How many leaves on a tree diagram are needed to represent all possible combinations tossing a coin 3 times?

2 answers:

8 0

N = 3 is the number of times the coin is tossed. Since there are 2 outcomes per toss, this means that there are 2^n = 2^3 = 2*2*2 = 8 outcomes total. Therefore, there are 8 leaves total.

If we make
H = heads
T = tails

Then here are the 8 outcomes in the sample space
HHH
HHT
HTH
THH
HTT
THT
TTH
TTT

Solve for x & y. 30x−42y=−6 and 5x−7y=−1

vladimir1956 [14]

Um.. Both of those equations are the exact same. Divide both sides of the first equation by 6. You get:

$\frac{30x - 42y}{6} = \frac{-6}{6} \\ 5x - 7y = -1$

That is the exact same as the second equation. This system has an infinite number of solutions. 5x - 7y = -1 is a line, so basically every point on that line is a solution to the system.

For example, $x = 0$ and $y = \frac{1}{7}$ would work, but so would $x = 1$ and $y = \frac{6}{7}$
