So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.

When you flip a biased coin the probability of getting a tail is 0.34. Find the probability of getting a head.
koban [17]

Answer:

If you want to know what the probability is to get at least one Heads, then that is the same as the probability of all the events (100%, or 1) minus the probability of getting all Tails.

There are 100 coins. 99 are fair, 1 is biased with both sides as heads. With a fair coin, the probability of three heads is 0.53=1/8. The probability of picking the biased coin: P(biased coin)=1/100.

jonny [76]

Answer:

B.(-5,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the rule of rotation if you were to have a 270* clockwise you would first switch the x and y values. Ex: (-7,5) -> (5,-7). next you would make the original y coordinate a negative. (5,-7) -> (-5,-7).
