Answer: 1/4 or 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The chance of flipping tails is 1/2, so you multiply 1/2*1/2 (for the 2 flips) to get 1/4 (1/2^2=1/4).

Answer:

x = 5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

$x+\dfrac{2}{13}=\dfrac{7}{13}\\\\ x+\dfrac{2}{13}-\dfrac{2}{13}=\dfrac{7}{13}-\dfrac{2}{13}\\\\x+0=\dfrac{7-2}{13}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{5}{13}=0.38462}$

What are the vertical asymptotes of the function f(x) =5x+5/x2 + x-2

katen-ka-za [31]

let's recall that the vertical asymptotes for a rational expression occur when the denominator is at 0, so let's zero out this one and check.

$\bf \cfrac{5x+5}{x^2+x-2}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{zeroing out the denominator}~\hfill }{x^2+x-2=0\implies (x+2)(x-1)=0}\implies \stackrel{\textit{vertical asymptotes}}{ \begin{cases} x=-2\\ x=1 \end{cases}}$

What percentage of 128 is 96?

katrin [286]

So, since 100% = 128, x should equal 96, and we are trying to find x.
Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
(100/x) * x = (128/96) * x
Cancel out the x's on the left side so
100 = 1.333(x)
75 = x
96 is 75% of 128

He still has 75% of his income left because 1500/375=4 so he spent 1/4 of his check and has 3/4 left.
