Answer:

<u>P(three tails) = 27/125 or 21.6%</u>

<u>P(two tails followed by one head) = 18/125 or 14.4%.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the questions correctly:

Probability of getting a head when a biased coin is tossed = 2/5

therefore,

Probability of getting a tails when a biased coin is tossed = 3/5

2. Find the following probabilities and select the correct solution.

P(three tails) =

3/5 * 3/5 * 3/5 = 27/125 or 21.6%

P(two tails followed by one head) =

3/5 * 3/5 * 2/5 = 18/125 or 14.4%.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

$22843.75

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that $18.275 is $18,275

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 18275 × 0.05 × 5 = 4568.75

I = $ 4,568.75

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 18,275.00

at a rate of 5% per year

for 5 years is $ 4,568.75.
