According to me the probability is 1/4, because there are 4 possible outcomes when two coins are flipped - TT, TH, HT, HH.

<span>Also, would it matter if the coins are flipped one after other rather than together</span>

If you have a cubic polynomial of the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d and lets say it passes through the points (2,28), (-1, -5),

nikklg [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Solve using the first point</u>

<em>(2, 28)</em>

$28 = a(2)^3 + b(2)^2 + c(2) + d$

$28 = 8a + 4b + 2c + d$

<u>Step 2: Solve using the second point</u>

<em>(-1, -5)</em>

$-5 = a(-1)^3 + b(-1)^2 + c(-1) + d$

$-5 = -a + b - c + d$

<u>Step 3: Solve using the third point</u>

<em>(4, 220)</em>

$220 = a(4)^3 + b(4)^2 + c(4) + d$

$220 = 64a + 16b + 4c + d$

<u>Step 4: Solve using the fourth point</u>

<em>(-2, -20)</em>

$-20 = a(-2)^3 + b(-2)^2 + c(-2) + d$

$-20 = -8a + 4b - 2c + d$

<u>Step 5: Combine the first and fourth equations</u>

<u /> $28 - 20 = 8a - 8a + 4b + 4b + 2c - 2c + d + d$

$8 = 8b + 2d$

$8 - 8b = 8b - 8b + 2d$

$(8 -8b)/2 = 2d/2$

$4 - 4b = d$

<u>Step 6: Solve for c in the second equation</u>

$-5 + 5 = -a + b - c + d + 5$

$0 + c = -a + b - c + c + d + 5$

$c = -a + b + d + 5$

<u>Step 7: Substitute d with the stuff we got in step 5</u>

$c = -a + b + (4 - 4b) + 5$

$c = -a + b + 4 - 4b + 5$

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

<u>Step 8: Substitute d and c into the first equation</u>

<u /> $28 = 8a + 4b + 2(-a - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$28 = 8a + 4b - 2a - 6b + 18 + 4 - 4b$

$28 - 22 = 6a - 6b + 22 - 22$

$6 / 6 = (6a - 6b) / 6$

$1 + b = a - b + b$

$1 + b = a$

<u>Step 9: Substitute a, b, and c into the third equation</u>

$220 = 64(1 + b) + 16b + 4(-(1 + b) - 3b + 9) + (4 - 4b)$

$220 = 64 + 64b + 16b + 4(-1 - b - 3b + 9) + 4 - 4b$

$220 - 100 = 60b + 100 - 100$

$120 / 60 = 60b / 60$

$2 = b$

<u>Step 10: Find a using b = 2</u>

$a = b + 1$

$a = (2) + 1$

$a = 3$

<u>Step 11: Find c using a = 3 and b = 2</u>

$c = -a - 3b + 9$

$c = -(3) - 3(2) + 9$

$c = -3 - 6 + 9$

$c = 0$

<u>Step 12: Find d using b = 2</u>

$d = 4 - 4b$

$d = 4 - 4(2)$

$d = 4 - 8$

$d = -4$

Answer: $a = 3, b = 2, c = 0,d = -4$

All you have to do is subtract 3/8 from 7 which would give you 9 and 1/3

Kara used the linear model y=45,000+ 0.05x to predict her total salary from achieving total sales of x.

hoa [83]

Answer:

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 45,000 +.05x

Rewriting as

y = .05x +45,000

This is in slope intercept form ( y=mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

.05 is the slope and 45,000 is the y intercept

45,000 is the starting salary with zero sales

.05 is the amount multiplied by the number of sales that is added to her salary

For each sale we add .05 to her salary

Answer:

D. 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Find volume of shipping container:

2 2/3 = 8/3

2 x 1 = 2

8/3 x 2/1 = 16/3

Find volume of cube:

1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9 x 1/3 = 1/27

Find how many boxes fit in container:

16/3 ÷ 1/27

16/3 x 27/1

Simplify:

16/1 x 9/1 = 144/1
