Answer:
1/2, or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 ways that 2 coins can fall...
Both heads (this satisfies our situation)
1st coin heads, 2nd coin tails
1st coin tails, 2nd coin heads
Both tails (this satisfies our situation)
We have 2 out of 4 ways to satisfy this situation, so our experimental probability is
P = 2/4 which reduces to
P = 1/2 , or 0.5 as a decimal
This problem is an example of solving equations with variables on both sides. To solve, we must first set up an equation for both the red balloon and the blue balloon.
Since the red balloon rises at 2.6 meters per second, we can represent this part of the equation as 2.6s. The balloon is already 7.3 meters off of the ground, so we just add the 7.3 to the 2.6s:
2.6s + 7.3
Since the blue balloon rises at 1.5 meters per second, we can represent this part of the equation as 1.5s. The balloon is already 12.4 meters off of the ground, so we just add the 12.4 to the 1.5:
1.5s + 12.4
To determine when both balloons are at the same height, we set the two equations equal to each other:
2.6s + 7.3 = 1.5s + 12.4
Then, we solve for s. First, the variables must be on the same side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 1.5s from both sides of the equation:
1.1s + 7.3 = 12.4
Next, we must get s by itself. We work towards this by subtracting 7.3 from both sides of the equation:
1.1s = 5.1
Last, we divide both sides by 1.1. So s = 4.63.
This means that it will take 4.63 seconds for both balloons to reach the same height. If we want to know what height that is, we simply plug the 4.63 back into each equation:
2.6s + 7.3
= 2.6 (4.63) + 7.3
= 19.33
1.5s + 12.4
= 1.5 (4.63) + 12.4
= 19.33
After 4.63 seconds, the balloons will have reached the same height: 19.33 meters.
Would this be the correct answer? If not, can you further explain the question?(11x+8y)(11x-8y)

Functions are a set of points that show how dependent variables change through independent variables.
Defining a Function
In functions, each x-value is assigned to exactly one y-value. This means that x-values do not repeat. So, if there is one x-value more than once in a set, then it cannot be a function.
For example, set B has the x-value 3 and 4 repeated twice. Thus, it does not represent a function.
Graph of a Function
Functions can also be defined through a graph. Just like with coordinate points, x-values do not repeat on the graph. You can use the vertical line test to see if a graph is a function. If you can draw a vertical line at every point on a graph without it ever intersecting with the graph more than once, then it is a function.
