For each coin, there are <u>2 outcomes</u>, heads (H) or tails (T), so for the <u>3 coins</u>, the number of outcomes are:

2 x 2 x 2 = <u>8 outcomes:</u>

HHH / HHT / HTH / THH / TTT / TTH / THT / HTT

Out of all these outcomes, there are <u>3 ways</u>, we get exactly 2 Heads:

HHT / HTH / THH

So, the probability of exactly 2 coins landing on Heads is 3/8, or 0.375

snow_lady [41]

ANSWER

Biodiversity index = 0.096

EXPLANATION

Given 7 different organisms with their individual numbers.

Biodiversity Index is:

\text{  }\frac{Total\text{ number of species}}{Total\text{ number of individuals in the area}}

i.e:

\begin{gathered} Biodiversity\text{ Index = }\frac{7}{15+2+30+1+4+16+5} \\ \text{ = }\frac{7}{73} \\ \text{ = 0.09589} \end{gathered}

Hence, the Biodiversity Index of Fraya's local park is 0.096. This is a low biodiversity since it's closer to 0.

The shortest leg of a triangle is 1 feet shorter than the other leg.The hypotenuse of this triangle is 5 feet. what are the leng
givi [52]

Answer:

  • shortest: 3 ft
  • other: 4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle with hypotenuse 5 that has legs that differ by 1 is the 3-4-5 right triangle. The legs are 3 ft and 4 ft.

__

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you have never heard of a 3-4-5 right triangle, you can figure the leg lengths algebraically using the Pythagorean theorem. Let x represent the length of the "other" leg. Then the shortest is (x-1). The Pythagorean theorem tells you ...

  5^2 = (x)^2 +(x -1)^2

  25 = 2x^2 -2x +1

  12 = x^2 -x = x(x -1)

Factors of 12 that differ by 1 are 3 and 4 or -3 and -4. We want x to be positive, so the value of interest is x=4

The "other" leg is 4 ft; the shortest leg is 3 ft.
