Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We only care about the third coin

we could get heads or tails on the third flip

P (third coin will be heads) = outcome heads / total

=1/2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Trials are independent

If the coin is unbiased,

P(T) = P(H) = ½ for every trial

Identify the x-intercepts of the function below f(x)=x^2+12x+24

damaskus [11]

ANSWER:

x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

SOLUTION:

Given, $f(x)=x^{2}+12 x+24$ -- eqn 1

x-intercepts of the function are the points where function touches the x-axis, which means they are zeroes of the function.

Now, let us find the zeroes using quadratic formula for f(x) = 0.

$X=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here, for (1) a = 1, b= 12 and c = 24

$X=\frac{-(12) \pm \sqrt{(12)^{2}-4 \times 1 \times 24}}{2 \times 1}$

$\begin{array}{l}{X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{144-96}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{48}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{16 \times 3}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm 4 \sqrt{3}}{2}} \\ {X=\frac{2(-6+2 \sqrt{3})}{2}, \frac{2(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}{2}} \\\\ {X=(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}\end{array}$

Hence the x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

Where is the exact volume of the sphere

baherus [9]

$\bf \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\ V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=12.3 \end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{4\pi (12.3)^3}{3}\implies \stackrel{\pi =3.14}{V\approx 7790.83}$
