Answer:

This states that the probability of the occurrence of two independent events is the product of their individual probabilities. The probability of getting two heads on two coin tosses is 0.5 x 0.5 or 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting 2 heads with 2 coins can be broken into 2 steps:

The first coin must show Heads AND

the second coin must show Heads.

p(h,h)= P(H) <----- and means multiply

P(H) x P(H)= 1/2 x 1/2 =1/4

Missy’s rotation maps point K(17, –12) to K’(12, 17). Which describes the rotation?

Svetlanka [38]

Point K is in the 4th quadrant, then it goes into the first quadrant. So this means the rotation could be 90 degrees counterclockwise or 270 degrees clockwise.

The answer is 90 degrees counterclockwise or 270 degrees clockwise.
