A fair coin is tossed repeatedly. What is the probability that three heads in a row will occur before a tail followed by two hea
Masteriza [31]

The probability that you can get N heads in a row would be:

Let <span>p</span> be the probability of flipping a heads. Let <span>x</span> be number of flips needed to achieve <span>h </span>consecutive heads. The solution is <span><span>E(x) = (<span><span>1−<span>p^h) / (</span></span><span><span>p^h</span>(1−p))</span></span></span></span>

This expression may be derived as follows. The probability of being successful immediately is <span><span>p^r.</span></span> However, one might get a tails immediately. In that case, the number of flips needed is <span><span>1+E(x) </span></span>(one flip has been used and we are back to the original position). We might get a heads and then a tails. In this case two flips have been used and we are back to the original position. Continue this up to <span><span>h−1</span></span> heads followed by a tails in which case <span>h</span> flips have been used and we are back to the original position.

Solve the simultaneous equations 4x+8y=-4 2y-5x=23
ad-work [718]

Answer:

x = -4,  y = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify the 1st equation by dividing each term by 4 to get:

x + 2y = -1

-5x + 2y = 23

Subtract to get: 6x = -24

x = -4

find 'y':    2y - 5(-4) = 23

               2y + 20 = 23

               2y = 3

                y = 3/2
