If two coins are tossed together, then the chance for falling with heads up is 1/2. The chance for tails is also 1/2. Therefore,

the chance that both coins will land on heads is _1/4___. The chance for the first coin to fall on tails and the second on heads is also ___1/4____. However, one head and one tail can be obtained if the first coin to fall on heads and the second on tails. There, the total probability of obtaining a head on one coin and a tail on the other is ___1/2___. The chance for both coins to land on tails is __1/4____. In summary, two coins tossed together are expected to land on heads _1/4_ of the time; one head and one tail __1/2___ of the time; two tails __1/4___ of the time. Stated as a ratio instead of fractions, the expected result is _____4:4 or just_____.

Answer:

Stated as a ratio instead of fractions, the expected result is _____4:4 or just_____.

1

Step-by-step explanation:

In this particular case, the result of the two coins tossed together landing on heads 1/4 of the time; one head and one tail 1/2 of the time; and two tails 1/4 of the time is equal to 1.

This is because 1/4 + 1/2 + 1/4 = 1.  It is the sum of all probabilities in the set or distribution.  This sum is always equal to 1.  Therefore, the sum of a probability distribution is the collection of the probabilities that define the chance of the various outcomes of an event or experiment.

After a storm, two street lights with the same length are leaning against each
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

c = 4.79 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete without a picture; find the question with the attachment.

Two poles AD and DB of same length are leaning against each other.

Distance between the poles (AB) = 45 feet

m(∠ADB) = 180°- (60 + 50)°

               = 70°

By sine rule,

\frac{sin50}{AD}=\frac{sin70}{45}=\frac{sin60}{DB}

AD=\frac{45\times (sin50)}{sin70}

      = 36.68 ft

Similarly,

DB = \frac{45\times sin60}{sin70}

     = 41.47 ft

Now c = DB - AD

           = 41.47 - 36.68

           = 4.79 feet
