The Law of Large Numbers states that as the number of trials of an experiment increases, the experimental probability of an even

t occurring approaches the theoretical probability of the event occurring. Jake received a "magic" coin from his uncle. He flipped it 100 times, and found that it came up heads 64% of the time. He flipped it another 500 times, and it came up heads 57% of the time. He then flipped it 1000 times, and it came up heads 58% of the time. Then, he flipped it 1500 times, and it came up heads 62% of the time. Based on the Law of Large Numbers, what do you think the theoretical probability of the magic coin coming up heads is? Explain how you could test your hypothesis.

The law of large number states that , if number of trials increases in an experiment , in a fair trial where each outcome has same chance of occurring or having equal probabilities,when total number of trials  goes higher and higher the probabilities of each single outcome becomes approximately equal.→→In case of Experimental Probability

The Coin Possessed by Jake is a Magic coin.

Now Outcomes received by jake when he tosses the coin certain number of times.He flipped it 100 times, and found that it came up heads 64% of the time. He flipped it another 500 times, and it came up heads 57% of the time. He then flipped it 1000 times, and it came up heads 58% of the time. Then, he flipped it 1500 times, and it came up heads 62% of the time.

Based on the information provided , it appears that coin is not fair . It is  Unbiased.So , if we apply law of large numbers here after number of trials will go higher and higher , the chances of coming head will be more than tail i.e theoretical probability of the magic coin coming up heads is> 50%.

To test my hypothesis i have used the information provided by Jake, which shows that coin is not fair. The probability of head has more than tail i.e by 14%, 7%,8% and 12%.

Identify the volume of the composite figure rounded to the nearest tenth. HELP PLEASE!!
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

V = 115.3 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The left part of the figure shows a cube of side length 4.2 ft.  The volume of a cube is V = s³, where s is the side length.  Hence, the volume of this particular cube is V = (4.2 ft)³ = 74.088.

The volume of a pyramid is V = (1/3)(base area)(height).

Here V = (1/3)(4.2 ft)²(7 ft) = 41.16 ft³.

Summing up the two distinct areas, we get V = 41.16 ft³ + 74.088 ft³, or

V = 115.3 ft³ after rounding up to the nearest tenth.

The value of x will be equal to x = 79.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

Triangle is a shape made of three sides in a two-dimensional plane. the sum of the three angles is 180 degrees.

For an isosceles triangle, the value of two opposite angles is equal and the opposite sides are also equal.

The Sum of the three angles is equal to 180 degrees so the third angle will be calculated as:-

Angle = 180 - 142 - 19 = 19

Now applying Lami's theorem in the triangle we will get the third side.

\dfrac{sin\angle A}{a} = \dfrac{sin\angle B}{b} = \dfrac{sin\angle C}{c}

\dfrac{Sin 19}{42}= \dfrac{Sin142}{x}

x = \dfrac{42\times Sin 142}{Sin19}

x = 79

Therefore the value of x will be equal to x = 79.
