Explanation:
Since we have given that
Speed at which Eugene walked all the way to school = 3 mph
After realizing that she forgot her math book, she ran back
Speed at which Eugene walked back to her house = 7 mph
Let the distance between her house and her school be x
According to question,
Hence,
X - 12 = 6 - 8x is the equation this is describing.
The probability of one head and one tail is 2/3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- The possibilities for flipping two fair coins are {T,T}, {H,H}, {H,T}, {T,H}
- Given the case that at least one coin lands on a head, So the total possibilities are {H,H}, {H,T}, {T,H} = 3 possibilities
- Required event is 1 head and 1 tail= {H,T}, {T,H} = 2 possibilities
To calculate the probability of one head and one tail,
Probability = required events / Total events
Probability = 2/3
