Answer:0.565

Step-by-step explanation:

Hat contain 100 coins out of which 99 is fair and one is double headed.

Probability of getting 7 heads is sum of Head through fair coin+heads through biased coin

Probability of getting a head through a fair coin=0.5

P(7 heads)=0.99\times 0.5^7+0.01\times 1

P(Double head |7 heads )=\frac{Probability\ of\ 7\ heads\ and\ double\ headed}{probability\ of\ 7\ heads}

P(Double head |7 heads )=\frac{0.01\times 1}{0.99\times 0.5^7+0.01\times 1}

=\frac{0.01}{0.99\times 0.0078+0.01}=0.565

What is 4-2x+8+5x simplified
sveta [45]

Answer: it is 3 • (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation: We move all terms to the left:

4-2x+8-(+5x)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x-(+5x)+12=0

We get rid of parentheses

-2x-5x+12=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x+12=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-7x=-12

x=-12/-7

x=1+5/7We move all terms to the left:

4-2x+8-(+5x)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x-(+5x)+12=0

We get rid of parentheses

-2x-5x+12=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-7x+12=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-7x=-12

x=-12/-7

x=1+5/7
