BlackZzzverrR [31]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1. A coin is tossed four times. What is the probability of getting four heads?

Each toss has a 1/2 chance of getting a head.

So the chance of getting all four heads can be calculated as :

$1/2\times1/2\times1/2\times1/2=1/16$

2. A coin is tossed four times. What is the probability of getting two heads?

Each toss can have 2 results, so 4 flips will have $2^{4}$ or 16 results.

Getting two heads means getting two tails also. So, we can get the number of times two heads come = $\frac{4!}{2!2!}$ = 6

We can write the groups like - {HHTT,HTHT,HTTH,THHT,THTH,TTHH}

So, the required probability is : 6/16 or 3/8.

3. Not getting two heads means getting 3 tails and 1 head or all tails.

Probability of having all tails = $1/2\times1/2\times1/2\times1/2=1/16$

Probability of one head(1st trial) and three tails = 1/16

Probability of one head (2nd trial) and three tails (the 1st, 3rd and 4th trials) = 1/16

Probability of one head (3rd trial) and three tails (the 1st, 2nd and 4th trials) = 1/16

Probability of one head (4th trial) and three tails (the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trials) = 1/16

So, the total probability showing only one or none head and at least three tails = $1/16+1/16+1/16+1/16+1/16=5/16$

The Opera House sells an average of 1,700 tickets per night when the price of each ticket is $25. An employee of the Opera House

irakobra [83]

So here's the solution to the problem:

Calculate the average sell:

1,700 * $25 = $42,500 (revenue)

And if the Opera House wants to increase their revenue:

The price of a ticket will be:

$25 - x (where x is the number of 1-dollar decreases)

The number of tickets in total:

1,700 + 200x

Therefore the equation is:

(1,700 +200x) * ( 25 - x ) = 55,000

We can also solve this equation, but the solutions are not whole numbers.

x 1 = 5.89 and x 2 =10.6

For x = 6 (6 times 1 - dollar decreases):

( 1,700 + 200 * 6 ) * ( 25 - 6 ) = ( 1,700 + 1,200 ) * 18

=2,900 *19 = 55,100 (we will yield the revenue over $55,000)

Let no red ribbons=x
no. Of blue ribbons=x+3
No. Of yellow ribb9ns=x+7
Totsl ribbons=28
28=x+x+3+x+7
28=3x+10
3x=28-10
3x=18
X=18/3
X=6

No .of red ribbons=6
No. Of blue ribbons=x+3=9
No. Of yellow ribbons=x+7=13

If the gradient of a line joining the points (-2, 6) and (5, b) is 14.<br> Find the value of b.

babunello [35]

Answer:

b = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is expressed as;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

14 = b - 6/5-(-2)

14 = b - 6/5+2

14 = b-6/7

Cross multiply

b-6 = 14 * 7

b - 6 = 98

b = 98 + 6

b = 104
