Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 25 = 5² , then

$5^{(6-2x)}$ = 5²

Since the bases on both sides are 5 then equate the exponents

6 - 2x = 2 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 2x = - 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = 2

Describe how to compare the two ratios 5:8 to 7:9. Tell each step to set up the ratios, then explain what to do to be able to co

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

5/8 is smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio is just a different type of fraction, a 5:8 ratio means 5/8 which is 0.625. A 7:9 ratio equals 7/9 which is 0.777777

Then to compare them you see which is smaller or bigger.

0.77777 is bigger than 0.625 so we know that 0.77777777 which was the 7:9 ratio is the bigger one.

If you flip the five coins, and the probability of one coin being "tails" is 0.50, what is the probability of getting "tails" on

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: 0.03125

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability of getting a tail , we toss a fair coin = 0.5

Given : Total number of trials = 5

Using binomial probability formula :

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trails, n is total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

The probability of getting "tails" on all five coins :_

$P(x=5)=^5C_5(0.5)^5(1-0.5)^0=(1)(0.5)^5=0.03125$

Hence, the probability of getting "tails" on all five coins =0.03125
