A coin is tossed 20 times. It lands heads four times. Compare the experimental probability to its theoretical probability. If th

Theoretical probability is based on the likelihood of events.

if a coin is flipped 20 times, and it has landed on heads 4 times, theres a 50% chance it would land on heads the 5th time.

it could be that heads gets more than tails or it could be vise versa.

The probability of getting two heads is 1 in 4.

On the unit circle, if s is the length of the arc subtended by a central angle θ, measured in radians, then s = θ.
Gennadij [26K]
<span>a. True The question is pretty much the entire definition of a radian. For an unit circle, its entire circumference is 2π and the entire circle has 2π radians. A quarter circle, or 90°, or π/2 radians, have 1/4th of the circumference. And 2π/4 is π/2. This natural relationship is WHY higher mathematics uses radians for the measurement of angles rather than arbitrary units such as degrees.</span>

Mila [183]

Answer:

-16

Step-by-step explanation:

-k² -(3k-5n)+4n k=-1 , n= -2

= -(-1)² - ( 3(-1) -5(-2) )+4(-2)

A father’s age now is three times the age that his son was 4 years ago. In
Mice21 [21]
Let ‘s’ be the son’s age 12 years ago.
Let ‘f’ be the father’s current age.

4 years ago, the son was:

s-4

So, his father is currently:

3(s-4)

=

3s-12

Therefore:

f = 3s-12

In twelve years, the son will be:

s+12

And the father will be:

f+12

This can also be written as:

3s-12+12 as the fathers younger age would be f = 3s+12

=

3s

So, we know that s+12 is half the fathers current age, meaning the father is currently 2(s+12) which is equivalent to 2s+24. Also, we know that the father is currently 3 times the sons age 12 years ago, so 3s (proven by the calculations we made above). Therefore, 2s+24=3s which means 24=s. We can then substitute this, and we will receive 24+12 = 36

Son’s current age: 36

We then substitute the son’s age 12 years ago into 2s+24 to give us the father’s age.

2(24)+24 = 72

Father’s current age: 72
