The more times you do a test, the more accurate the results will be.

Since there are only 2 options/sides the probability should be 1/2 for both heads and tails. 

Her error was both mathematical (her experimental probability number didn't make sense) and her lack of sufficient testing.

The school is planting a circular garden. If the
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

<u>The area of the circular garden is 28.3 square feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that the area of a circle is π * r², therefore if the diameter of the circular garden is 6 feet, the area is:

Diameter = 6 feet ⇒ radius = (6/2) = 3 feet

Area of the circular garden = π * 3²

Area of the circular garden = 3.1416 * 9

Area of the circular garden = 28.2744

<u>Area of the circular garden = 28.3 square feet</u>

I have a series of 2 questions.
Margarita [4]
1)
I:y=3x-4
II:9x-3y=14


substitute y into II:
9x-3*(3x-4)=14
9x-9x+12=14
12=14

this is obviously not equal so there is no solution, the lines are parallel

2)
I:y=4x+6
II:5x-y=6

substitute y into II:
5x-(4x+6)=6
5x-4x-6=6
x=12
substiute x into II:
5*12-y=6
-y=6-60
-y=-54
y=54

the solution is (12,54)
