We will use Binomial Distribution in this case.

Since the coin is tossed 15 times. N which is the number of trails will be 15.

P = Probability of heads

Q = Probability of tails

X = No. heads occurring in each toss.

So, now we have to find the probability for exactly 10 heads.

P(x = 10) = C(15, 10) P^x Q^N-x

C(15, 10) (1/2)^10 (1/2)^5 = 0.0916

In the first product the numerator of the fraction is greater than the denominator, therefore the fraction is greater than 1. On the other hand in the second product the numerator of the fraction is smaller than the denominator, therefore the fraction is smaller than one. That means the first product is greater than the second one.

Graph y = | x | + 5 .
vovikov84 [41]
I cannot see the images, but... 

y = | x | + 5 

consider the absolute value function. You know that for every value of x, y will be greater than or equal to 5.  this means that the y-intercept will also be the bottom of the curve. 

Plug a few values in for an idea of what the graph will look like: 
f(-1) = 6    (-1,6)
f(1) = 6     (1, 6)
f(-2) = 7    (-2, 7)
f(2) = 7     (2, 7)

The graph will have a minimum value at (0,5), where two lines will converge. The graph will look like a pointy cone with its point at (0,5), with two lines pointing outward and upward from this point. Confirm that the graph passes through the coordinates provided above!
