Answer: a) 0.2222, b) 0.3292, c) 0.1111
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Let the probability of getting head be p.
Since, its head is twice as likely to occur as its tail.
a)If the coin is flipped 3 times, what is the probability of getting exactly 1 head?
So, here, n = 3
Now,
b)If the coin is flipped 5 times, what is the probability of getting exactly 2 tails?
2 tails means 3 heads.
So, it becomes,
c)If the coin is flipped 4 times, what is the probability of getting at least 3 tails?
Hence, a) 0.2222, b) 0.3292, c) 0.1111
For simple integer factors as this one has, you want to find two values for the quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c. Let the two values be j and k. These two values must satisfy two conditions.
jk=ac=10 and j+k=b=11, so j and k must be 1 and 10.
Now replace bx with jx and kx...
2x^2+x+10x+5 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms.
x(2x+1)+5(2x+1)
(x+5)(2x+1)
The answer are:
(-4,5)
(2,2)
(-1, -3)
(3,4)
(2,-1)
(-5,6)
