<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.

If 100% of a number is 15, what is 50% of the number?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Let n be the number

100% of a number is 15 is written as: 100% × n = 15

100% = 100 / 100 = 1

Hence

100% × n = n = 15

We now need to find 50% of the number

50% of 15 = (50 / 100) × 15 = 750 / 100 = 7.5

Find the value of x.
allochka39001 [22]

In order to find the value of x, you have to cross multiply both equations. 4x-10 is basically 4 times something subtract 10. Same thing as well for 3x-2. Now it says to find the value of x. X has to also be the same answer for both equation as well. By the way x doesn't have a given number so there is no specific answer.
