Answer:

The probability is 1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the probability that when a coin is flipped there would be a show of heads three times.

In flipping of a coin, there are only two possible results with equal probability. The probability of both events i.e P(H) and P(T) is equal and that is 1/2

Thus the probability of getting heads three times in a row will be P(HHH) meaning P(H) and another P(H) and another P(H)

When we have and in a probability question, that means we are to multiply the probabilities together.

Hence, P(HHH) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Find the area of the rectangle. Round the answer to the nearest whole number.
Fed [463]

Answer:

The area of the given rectangle is 51

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle.

Then the length and breadth of it using distance formula.

The distance d between points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) is given by

d= \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}

Finally calculate the area of rectangle using the formula,

Area of rectangle = Length * Breadth

From the given graph, we get the coordinates of the rectangle as

A(2,4) , B(-2,3) , C(1,-9) , D(5,-8)

Breadth, AB = \sqrt{(-2-2)^{2}+(3-4)^{2}} = \sqrt{16+1} = sqrt{17}

Length, BC = \sqrt{(1+2)^{2}+(-9-3)^{2}} = \sqrt{9+144} = 3 sqrt{17}

Now, Area of rectangle = Length * Breadth = AB * BC = √17 * 3√17 = 3 *17 = 51

∴ The area of the given rectangle is 51

Write the equation for a line that passes through (4,-1) and has a slope of 5
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

y = 5x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we already know the slope, all we need to do is plug the values of x and y into the equation.

y = 5x + b

-1 = 5(4) + b

-1 = 20 + b

-21 = b

The equation is y = 5x - 21.
