Answer:

256

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the order of the results from each other doesn't matter. e.g HHHTTTTT, TTTTTHHH are two different outcomes.

There are two possible outcomes for each flip, heads,H or tails, T

After eight flips, using the rule of product, the possible outcomes or sequences is equal to

2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2= 2^8=256

General formula for total number of outcomes when a coin is flipped is given by 2 raised to power n, where n is the number of flips, in this case, n is 8,  2^8=256

Jerry multiplied 3.04 x 7.091 and got the product 2.155664. Is his answer reasonable? Why or why not?
Readme [11.4K]

First we multiply the numbers ignoring the decimal and then place the decimal in the position

3.04 *7.091 = 2155664

Now the first number has two digits after the decimal and the second number has three digits after the decimal.

Therefore in the final result we have to move the decimal (2+3) =5 place from the left,

So the answer would be 21.55664

So, the correct answer is 21.55664

Jerry calculated the answer correctly , but made an error in the placement of the decimal point.  The answer is not reasonable because 2.155664 and 21.55664 mean two completely different answer far apart from each other
