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.

Step-by-step explanation:

this idea is probably a good thing to have a solid understand of. That Cartesian (rect) is the x and y components, of the legs of a triangle and is a way to measure that part of the two leg of the triangle that is made up by those pieces.. while the polar system would measure the hypotenuse of that same triangle with the degrees as a way to place where that hypotenuses goes

the abs value of an imaginary number will give you that distance from the origin to the point.. if you are using that sqrt ( $x^{2}$ + $y^{2}$ ) to get the abs. this is the same as the magnitude and can represent a total force. The distance between the origin and the point is that idea of two points.. conveniently we used (0,0) the origin as one of the points.. the other is at the top of the line or the point given by the complex number
