The probability of obtaining nine heads in a row when flipping a coin is

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: The probability is about 0.2%.

The probability of flipping heads one time is 0.5, 50% or 1/2.

To flip heads 9 times in a row, we have to multiply 1/2 by itself 9 times.

(1/2)^9 = 1/512 or about 0.2%

It should only happen once every 512 times.

Penny and Kenny have the same number of football cards.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Hello,
Penny==>a*10 (a is an integer)
Kenny==>b*18 (b is an integer)

a*10=b*18==>a=9*b/5 ==>b=5+n*5
a=9*(5+5*n)/5=9*(1+n)=9+9n
If n=0 then a=9 and b=5 :Number od cards: 9*10=10, 5*18=90
if n=1 then a=19 and b=10: Number of cards: 19*10=190>100 to exclude.

So number of cards=90
