Answer:

About 1/8 of a chance or a 12.5% chance

Step-by-step explanation:

See, we already know that the chance of one head is going to be one-half, right?

So we can multiply that fraction by itself by as many times as the coin is flipped in order to get our probability.

So 1/2*1/2*1/2 = 1/8

1/8 is also equal to the decimal .125, and percentages are based of the number one, so as a percentage it should look like this: 12.5%

To be more in depth with it, let's look at this:

Based off this chart, we can also identify that there is a total of 8 possible outcomes, so it is not a coincidence that there is a 1/8 chance of getting heads 3 times.

Answer and Explanation:

The probability of flipping a coin to get heads is 1/2 or 50%. If you multiply this, by how many times you flip it, or 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2, then you get 1/8 or 12.5% chance that she will get heads 3 times in a row

Mrs William has a prized box with different colored tickets. Each ticket results in different type of prize.
Lera25 [3.4K]

\text{ Answer:} \text{ Probability that he chooses a yellow ticket and then a purple ticket }= \frac{3}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of green tickets =3

Number of yellow tickets = 4

Number of purple tickets = 3

Total number of tickets = 3+4+3=10

Now,

As we know that Pedro select a ticket and replace it and then select another ticket , total number of outcomes will never change it will be 10 only for each case.

Probability that he chooses a yellow ticket and then a purple ticket is given by

\frac{4}{10}\times \frac{3}{10}\\\\=\frac{12}{100}\\\\=\frac{3}{25}

V=pi*r^2*h/3
=> h=3V/(pi*r^2)
V=6pi^2 cm^3
r=3 cm

h=3V/(pi*r^2)=6*pi^2 / (pi*3^2) = 2pi  cm

Height = 2 pi cm
