Answer:

C. 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a coin has 2 sides and there is the same probability of getting either side, then each side has a 50% or 0.5 probability. Therefore, in order to calculate the expected value of one coin flip we need to multiply the value of each side by its probability and add those values together like so...

1 * 0.5 = 0.5

0 * 0.5 = 0

Now we add these values together...

0.5 + 0 = 0.5

Finally, we can see that the expected value of one coin flip is 0.5

A little girl kicks a soccer ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to her. How is this possible?
Elanso [62]

She is standing in front of a wall which is 10 feet away when she kicks the ball and it hits the wall and comes back to her by the virtue of Newton's third Law of motion! She kicks the ball into the air vertically above her and the ball rises to 10 feet and then comes back to her by the virtue of gravity!

The greater of two consecutive integers is 15 more than twice the smaller. Find the integers.
Vlad [161]

Well, we know that the two consecutive numbers have to be negative, because if it was positive, the smaller number multiplied by two would be much greater. (unless 1 and 2). So, by guessing and checking, we will get -13 and -14 :)
