a coin is tossed , then a number 1-10 is chosen at random.what is the probability of getting heads then a number less than 4?

1 answer:

4 0

Probability of sequences can be calculated by multiplying the chance of the first event by the chance of the second, and so on.

The probability of tossing a coin and getting heads is 50%, or 0.5, and the probability of selecting a number less than four from 1-10 is 40%, or 0.4.

The overall probability can then be expressed as:

0.5 x 0.4 = 0.2 or 20%

There is a twenty percent chance that a heads would be tossed and a number less than four selected.

I need to know how to simplify this equation

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

$\frac{ {3}^{x + 4} - {3}^{2x + 2} }{ {3}^{x - 2} \times {3}^{x + 4} } = \frac{x + 4 - 2x - 2}{(x - 2) \times (x + 4)} = \frac{ - x + 2}{ {x}^{2} + 4x - 2x - 8 } = \frac{ - x + 2}{ {x}^{2} + 2x - 8}$
i could be wrong, was kinda in a rush

247 is 38 percent of what amount? ❓

prisoha [69]

The question is asking that X times 38% will equal to 247. So we set up the equation:

$x * \frac{38}{100} = 247$

Then, we multiply both sides by $\frac{100}{38}$

and we get the answer is 650

In arithmetic sequence tn find: S10, if t2=5 and t8=15

makkiz [27]

Given:

$\bold{t_2=5}\\\\\bold{t_8=15}\\\\$

To find:

$\bold{T_n=?}\\\\\bold{S_{10}=?}$

Solution:

$\to \bold{t_2=5}\\\\ \bold{a+d=5} \\\\ \bold{a=5-d} ................(i)\\\\ \to \bold{t_8=15}\\\\ \bold{a+ 7d=15}.................(ii)\\\\$

Putting the equation (i) value into equation (ii):

$\to \bold{5-d+7d=15}\\\\\to \bold{5+6d=15}\\\\\to \bold{6d=15-5}\\\\\to \bold{6d=10}\\\\\to \bold{d=\frac{10}{6}}\\\\\to \bold{d=\frac{5}{3}}\\\\$

Putting the value of (d) into equation (i):

$\to \bold{a=5-\frac{5}{3}}\\\\\to \bold{a=\frac{15-5}{3}}\\\\\to \bold{a=\frac{10}{3}}\\\\$

Calculating the $\bold{t_n :}$

$\to \bold{t_n=a+(n-1)d}\\\\\to \bold{t_n=\frac{10}{3}+(n-1)\frac{5}{3}}\\\\\to \bold{t_n=\frac{10}{3}+\frac{5}{3}n-\frac{5}{3}}\\\\\to \bold{t_n=\frac{10}{3}-\frac{5}{3} +\frac{5}{3}n}\\\\\to \bold{t_n=\frac{10-5}{3} +\frac{5}{3}n}\\\\\to \bold{t_n=\frac{5}{3} +\frac{5}{3}n}\\\\ \to \bold{t_n=\frac{5}{3}(1+n)}\\\\$

Formula:

$\bold{S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n - 1)d ] }\\$

Calculating the $\bold{S_{10}} :$

$\to \bold{S_{10} = \frac{10}{2}[2\frac{10}{3} + (10- 1)\frac{5}{3} ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{20}{3} + (9)\frac{5}{3} ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{20}{3} + 9 \times \frac{5}{3} ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{20}{3} + 3\times 5 ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{20}{3} + 15 ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{20+ 45}{3} ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5[\frac{65}{3} ] }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = 5 \times \frac{65}{3} }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} = \frac{325}{3} }\\\\\to \bold{S_{10} =108.33 }$

Therefore, the final answer is " $\bold{\frac{5}{3}(1+n)\ and\ 108.33}$ "
