Answer:
(a)
The probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

(b)
The expected numbers of flips needed would be

Therefore, suppose that
, then the expected number of flips needed would be 1/0.5 = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Case 1
Imagine that you throw your coin and you get only heads, then you would stop when you get the first tail. So the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

Case 2
Imagine that you throw your coin and you get only tails, then you would stop when you get the first head. So the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

Therefore the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

(b)
The expected numbers of flips needed would be

Therefore, suppose that
, then the expected number of flips needed would be 1/0.5 = 2.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2/3 is a sixth of an apple that all 3 people equally shared.
Step-by-step explanation:
u.v=|u||v|cos60°
u.v=(2.5)(3.2)(1/2)
u.v=(8)(1/2)
u.v=4
Answer:
So there are 500 pairs of numbers that have a sum of 1001. Thus, the sum of numbers from 1 to 1000 is 500*1001 = 500,500.
