Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 coins are tossed. the total possible outcomes are;

H H H H , H H H T, H H T H, H T H H, T H H H , H H T T, H T T H, T T H H, H T H T, T H T H, T H H T , H T T T, T H T T, T T H T, T T T H  and T T T T

Total outcomes = 16

1) zero head = T T T T = 1 outcome

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(zero head) = 1/16

2) one head = H T T T, T H T T, T T H T, T T T H   = 4 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Probability = 4/16

Pr(one head) = 1/4

3) two heads = H H T T, H T T H, T T H H, H T H T, T H T H, T H H T   = 6 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(two head) = 6/16

Pr(two head) = 3/8

4)  three heads = H H H T, H H T H, H T H H, T H H H   = 4 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(three heads) = 4/16

Pr(two head) = 1/4

5) four heads appearing on the four coins =  H H H H = 1 outcome

Pr(four heads) = 1/16

Answer:

area of semicircle only = 113.43 mm²

total area = 185.43 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

(8.5²)(π)(0.5) = 113.43 mm²

(12)(12)(.5) = 72 mm²

72 + 113.43 = 185.43 mm²

The numbers of teams remaining in each round of a single-elimination tennis tournament represent a geometric sequence where an i
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

a_n = 128\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The numbers of teams remaining in each round follows a geometric sequence.

Let a be the first the of the geometric sequence and r be the common ration.

The n^{th} term of geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = ar^{n-1}

a_4 = 16 = ar^3\\a_6 = 4 = ar^5

Dividing the two equations, we get,

\dfrac{16}{4} = \dfrac{ar^3}{ar^5}\\\\4}=\dfrac{1}{r^2}\\\\\Rightarrow r^2 = \dfrac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow r = \dfrac{1}{2}

the first term can be calculated as:

16=a(\dfrac{1}{2})^3\\\\a = 16\times 6\\a = 128

Thus, the required geometric sequence is

a_n = 128\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^{n-1}
