Answer: \dfrac{7}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : When a coin is tossed twice , the total outcomes will become

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

Total outcomes = 8

Favorable outcomes to obtain 1 and 3 inclusive = HHT , HTH , THH , TTH , THT , HTT ,TTT

Number of favorable outcomes = 7

Probability that the number of tails obtained will be between 1 and 3 inclusive = \dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

=\dfrac{7}{8}

Hence, the probability that the number of tails obtained will be between 1 and 3 inclusive =\dfrac{7}{8}

Simplify the expression.<br> -5+i /2i
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

\frac{1+5i}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know i×i=i^2 which has value of -1.

We will multiply numerator and denominator by i so the denominator will no longer contain imaginary part(s).

Also multiplying by i/i does not change the value of the fraction because i/i=1.

Numerator × i gives (-5+i)i=-5i+i^2=-5i-1

=-1-5i.

Denominator × i gives (2i)i=2i^2=-2.

So the simplified version of this fraction given is:

\frac{-1-5i}{-2}=\frac{1+5i}{2}

The last simplification come from me multiplying fraction by -1/-1.

take 23 2/3 and subtract 6 to get 53/3 or 17 2/3 or 17.667

then you take 17.667 and divide by 11 to get 1.606
