Answer:

The probability of getting two heads and a four is 1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting a head upon a single toss of a coin, assuming the coin is fair is 1/2.

The probability of getting two heads upon tossing two coins together will simply be the product of the individual probabilities;

P (HH) = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4

On the other hand, the probability of getting a four upon rolling a six sided number cube is;

1/6

This is because the number 4 occurs only once in a total possible of 6 numbers.

Therefore, the probability of getting two heads and a four;

P (HH4) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/24 since the three events are independent.

The measures of spread include the range, quartiles and the interquartile range, variance and standard deviation. Let's consider each one by one.

Interquartile Range:

Given the Data -> First Quartile = 2, Third Quartile = 5

Interquartile Range = 5 - 2 = 3

Range: 8 - 1 = 7

Variance:

We start by determining the mean,

$\:1+\:2+\:3+\:3+\:3+\:5+\:8 / 7 = 3.57$

n = number of numbers in the set

Solving for the sum of squares is a long process, so I will skip over that portion and go right into solving for the variance.

$\sum _{i=1}^n\frac{\left(x_i-\bar{x}\right)^2}{n-1},\\\\=> SS/n - 1\\\\=> 31.714/7 - 1\\=> 5.28571$

5.3

Standard Deviation

We take the square root of the variance,

$\sqrt{5.28571} = 2.29906$

2.3

If you are not familiar with variance and standard deviation, just leave it.

suppose you are mixing red and blue paint in a bucket. do you think the final color of the mixed paint will be the same whether

Answer:

It does not matter which color you add first because either way you will end up with the same color, purple. We can relate this to the commutative property of addition because blue + red = red + blue.
