The probability that you will guess the first answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the second answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the third answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess all three answers correctly is
(0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.125 = 12.5% .

Here are all the ways your answer sheet could wind up:

Number of possible ways to score 0 right out of 3 questions: 1 way
Number of possible ways to score 1 right out of 3 questions: 3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 2 right out of 3 questions: 3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 3 right out of 3 questions: 1 way
Statistically, if your answers are all pure guesses,
then on the average, the score you expect is
(0 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 100) / 8
= 400 / 8
= 50% .
If you're happy with that score, great !
Go to the movies the night before the test,
and start guessing.
Answer:
1/32768
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 5 digit pin code plots and 8 choices per slot. Because repetition is allowed (1 digit can have 8 choices) so we multiply out the number of choices per slot
. Hence:
8*8*8*8*8 =
So there are 32768 different combination.
But correct guess on the first try is just only 1 time, so its' probability:
1/32768
Step-by-step explanation:
The above given statements can be written as decimals by first writing both quantities in a statement in the same unit.
1. $6.00 to 95 cents:
This is same as $6.00 : 95 cents = \frac{6.00}{95}956.00
Convert $6 .00 to cents to make both quantities be in the same unit.
$1 = 100 cents
$6.00 = 6*100 = 600 cents
\frac{600}{95} = 6.3295600=6.32 (to 2 d.p)
2. 3 hours to 35 minutes:
Convert 3 hours to 35 mins
1 hr = 60 mins
3 hrs = 3*60 = 180 mins
180mins : 35 mins = \frac{180}{35} = 5.14180mins:35mins=35180=5.14 (2 d.p)
3. 42 inches to 2 feet:
Convert 2 ft to inches
1 ft = 12 inches
2ft = 2*12 = 24 inches
42 in:24 in = \frac{42}{24} = 1.7542in:24in=2442=1.75
A=(2x+1)/B
C=(5x-14)/B
AC=(2x+1)/B * (5x-14)/B
AC=(10x² - 23x - 14)/BE
