or or tails) SHOW YOUR WORK
Mathematics

Answer:

1 in 8 chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a coin flips is has two outcomes: heads or tails, obviously.

Whenever you have a 50/50 probability, in this case a coin, every time you add another coin the amount of outcomes squares, or multiplies by the number of outcomes, and since we are using a coin, two. To reiterate, say we were using a die, a die is a cube, a six sided shape, so there are six outcomes. The chances of getting all sixes with one die is 1 in 6. Add another die and try to get all sixes, the chances become 1 in 36. We got this by multiplying our out comes by our outcomes

1 coin: 2 outcomes

2 coins: 4 outcomes

3 coins: 8 outcomes

Another thing:

Don't be fooled by questions being specific by saying "all heads" or "all tails"...

This is a wording trick, no matter the outcome, the chances will always be equal.

Good luck :)

Simplify 25p^6q^9 / 45p^8q^4. write answer using a positive exponent
sleet_krkn [62]

The simplification of 25p^6q^9 / 45p^8q^4 using a positive exponent;

  • Division is 5p^6 q^9 / 9p^8 q^4
  • Elevated form is  5/9 p^-2 q^5

<h3>What are algebraic expressions?</h3>

Algebraic expressions are expressions made up of factors, variables, terms, coefficients and constants.

They are also comprised of arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc

We also know that index forms are also know as standard forms.

They are mathematical expressions showing the power of exponent of a variable in terms of another variable.

Given the index algebraic forms;

25p^6q^9 / 45p^8q^4

Using the rule of indices, we take the negative exponent of the divisor and multiply through.

We have;

5p^6 q^9 × 9p^-8 q^-4

Add exponential values

5/9 p^6-8 q^9 -4

5/9 p^-2 q^5

Thus, the expression is simplified to 5/9 p^-2 q^5

15/2 x 3 = 45/2

45/2 = 22.5

bc its only 1 of 6 pieces, you have to multiply 22.5 by 6

22.6 x 6 = 135
