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.

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations Negative 4 x + y = 8 and x minus 5 y = 17?

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

(-3, -4).

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + y = 8

x - 5y = 17 Multiply this by 4:

4x - 20y = 68 Add this to the first equation:

-19y = 76

y = 76/-19

y = -4.

Plug this into the second equation:

x - 5(-4) = 17

x = 17 - 20

x = -3.

CHECK this result in equation 1:

-4(-3) + -4 = 8

12 - 4 = 8

8 = 8 <------ OK.

An art history professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme.A: Top 5% of scoresB: Scores below th

adoni [48]

Answer:

Grade B score:

$76 \leq x \leq 89$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73.3

Standard Deviation, σ = 9.7

We are given that the distribution of score on test is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

B: Scores below the top 5% and above the bottom 62%

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.38$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 0.305\\\\x = 76.26$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

$P(X < 0.95) = \\\\P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.95$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 1.645\\\\x = 89.26$

Thus, the numerical value of score to achieve grade B is

$76 \leq x \leq 89$
