The three coins could land any these 8 ways:
HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT
P(3 heads) = 1 way out of 8 or 1/8
P(2 heads) = 3 ways out of 8 or 3/8
P(1 head) = 3 ways out of 8 or 3/8
P(0 heads) = 1 way out of 8 or 1/8
x=Winnings P(x) E(x)=x�P(x)
$3 1/8 $.375
$2 3/8 $.75
$1 3/8 $.375
-$10 1/8 -$1.25

Total expectation = $ .25
Answer:
Suppose that during its flight, the elevation e (in feet) of a certain airplane and its time ... since takeoff, are related by a linear equation. Consider the graph of this equation, with time represented on the horizontal axis and elevation on the vertical axis. ... Unit 3; Linear Relationships Lesson 9: Slopes Don't Have to be Positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, you are correct.
From the image, we can see 3 triangles, the large triangle and the two triangles that make the larger triangle.
All 3 of these triangles are similar since they're angle measurements are the same (can be proven by geometry).
We can gather the following information from the given information.
- The largest triangle (the one made up of two triangles) has a hypotenuse of 3+9=12, and a leg length of x. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is 12/x
- The second largest triangle has a hypotenuse length x and leg length 9. The hypotenuse to leg ratio is x/9
We know the hypotenuse to corresponding leg ratio must be equal since these two triangles are similar. Thus, we have the equation:
12/x = x/9
Using the cross product property gives us:
x² = 9 × 12
x² = 108
Taking the square root of both sides gives us:
x = √108
= 6 √3
Thus, your answer is correct. Great job!
