Answer:

The correct option is;

Heads lands 3 times and tales lands 5 times in 8 coin flips

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound event is one in which the probability of more than one outcome or event to have occurred at the same time is sought. The probability of a compound event is the sum of the probabilities of the individual events less the probabilities already captured in both event probabilities

Answering compound event questions can be done by the use of a tabular or diagram format.

Therefore, the compound event in the list is heads lands 3 times and tales lands 5 times in 8 coin flips.

A population increases 3% each year. If the city is now 5 million, what will the population be in 5 years?

Step2247 [10]

5 million x 3% = 150,000
1 Year = 5,150,000

5.15 million x 3% = 154,500
2 Years = 5,304,500

5,304,500 x 3% = 159,135
3 Years = 5,463,635

5,463,635 x 3% = 163,909.05
4 Years = 5,627,544.05

5,627,544.05 x 3% = 168,826.322
5 Years = 5,796,370.37

After 5 years, the population will be 5,796,370.37

He rain caused the river to ride a total of 6 2/3 inches. The river was rising at an average of 2/3 of an inch each hour. How ma

Kobotan [32]

To find out how many hours it rained, divide the total rise in the river by the amount it rose every hour.

$\sf 6\dfrac{2}{3}\div\dfrac{2}{3}$

First convert the mixed number into an improper fraction. We do this by multiplying the denominator to the whole number, adding it to the numerator, which becomes our new numerator, and we keep the denominator the same:

$\sf\dfrac{20}{3}\div\dfrac{2}{3}$

When dividing fractions we flip(the reciprocal) the one we're dividing by and multiply:

$\sf\dfrac{20}{3}\times\dfrac{3}{2}$

Multiply the numerators and denominators together:

$\sf\dfrac{60}{6}$

Simplify by dividing:

$\boxed{\sf 10}$

So it rained for 10 hours.
