<h3>Answer:   Choice C)    9/100</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

We have these two events

  • A = the coin lands on tails
  • B = the number cube (aka dice) lands on '2'

The experimental (aka empirical) probabilities of each are

  • P(A) = 36/80 = 9/20
  • P(B) = 16/80 = 1/5

Note how P(A) is not 1/2 like we expect; however it's fairly close because 9/20 = 0.45 while 1/2 = 0.5 in slight contrast. The experimental probability never 100% lines up with the theoretical probability, but will get closer as you do more trials (due to the law of large numbers). A similar situation happens with P(B). The theoretical probability would be P(B) = 1/6 = 0.1667

Events A and B are independent, which allows us to multiply the probabilities:

P(A and B) = probability of getting tails and rolling a '2'

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B)

P(A and B) = (9/20)*(1/5)

P(A and B) = (9*1)/(20*5)

P(A and B) = 9/100 which points the answer to choice C

--------------

Slight alternative method:

P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B) = (36/80)*(16/80) = 0.09 = 9/100

this method involves typing (36/80)*(16/80) into your calculator.

m= 20 for one becouse 5×20 is 100

m= 5 because 5×2 is 10

or do 5÷100 that is 20

and 2÷10 that is 5

Solve.<br> |6x − 5| &lt; 7<br><br> Write the equivalent compound inequality <br> &lt; 6x − 5 &lt;
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities of the type | x | < a always have solutions of the form

- a < x < a

This can be extended to include expressions, that is

- 7 < 6x - 5 < 7 ( add 5 to all 3 intervals )

- 2 < 6x < 12 ( divide all 3 intervals by 6 )

- \frac{1}{3} < x < 2
