Answer:

c. 0.3421

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability of selecting the biased coin is shown below:

The probability of any coin selected is 1 ÷ 2

The probability in the case when the biased coin chosen & wins 1 ÷ 2 (1 - 0.74)

And, the win probability is 1 ÷ 2  (1 - 0.74) + 1 ÷ 2  (1 - 0.5)

Now the probability of biased or win is

=  {1 ÷ 2 (1 - 0.74)} ÷ { 1 ÷ 2  (1 - 0.74) + 1 ÷ 2  (1 - 0.5)}

= 0.13 ÷ 0.38

= 0.3421

Hence, the correct option is c. 0.3421

Hey I need help with this question:<br><br> 6(x-3)^2-26 = 10
ra1l [238]

Answer:

x = 3 ±sqrt(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-3)^2-26 = 10

Add 26 to each side

6(x-3)^2-26+26 = 10+26

6(x-3)^2 = 36

Divide by 6

6/6(x-3)^2 = 36/6

(x-3)^2 = 6

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-3)^2) = ±sqrt(6)

x-3 =  ±sqrt(6)

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 =3 ±sqrt(6)

x = 3 ±sqrt(6)

What is the solution set for the given inequality if the replacement set for r is {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}?
Sophie [7]
Hi there! The answer is B.

5r \leqslant 6r - 8
Subtract 6r from both sides.

- r \leqslant  - 8
Divide both sides of the inequality by -1. Remember that dividing by a negative makes the sign flip.

r \geqslant 8
Therefore, the solution must be bigger than or equal to 8. From the given solution set, the answer is B. {8, 9, 10}

~ Hope this helps you!
