Answer:

If a fair coin is tossed three times, sample = 2^3 = 8 (hhh, hht, hth, thh, htt, tht, tth, ttt) where h=head and t=tail.

Probability of getting one:

Outcomes with one head (h) = 3

P(1 h) = 3/8 = 0.375

Write an equation for the line parallel to the given line that contains C<br> C(2,6); y= -4x + 7

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$y=-4x+14$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

we have

$y=-4x+7$

This is the equation of the given line in slope intercept form

The slope is $m=-4$

step 2

Find the slope of the line parallel to the given line

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

therefore

The slope of the line parallel to to the given line is $m=-4$

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-4$

$C\ (2,6)$

substitute

$y-6=-4(x-2)$

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

$y-6=-4(x-2)$

isolate the variable y

$y-6=-4x+8$

$y=-4x+8+6$

$y=-4x+14$

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\frac{5}{6} +\frac{6}{18}$

$-\frac{5}{6} +\frac{2}{6}$ reduced

$\frac{-5+2}{6}$ transformed the expression to make it easier

$-\frac{3}{6}$ add

$-\frac{1}{2}$ reduce

Ming weighed a bag of soil for a science experiment. The weight was 2.003 kg. She then removed 0.520 kg of soil from the bag. Ho

natima [27]

Just subtract 2.003 and 0.520 which gives you 1.483 so there is 1.483 kilogram of soil remaining hope this helps!
