Answer:
C. They have the same chance of winning.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability (2 tails) = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
Probability( 2 heads = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4.
Therefore the Probability they match = 1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2.
The probability of they don't match = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 because all probabilities add up to 1. There are only 4 possible results and their probabilities must add up to 1.
A triangle is
A polygon with
3 angles(x2)
3 sides
Answer:
the third side is 40 m long
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of its three sides, and they give you what that value in meters is (120 m)
Your are given the length of two of them: 30 m and 50 m, and need to find the third one (let's call it "x" for this unknown side)
Now set the following equation:
Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3 --> replace these with the info you know
120 m = 30 m + 50 m + x --> add 30 m and 50 m obtaining 80 m
120 m = 80 m + x --> now solve for x (isolate the x on one side) by subtracting 80 m from both sides
120 m - 80 m = x --> perform the subtraction 120 m - 80 m = 40 m
40 m = x
Which tells us that the third unknown side has a length of 40 m
-- They're losing employees . . . so you know that the line will slope down, and
its slope is negative;
-- They're losing employees at a steady rate . . . so you know that the slope is
the same everywhere on the line; this tells you that the graph is a straight line.
I can see the function right now, but I'll show you how to go through the steps to
find the function. I need to point out that these are steps that you've gone through
many times, but now that the subject pops up in a real-world situation, suddenly
you're running around in circles with your hair on fire screaming "What do I do ?
Somebody give me the answer !".
Just take a look at what has already been handed to you:
0 months . . . 65 employees
1 month . . . . 62 employees
2 months . . . 59 employees
You know three points on the line !
(0, 65) , (1, 62) , and (2, 59) .
For the first point, 'x' happens to be zero, so immediately
you have your y-intercept ! ' b ' = 65 .
You can use any two of the points to find the slope of the line.
You will calculate that the slope is negative-3 . . . which you
might have realized as you read the story, looked at the numbers,
and saw that they are <u>firing 3 employees per month</u>.
("Losing" them doesn't quite capture the true spirit of what is happening.)
So your function ... call it ' W(n) ' . . . Workforce after 'n' months . . .
is <em>W(n) = 65 - 3n</em> .
