Answer:

2 / 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin flipped 3 times has following outcomes, of heads 'H' & Tails 'T'

HHH , TTT , HTT, THT , TTH , THH , HTH , HHT  = total outcomes

P (A) = 2 consecutive heads , P (B) = atleast one tail

P (A) = 2 outcomes ( HHH , HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 3 / 8

P (B) = 7 outcomes (all except HHH) / total 8 outcomes = 7 / 8

P (A | B) = P ( A ∩ B ) / P (B)

P ( A ∩ B ) = P ( 2 consecutive heads & atleast one tail) / Total outcomes =   2 outcomes ( HHT , THH ) / total 8 outcomes = 2 / 8

So, P (A | B) = ( 2 / 8 ) /  ( 7 / 8 ) = 2 / 7

Trucks are delivering gravel to a construction site each truck hold 7.5 cubic yards of gravel. The weight of 1 cubic yard of gra
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
The first thing you must do is to calculate the weight of the gravel (w) that the truck holds (7.5 yards³). So, you have:

 If the weight of 1 yard³ is 1.48 tons, then the weight of 7.5 yards³ is:

 w=7.5x1.48 tons
 w=11.1 tons

 The problem says that the gravel will be placed in containers that each hold 3.7 tons of gravel,so, If they need 1 cotainer to place 3.7 tons, how many containers they need to place 11.1 tons?

 1 container-------3.7 tons of gravel
                 x-------11.1 tons of gravel

 x=(11.1x1)/3.7
 x=11.1/3.7
 x=3 containers

 H<span>ow many containers of this size are needed to hold all the gravel from one truck?
</span>
 The answer is: 3 containers.
