Max tosses a Fair coin 3 times what is the probability of getting heads in the first two trials and Tails in the last trial

Gennadij [26K]

.5 * .5 *.5 = 1/8
-
-
the probability to have head is .5 so the probability of tails 1-.5
-
then the first time is head
the second time is head
the third time is tail
so
.5 * .5 *.5 = 1/8

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ,2. 25. Point Q is the center of dilation. Line

abruzzese [7]

The distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.

<h2>Given that</h2>

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ 2. 25.

Point Q is the center of dilation.

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S prime T prime.

The length of QT is 1. 2 and the length of QS is 2.

The length of SS prime is x and the length of TT prime is 1. 5.

<h3>We have to determine</h3>

What is x, the distance between points S' and S?

<h3>According to the question</h3>

Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ, 2.25.

Also, SQ = 2 units, TQ = 1.2 units, TT'=1.5, SS' = x.

Since the line ST is dilated to S'T' with the center of dilation Q, the triangles STQ and S'T'Q must be similar.

We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.

So, from ΔSTQ and ΔS'T'Q.

$\dfrac{SQ}{S'Q} = \dfrac{TQ}{T'Q}\\
\\
\dfrac{SQ}{SQ+SS} = \dfrac{TQ}{TQ+TT'}\\
\\ 
\dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{1.2}{1.2+1.5}\\\rm 
\\
\dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{1.2}{2.7}\\\\ \dfrac{2}{2+x} = \dfrac{12}{27}\\\\2(27) = (2+x) 12\\\\ 54 = 24 + 12x\\
\\
12x = 54-24\\
\\
12x=30\\
\\
x = \dfrac{30}{12}\\
\\
x = 2.5$

Hence, the distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.

The image shows three tennis balls enclosed in a cylindrical can. Choose all that are correct. The volume of a single tennis bal

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The volume of a single tennis ball is $14.14\ in^{3}$

The volume of three tennis balls is $42.42\ in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the volume of a single tennis ball

we know that

The volume of a sphere is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

where r is the radius of the sphere

In this problem

$r=3/2=1.5\ in$

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (1.5)^{3}$

$V=14.14\ in^{3}$

Step 2

Find the volume of the can

we know that

the volume of the cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2} h$

where r is the radius of the cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

in this problem we have

$r=3/2=1.5\ in$

$h=8.4\ in$

substitute

$V=\pi (1.5)^{2}(8.4)$

$V=59.38\ in^{3}$

Statement

<u>case A)</u> The volume of a single tennis ball is $14.14\ in^{3}$

The statement is true

See the procedure in Step 1

<u>case B)</u> The volume of the can is $56.55\ in^{3}$

The statement is false

The volume of the can is $59.38\ in^{3}$ --> see the procedure Step 2

<u>case C)</u> The empty space inside the can is $14.13\ in^{3}$

The statement is false

To find the empty space subtract the volume of three tennis ball from the volume of the can

$59.38\ in^{3}-3*14.14\ in^{3}=16.96\ in^{3}$

<u>case D)</u> The volume of three tennis balls is $42.42\ in^{3}$

The statement is true

To find the volume of three tennis balls multiply the volume of a single tennis ball by three

$14.14*3=42.42\ in^{3}$
