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

At noon Joyce drove to the lake at 30 miles per hour. but she made the long walk back home at 4 miles per hour. How long did she
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = distance to the lake

Using:  time = distance ÷ speed

Create expressions for the time it takes for each journey:

Drive:  t_1=\dfrac{d}{30}

Walk:   t_2=\dfrac{d}{4}

If total time = 17 hours

\implies t_1+t_2=17

\implies \dfrac{d}{30}+\dfrac{d}{4}=17

\implies \dfrac{17d}{60}=17

\implies 17d=1020

\implies d=\dfrac{1020}{17}

\implies d=60

Therefore she walked 60 miles

Please use the figure below to solve for both x and y
kkurt [141]

Answer:

x=10°

y = 12°

Step-by-step explanation:

<TSV = 5x + 4x = 90°

=> 9x = 90°

Divide by 9,

x = 10°

<RSU = 10y + 10° + 5x = 180°

=> 10y + 10° + 5*10° = 180°

=> 10y + 10° + 50° = 180°

=> 10y + 60° = 180°

Subtract 60° on both sides,

10y = 180° - 60° = 120°

Divide by 10,

y = 120° / 10 = 12°
