Answer:

Option C: 11.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of elements in sample space when a coin is flipped 10 times will be:

n(S) = 2^{10} \\= 1024

Let A be the event that the tails appear 7 times:

Then,

C_{(n,k)}=\frac{n!}{(k!)(n-k)!} \\where\\n=population\\k=picks\\In our case, k =7\\and\\n=10\\C_{(10,7)}= \frac{10!}{(7!)(10-3)!}\\= 120\\So, \\P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\P(A) = \frac{120}{1024} \\= 0.1171\\

Converting into percentage:

P(A) = 0.1171*100=11.7%

So, option C is correct ..

How is the graph of the parent function y=x² transformed to produce the graph of y=3(x+1)²?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Always the easiest way to study these questions is to get a graph. The one below shows

Red: y = x^2

Blue: y= 3(x + 1)^2

You will notice that (x+1)^2 shifts the graph Left -- the opposite to what you might think.

The 3 is a little harder. It narrows the red mother graph. Which choice says that?

The choice is between b and d. Why. Because the blue graph is to the left of the red one.

You have to learn the meaning of compressed. A better word might be narrows.
