The probabilities:

-Two break points are selected randomly (and distributed uniformly) on the stick.

The stick is first broken into two pieces. The longest (or rather, not the shortest) is then broken into two.

-The stick is first broken into two pieces. A piece randomly selected with probability 1/2 is then broken into two.

-The stick is first broken into two pieces. A piece randomly selected with the probability proportional to its length is then broken into two.

Tristan has some dimes and some quarters. He has at least 20 coins worth at most $4.25 combined. If Tristan has 10 dimes, determ
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The maximum number of quarters that he could have is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of quarters he could have. If he has 10 dimes and has at least 20 coins, then

→ x + 10 >= 20

→ x >= 10    (1)

His coins worth at most $4.25. Also, it is known that 1 dollar is equal to 100 cents, 1 dime is equal to 10 cents and 1 quarter is equal to 25 cents.

→ (x * 25) + (10 * 10)  <= (4.25 * 100)

→ 25x  + 100 <= 425

→ 25x <= 325

→ x <= 13  (2)

If we combine the equation 1 and 2:

10 <= x <= 13

The maximum value of x is 13

6. The mass of one coin is 16.718 grams. The mass of a second coin is 27.22 grams. How much greater is the mass of the second co
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The mass is greater by 10.502 grams. If you subtract 27.33 from 16.718, you get  10.502. Therefore, the mass of the second coin is greater than the first coin by 10.502 grams.
