Probability of flipping either a head or a tail = 1/2

probability of flipping 6 tails in a row (1/2)*6

<span>probability of flipping at least 1 head = 1 - (1/2)*6 = 63/64 </span>

Identify the conic that is formed by the intersection of the plane described and the double-napped cone.
DerKrebs [107]
<h3>Answer: B) hyperbola</h3>

If the cutting plane was parallel to the circular base of the cones, then we would have a circular cross section (assuming the plane doesnt cut through the vertex). However, we're told than the plane intersects both nappes, or cones, so it's not possible for the plane to be parallel to the base faces. We can rule out choice A.

We can rule out choice C and choice D for similar reasons. An ellipse only forms if the plane only cuts through one cone only, which is the same story for a parabola as well.

Find the center that eliminates the linear terms in the translation of 4x^2 - y^2 + 24x + 4y + 28 = 0.(-3, 2)(-3,- 2)(4, 0)
baherus [9]

Step 1

Given;

4x^2-y^2+24x+4y+28=0

Required; To find the center that eliminates the linear terms

Step 2

\begin{gathered} 4x^2-y^2+24x+4y=-28 \\ 4x^2+24x-y^2+4y=-28 \\ Complete\text{ the square }; \\ 4x^2+24x \\ \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=4 \\ b=24 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\frac{24}{2\times4} \\ d=\frac{24}{8} \\ d=3 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{24^2}{4\times4} \\ e=0-\frac{576}{16}=-36 \end{gathered}

Step 3

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

\begin{gathered} a(x+d)^2+e \\ 4(x+_{}3)^2-36 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-36-y^2+4y=-28 \\ 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\  \\  \end{gathered}

Step 4

Completing the square for -y²+4y

\begin{gathered} \text{use the form ax}^2+bx\text{ +c} \\ \text{where} \\ a=-1 \\ b=4 \\ c=0 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} consider\text{ the vertex }form\text{ of a }parabola \\ a(x+d)^2+e \\ d=\frac{b}{2a} \\ d=\text{ }\frac{4}{2\times-1} \\ d=\frac{4}{-2} \\ d=-2 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} Find\text{ the value of e using }e=c-\frac{b^2}{4a} \\ e=0-\frac{4^2}{4\times(-1)} \\  \\ e=0-\frac{16}{-4} \\ e=4 \end{gathered}

Step 5

Substitute a,d,e into the vertex form

\begin{gathered} a(y+d)^2+e \\ =-1(y+(-2))^2+4 \\ =-(y-2)^2+4 \end{gathered}

Step 6

\begin{gathered} 4(x+3)^2-y^2+4y=\text{ -28+36} \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2+4=-28+36 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=-28+36-4 \\ 4(x+3)^2-(y-2)^2=4 \\ \frac{4(x+3)^2}{4}-\frac{(y-2)^2}{4}=\frac{4}{4} \\ (x+3)^2-\frac{(y-2)^2}{2^2}=1 \end{gathered}

Step 7

\begin{gathered} \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1 \\ \text{This is the }form\text{ of a hyperbola.} \\ \text{From here } \\ a=1 \\ b=2 \\ k=2 \\ h=-3 \end{gathered}

Hence the answer is (-3,2)
