Answer:

The probability you will get a head at least once is 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question is asking about the probability you will get, we can assume we’re answering based on theoretical probability. This type of probability is based on logic.

A coin always has two sides, one with head and the other with tails. So we can easily represent this as half and half. 1/2 as a fraction. 0.5 as a decimal. 50% as a percent. This means that P(H) will be equal to any one of these as they are all the same. The same can be said for the probability that a head does not appear, in other words, a tail appears. The reason being that the probability is split evenly between the two. This will again mean that P(T) will equal to any one of those.

So, A = 50% and B = 50%. The probability you will get a head at least once is 50%.

Is -96 1/5 a rational number

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Every integer is a rational number, since each integer n can be written in the form n/1. For example 5 = 5/1 and thus 5 is a rational number. However, numbers like 1/2, 45454737/2424242, and -3/7 are also rational, since they are fractions whose numerator and denominator are integers

A grower believes that one in five of his citrus trees are infected with the citrus red mite. How large a sample should be taken

kotegsom [21]

Answer: 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for sample size when prior estimate of population proportion (p) is available: $n=p(1-p)(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$

, where z*= critical-value.

E= Margin of error.

Let p be the population proportion of trees are infected with the citrus red mite.

As per given , we have

$p=\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2$

E= ± 0.08

The critical z-value corresponding to 90% confidence level = z*=1.645

Substitute all the values in the above formula , we get

Required sample size : $n=(0.2)(1-0.2)(\dfrac{(1.645)}{0.08})^2$

$\Rightarrow\ n=(0.2)(0.8)(20.5625)^2$

$\Rightarrow\ n=0.16(422.81640625)\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=67.650625\approx68$ [Rounded to next integer.]

Thus, the minimum sample size should be taken =68

A box contains 10 balls, of which 3 are red, 2 are yellow, and 5 are blue. Five balls are randomly selected with replacement. Ca

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

red balls = 3

yellow balls = 2

blue balls = 5

Selected balls = 5

Number of elemnets in sample space = 10 C 5 = 1260

Ways to choose 1 red ball and 4 other colours = (3 C 1 ) x (7 C 4) = 105

Ways to choose 5 balls of other colours = 7 C 5 = 21

So, the probability is

$\frac{105}{1260} + \frac {21}{1260}\\\\\frac{126}{1260}=0.1$

Answer: The sum of the number of angles in a polygon is (n-2) * 180, where n is the number of sides, so the sum of the angles of a 17-sided polygon is (17-2) * 180 = 2700.
