<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.

2x-1<br> Evaluate the algebraic expressions for the given values of the variable
igor_vitrenko [27]
<span>An algebraic expression is an expression constructed from a number of constants and variables utilizing algebraic operations. These algebraic operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentiation. A constant is constant, so its value is unchanged. A variable changes based on the value provided. In the provided example, 2x-1, there are two constants, "2" and "1", and one variable "x." The algebraic operations utilized are multiplication and subtraction. In order to evaluate the value of the algebraic expression, the given value for the variable must be substituted for the variable x, and then the algebraic operations executed to obtain the answer. For instance, if you were told that the value of x in this case was 2, then you would substitute the value 2 for x and perform the described operations. Remember to follow the order of operations when evaluating an algebraic expression! 2x-1 for x=2 2(2) - 1 4 - 1 3 is the answer. Remember, even though the multiplication operation is not explicitly stated, it is implied that a constant attached to a variable (termed a coefficient) is multiplied with the value of the variable.</span>

Jordan is a student who hates to be called on in class. His teacher randomly calls on students and Jordan knows that on any give
Anika [276]

Answer:

0.1 for each case

Step-by-step explanation:

Because Jordan's teacher randomly calls on students and Jordan has 10% chance of being called on any given day, the probability that on the first day Jordan is called on is 0.1 Besides, the probability remains constant on any given day, so, the probability  that on the 2nd day Jordan is called on is 0.1 and for the 5th day is the same 0.1 Probability is always a number between 0 and 1.

The following function is probability Distribution function.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

9.60 ; - 60.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

F(x)=6(x+1) /25, x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

x = 0

F(0)=6(0+1)/25 = 6/25 = 0.24

x = 1

F(1)=6(1+1)/25 = 12/25 = 0.48

x = 2

F(2)=6(2+1)/25 = 18/25 = 0.72

x = 3

F(2)=6(3+1)/25 = 24/25 = 0.96

x = 4

F(2)=6(4+1)/25 = 30/25 = 1.2

X ______0 _____ 1 ______ 2 ______ 3 ____ 4

P(x) ___ 0.24 __ 0.48 ___ 0.72 ____ 0.96 __ 1.2

Mean, μ = Σx*p(x) :

(0*0.24) + (1*0.48) + (2*0.72) + (3*0.96) + (4*1.2)

= 9.60

Variance : Σx²*p(x) - μ²

(0^2*0.24) + (1^2*0.48) + (2^2*0.72) + (3^2*0.96) + (4^2*1.2) - 9.6^2

= 31.2 - 92.16

= - 60.96
