The total cost is $66.14. Hope this helps.
I believe that it would be the first one. They are looking for the distance from the y-axis, so the x value doesnt matter. 6 is 6 units away from the y-axis, and -6 is also 6 units away from the y-axis. Hope I helped!
Weird. I think you just need to look if the point falls on the shaded area. But only (-5,5) does ...
The correct order is:
the probability of heads on 2nd and 4th toss only;
the probability of at least 3 tails in a row;
the probability of 3 or more heads;
the probability of consecutive tails; and
the probability of at least 2 tails.
There are 16 outcomes in the sample space.
There are 8 ways of having consecutive tails; this gives the probability 8/16.
There is 1 way of having heads on the 2nd and 4th toss only, making the probability 1/16.
There are 3 ways to have at least 3 tails in a row, making the probability 3/16.
There are 11 ways to have at least 2 tails, making the probability 11/16.
There are 5 ways to have at least 3 heads, making the probability 5/16.
