Answer:

a) S= {HH, HT, TH, TT}

b) P(X=0) = (2C0) (0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{2-0}= 0.25

P(X=1) = (2C1) (0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{2-1}= 0.5

P(X=2) = (2C2) (0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{2-2}= 0.25

And we have the following table:

X     |     0   |     1   |      2

P(X) |  0.25 |  0.5 |  0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define first some notation

H= represent a head for the coin tossed

T= represent tails for the coin tossed

We are going to toss a coin 2 times so then the size of the sample size is 2^2 = 4

a. What is the sample space for this chance experiment?

The sampling space on this case is given by:

S= {HH, HT, TH, TT}

b. For this chance experiment, give the probability distribution for the random variable of the total number of heads observed.

The possible values for the number of heads are X=0,1,2. If we assume a fair coin then the probability of obtain heads is the same probability of obtain tails and we can find the distribution like this:

P(X=0) = (2C0) (0.5)^0 (1-0.5)^{2-0}= 0.25

P(X=1) = (2C1) (0.5)^1 (1-0.5)^{2-1}= 0.5

P(X=2) = (2C2) (0.5)^2 (1-0.5)^{2-2}= 0.25

And we have the following table:

X     |     0   |     1   |      2

P(X) |  0.25 |  0.5 |  0.25

Equation of the line (-6,5) and (8,14) in standard form
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{9x-14y=-70}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have two points (-6, 5) and (8, 14).

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{14-5}{8-(-6)}=\dfrac{9}{14}\\\\y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x-(-6))\\\\y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x+6)

Thew standard form of an equation of a line:

Ax+By=C

transform:

y-5=\dfrac{9}{14}(x+6)\qquad|\text{multiply both sides by 14}\\\\14y-14\cdot5=14\!\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{9}{14\!\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}(x+6)\\\\14y-70=9(x+6)\\\\14y-70=9x+54\qquad|\text{subtract}\ 9x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-9x+14y-70=54\qquad|\text{add 70 to both sides}\\\\-9x+14y=70\qquad|\text{change the signs}\\\\9x-14y=-70
