Answer:

The experamental probability that the coin lands on head is 50 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Experiment:

A coin is Toss

Let the Sample Space be 'S' that is total number of outcomes for a coin has been tossed = { Head, Tail }

∴ n ( S ) = 2

Let A be the event of getting a Head on tossing a coin i.e { Head }

∴ n( A ) = 1

Now,

$\textrm{Probability} =\frac{\textrm{outcomes for the experiment}}{\textrm{total number of outcomes}}$

Substituting the values we get

$P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\\\P(A) = \frac{1}{2} \\\\P(A) = 0.5\\\\P(A) = 50\%$

The experamental probability that the coin lands on head is 50 %

REPEATED REASONING What happens to the circumference and the area of a circle when you double the radius? triple the radius?

GalinKa [24]

Answer: So when you double the radius, the area goes up by 4 times because 2 squared is 4. The area will always go up by the square of how much the radius goes up. By contrast, the circumference will only double -- from 12.56 to 25.12 because you do not square the radius (or diameter) -- you just multiply it by pi.

A flash disk has the capacity of storing 1 megabyte of data. How many kilobytes of data can be stored in the same flash disk

Luden [163]

For this sort of problem, you need to be familiar with prefixes.

So:

megabyte = $1 *10^6$ bytes

kilobyte = $1*10^3$ bytes

and a regular byte would just be $1$

Now, you will need to do a conversion:

$1megabyte*\frac{1*10^6bytes}{1megabyte}*\frac{1*10^{-3}kilobyte}{1byte}$

I'm going to explain this just in case, but we convert megabytes to regular bytes in the first half by using the information I gave you above. (In one megabyte, there are $1*10^6$ bytes!)

In the second fraction thought, remember one kilobyte is $1*10^3$ bytes. However, you usually only see one of each thing on the bottom of fractions, so you need to add a negative sign to the 3. (technically you could just do $\frac{1kilobyte}{1*10^3bytes}$ , but I think it is more correct to do write it out how I did).
