Answer:

the probability of a coin landing on heads 3 times in a row is 1/8 or 0.125 or 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

the chance of landing heads once is 1/2, for it to be 2 times in a row its 1/4, and 3 times in a row its 1/8, basically every time you want to do it in a row you multiply 1/2, so for example for this question you multiply 1/2 by however times you want the coin to land on heads in a row, (1/2) X(1/2)X(1/2)

kkurt [141]

Answer: $f(t) = 4000000000( 1 .019)^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, According to the question, The population of the world is 4 billion (approx).

Again According to the question, The world's population has grown at an average rate of 1.9 percent per year since 1945.

Therefore, after 1975 the growth rate will remains same.

Thus, the population of the world after t years,

$f(t) = 4000000000( 1+\frac{1.9}{100} )^t$ (By the formula $A = P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t$ )

⇒ $f(t) = 4000000000( 1.019 )^t$

Where 1.019 is the growth rate and 4 billion is the initial population.

Quadrilateral ABCD has vertices A(-3, 4), B(1, 3), C(3, 6), and D(1, 6). Match each set of vertices of quadrilateral EFGH with t

Maru [420]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First plot points A, B, C and D on the coordinate plane and connect them to get quadrilateral ABCD. Then plot the vertices E, F, G, H of the quadrilateral EFGH in each case.

For each of these cases there are attached diagrams

1 case - reflection acraoss the x-axis

2 case - translation 5 units down

3 case - reflection across the y-axis

4 case - translation 7 units right
