If a person tosses a coin 23 times, how many ways can he get 11 heads

Mathematics

Tossing a coin is a binomial experiment.

Now lets say there are 'n' repeated trials to get heads. Each of the trials can result in either a head or a tail.

All of these trials are independent since the result of one trial does not affect the result of the next trial.

Now, for 'n' repeated trials the total number of successes is given by

_{r}^{n}\textrm{C}

where 'r' denotes the number of successful results.

In our case n=23 and r=11,

Substituting the values we get,

_{11}^{23}\textrm{C}=\frac{23!}{11!\times 12!}

\frac{23!}{11!\times 12!}=1352078

Therefore, there are 1352078 ways to get heads if a person tosses a coin 23 times.

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2. – y= -7. Fully
g100num [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hmmmmm you did not give the full equation for the original line.

However, parallel lines have identical slopes. Whatever coefficient (m) is associated with the x value, will be the slope of the parallel line when the equation is put in the form

y = mx + b

Write the expansion of each binomial. (x-y)^4
TEA [102]
When you expand the binomial, you isolate each of the parts.
So, (x-y)^4 would turn into...

x^4 - y^4

The powers stay the same because (outside the parenthesis) you multiply them with whatever is inside the parenthesis. In this case, would be 1. All variables and numbers without a listed power have a power of one. Multiply 4*1 to get 4.

Help this confusing no matter how any times I do it
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The variable 8. Equation is 16 + 12x = 112.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that she spent $16 dollars on magazines, so we can put it in the equation (16 + x= ?). We also know that the total is $112, so we can also add that (16+ x= 112). We don't know how many books she got, but we do know how much they cost (16 + 12x=112. So that makes  the books the variable (X).

To find the variable we need to take out the magazines from the price. 112-16=96. Now we're left with 12x=96. Now all we have to do is divide 96 by 12, which equals 8.

Sorry everything is so long, I tried to make it short as possible
