What is 100 percent of 158
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

It's 63.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 158 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100%=158.

Step 4: In the same vein, x%=100.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=158(1).

x%=100(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

100%/x% = 158/100

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

x%/100% = 100/158

x= 63.29%

Therefore, 100 is 63.29% of 158.

If a fair coin is flipped 15 times, what is the probability that there are more heads than tails?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The probability that there are more heads than tails is equal to \dfrac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of flips is an odd number, there can't be an equal number of heads and tails. In other words, there are either

  • more tails than heads, or,
  • more heads than tails.

Let the event that there are more heads than tails be A. \lnot A (i.e., not A) denotes that there are more tails than heads. Either one of these two cases must happen. As a result, P(A) + P(\lnot A) = 1.

Additionally, since this coin is fair, the probability of getting a head is equal to the probability of getting a tail on each toss. That implies that (for example)

  • the probability of getting 7 heads out of 15 tosses will be the same as
  • the probability of getting 7 tails out of 15 tosses.

Due to this symmetry,

  • the probability of getting more heads than tails (A is true) is equal to
  • the probability of getting more tails than heads (A is not true.)

In other words P(A) = P(\lnot A).

Combining the two equations:

\left\{\begin{aligned}&P(A) + P(\lnot A) = 1 \cr &P(A) = P(\lnot A)\end{aligned}\right.,

P(A) = P(\lnot A) = \dfrac{1}{2}.

In other words, the probability that there are more heads than tails is equal to \dfrac{1}{2}.

This conclusion can be verified using the cumulative probability function for binomial distributions with \dfrac{1}{2} as the probability of success.

\begin{aligned}P(A) =& P(n \ge 8) \cr =& \sum \limits_{i = 8}^{15} {15 \choose i} (0.5)^{i} (0.5)^{15 - i}\cr =& \sum \limits_{i = 8}^{15} {15 \choose i} (0.5)^{15}\cr =& (0.5)^{15} \left({15 \choose 8} + {15 \choose 9} + \cdots + {15 \choose 15}\right) \cr =& (0.5)^{15} \left({15 \choose (15 - 8)} + {15 \choose (15 - 9)} + \cdots + {15 \choose (15 - 15)} \right) \cr =& (0.5)^{15} \left({15 \choose 7} + {15 \choose 6} + \cdots + {15 \choose 0}\right)\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}\phantom{P(A)} =& \sum \limits_{i = 0}^{7} {15 \choose i} (0.5)^{15}\cr =& P(n \le 7) \cr =& P(\lnot A)\end{aligned}.

OFFERING 10 POINTS
ELEN [110]

Answer:

  • slope: 0
  • equation: y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The y-coordinates of points A and B are both -2, so there is no change in the y-value between those points. The x-coordinates differ by 4, so the slope is ...

... slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 0/4 = 0

b) The y-value is constant at -2 for any value of x, so the equation of the line is ...

... y = -2
