//To have the lines parallel, the gradients must be the same.
y -- 6 = 1/2 (x - 9)
y + 6 = 1/2 x -9/2
y = 1/2 x - 10.5
That would be -2 1/2 , 3 1/2
First, I would show all the outcomes possible. To determine the number of the total outcomes, you use the formula: rⁿ, where r is the number of outcomes in 1 flip, and n is the number of lips. Thus, 2³ = 8 outcomes. These outcomes are:
1. HHH
2. TTT
3. HHT
<em>4. HTT</em>
5. HTH
6. THH
<em>7. TTH</em>
<em>8. THT</em>
From the given outcomes, there are <em>3 outcomes</em> that has at least two tails. These are the ones in bold characters.
Answer:
first method
<u>2</u><u>2</u>=<u>5</u>
7. x
we cross multiply to get
<u>2</u><u>2</u><u>x</u>= <u>5</u><u>×</u><u>7</u>
22. 22.
x= <u>3</u><u>5</u>
22
=1.59
second method
<u>2</u><u>2</u>=<u>5</u>
7. x
we multiply the denominators to get 7x
then we multiply each term by 7x
7x×<u>2</u><u>2</u> = <u>5</u>×7x
7. x
here the 7 and 7 will cancel out and the x and x will cancel out to get
<u>2</u><u>2</u><u>x</u>= <u>3</u><u>5</u>
22. 22
= 1.59
