Answer:

\frac{15}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

P(2 heads) = P(first flip = head)*P(second flip = head)

=> (\frac{1}{2} )(\frac{1}{2} ) = \frac{1}{4}

P(1 head) = P(first flip = head)*P(second flip = tail) + P(first flip = tail)*P(second flip = head)

= \frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{4} =\frac{1}{2}

P(no heads) = P(first flip = tail)*P(second flip = tail)

= \frac{1}{4}

E(winning) =10(\frac{1}{4} )+0(\frac{1}{2} )+5 (\frac{1}{4} )

= (\frac{10}{4} )+ (\frac{5}{4} )

= \frac{15}{4}

How do I solve this?
Korvikt [17]

The interior angles of any triangle always sum to 180°.

In the triangle, angles C and D are labeled congruent, so the missing angle has measure

180° - 2 (6x - 5)°

This angle is supplementary to the one labeled (11x + 1)°, which means

180° = (11x + 1)° + (180° - 2 (6x - 5)°)

Solve for x :

180° = (11x + 1)° + 180° - 2 (6x - 5)°

0 = (11x + 1)° - 2 (6x - 5)°

0 = (11x)° + 1° - (12x)° + 10°

(12x - 11x)° = 1° + 10°

x° = 11°

x = 11

write a percent between 25percent and 50 percent then write it as a decimal and as a fraction in simplest form
Greeley [361]
A percent between 25 and 50 can be 35%

35% as a decimal is 0.35

35% as a fraction = 35/100

35/100 simplest form = 7/20

hope this helps

What is the shape of the cross-section formed when a plane containing line ac and line eh intersects this cube? what is the area
ioda

The shape of the cross-section formed when a plane containing line AC and line EH intersects the cube is a rectangle.

<h3>What is the explanation for the submission above?</h3>

Note that the Area of the cross-section = 16 sqrt(2) = 22.63 sq. units. The justification for this is the properties of the Cubes.

  • The top face ABCD is parallel and congruent to the bottom face EFGH....(A)
  • Also, sides AE and CH are perpendicular to faces ABCD and EFGH ....(B)

Mathematically, we can righty state that Diagonals AC and EH are congruent .....(C)

Given the justification by (A), congruent top and bottom faces, let us look at the cross-section ACHE.

AC is congruent and parallel to  EH   (A) & (C)

EA & HC are perpendicular to AC      (B)

Hence, the quadrilateral ACHE is a rectangle.

Step 2

Length of diagonal AC = sqrt(4^2+4^2) = 4 sqrt(2)  Pythagoras theorem.

AE = CH = DG = 4    We state this because the of the properties of cube, all sides equal;

Hence, the Area of ACHE = 4* 4sqrt(2) = 16 sqrt(2)

= 22.63 sq. units
