The total number of different outcomes of the toss are 256.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Coin is flipped 8 times.

Number of different outcomes, n = ?

A coin is ﬂipped eight times where each ﬂip comes up either

heads or tails.

Considering the order of the results from each toss does matter.

Each toss has two possibilities and the number of toss is 8.

Thus, the total outcome of the toss = 2⁸

n = 256

Therefore, total number of different outcomes of the toss are 256.

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 10x - y = 2?

matrenka [14]

Answer:

D. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the equation, we first need to put the equation into slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

So first, we need to get y by itself.

10x-y=2

Subtract 10x from both sides.

-y=-10x+2

Then, divide -1 on both sides.

y=10x-2

Slope=10

Alejandra's Tapas Bar offers a menu consisting of $9$ savory and $5$ sweet dishes. You can also get a mix-and-match plate consis

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of savory dishes is 9 and the number of sweet dished is 5.

Denoting all the 9 savory dishes by $p_1, p_2,...,p_9$ , and all the sweet dishes by $q_1,q_2,...,q_5$ .

The possible different mix-and-match plates consisting of two savory dishes are as follows:

There are 9 plates with $q_1$ from sweet plates which are $(q_1, p_1), (q_1, p_2), ..., (q_1,p_9).$

There are 9 plates with $q_2$ from sweet plates which are $(q_2, p_1), (q_2, p_2), ..., (q_2,p_9).$

Similarly, there are 9 plated for each $q_3, q_4$ and $q_5.$

Hence, the total number of the different mix-and-match plates consisting of two savory dishes

$= 9+9+9+9+9= 9\times5=45$
