A coin is tossed two times, then a month of the year is randomly selected. What is the probability of getting tails each time, and a month that starts with the letter J? I got 1/8 is that correct if not what’s the answer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 getting tails

1/4 getting tails twice

3/12 getting a J month =1/4

1/4 x 1/4 =1/16

Answer 2

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a fair coin, the probability of getting tails on any one toss =

P(tails) = 1/2

if a coin is tossed twice and  we get tails both times,

P( 2 tails on 2 consecutive tosses) = (1/2)(1/2) = 1/4

Total number of months = 12 months

Months that start with J = January, June, July = 3 months

P(selecting months that start with J) = 3/12 = 1/4

Hence the probability of tossing 2 consecutive tails then selecting a month that starts with J

= (1/4) x (1/4)

= 1/16

A rectangle is 4 times longer than it is wide. The perimeter of the rectangle is 30 cm. Find the dimension of the rectangle.

Answers

Width is 3 cm and length is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then the length = 4x. Find the dimensions if perimeter = 30 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

30 = 2(x + 4x)

30 = 10x

⇒ x = 30/10 = 3

⇒ 4x = 12

Answers

Answer:

The number of tigers decays by a factor of

                                                                         [tex]\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]    every    0.50 years  

Explanation:

The correctly written function is

         [tex]N(t)=650\cdot \bigg(\dfrac{16}{25}\bigg)^t[/tex]

Convert 16/25 into its equivalent form (4/5)²

          [tex]N(t)=650\cdot \bigg(\dfrac{4}{5}\bigg)^{2t}[/tex]

If you make t = 1/2, this is half-year, the population of tigers will decay by a factor of 4/5 in that time. Every time the half-year passes, the population is multiplied by 4/5, which means that the polulation will decay by a factor of 4/5 whenever half a year elapses.

Hence, the number of tigers decays by a factor of 4/5 every 0.50 years.

The tiger population model indicates a decay by a factor of 4/5 every year. This factor shows the yearly reduction rate for the tiger population in Siberia.

To determine the rate of change in the tiger population modeled by the function N(t) = [tex]650 \cdot \left(\frac{16}{25}\right)^t,[/tex] we look at the decay factor in the exponential function. The base of the exponent, [tex]\frac{16}{25}[/tex], indicates that the population is decaying.

This decay factor can be expressed as [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex], where every year, the number of tigers decays by a factor of  [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]. Thus, we can complete the sentence as follows:

The number of tigers decays by a factor of  [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] every year.

A square in a rectangle have the same perimeter. The length of a side of the square is 4x-1. The length of the rectangle is 2x+2 and the width is 2x

Answers

The value x is 1, if the perimeter of square and rectangle are same. The perimeter of square and rectangle is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                A square in a rectangle have the same perimeter

                The length of a side of the square is 4x-1

                The length of the rectangle is 2x+2 and width is 2x

Step:1

                Let, a - Side of square

                        l - Length of the rectangle

                       w - Width of the rectangle

Step:2

                Formula for perimeter of square is,

                                    [tex]p=4a[/tex].............................(1)

                Formula for perimeter of rectangle is,

                                   [tex]p=2(l+w)[/tex]....................(2)

Step:3

                From given,

                            Equation (1) = Equation (2)

                                 [tex]4a = 2 (l+w)[/tex]

               where,

                         a = 4x-1

                          l = 2x+2

                         w = 2x

               Substitute the values,

                       4 ( 4x-1 ) = 2 ( 2x+2+2x )

                            16x - 4 = 2 (4x + 2)

                            16x - 4 = 8x + 4

                          16x - 8x = 8                      

                                   8x = 8

                                     x = 1

Step:4

         Substitute the values of x,

                   a = 4(1)-1 = 3

                     l = 2(1)+2) = 4

                   w = 2(1) = 2

          Perimeter of square and rectangle is 12 units

Result:

           The value x is 1, if the perimeter of square and rectangle are same. The perimeter of square and rectangle is 12 units.

In ΔWXY, the measure of ∠Y=90°, XW = 53, YX = 28, and WY = 45. What is the value of the cosine of ∠X to the nearest hundredth?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0.53 is the answer to the nearest hundredth.

To calculate the cosine of ∠X in the right triangle WXY, we use the ratio of the adjacent side length (YW = 45) to the hypotenuse length (XW = 53), which results in approximately 0.85 when rounded to the nearest hundredth.

In ΔWXY, we're given that ∠Y is a right angle, meaning that the triangle is a right triangle. To find the cosine of ∠X, we can use the definition of cosine in a right triangle, which is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in the context of the angle we're interested in. Since ∠X is across from side YW, and XW is the hypotenuse, we'll take the length of YW as the adjacent side. The formula for the cosine of angle X then becomes:

cos(∠X) = adjacent/hypotenuse = YW / XW = 45 / 53

Calculating this value, we get cos(∠X) = 0.8490566037735849, which when rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.85.

The probability that a certain state will be hit by a major tornado (category F4 or F5) in any single year is 1/18. Use this information to answer the questions below
(A) What is the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row?​

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row is 0.00309.

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events are those events that are not affected by the occurrence (or no occurrence) of other events. These events do not affect the probability of another even taking place.

For example, the events of winning a lottery and being late for work are independent or the events of taking a cab home and making dinner are also independent.

In this case we are provided that the probability that a certain state will be hit by a major tornado is, [tex]\frac{1}{18}[/tex].

Consider the event that a state was hit by the major tornado.

The event of the major tornado hitting a state a second time next year is not dependent on the fact that it had already hit that state last year.

The two events are independent.

Compute the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row as follows:

P (Tornado hits twice) = P (Tornado in 1st year) × P (Tornado in 2nd year)

                                     [tex]=\frac{1}{18}\times \frac{1}{18}\\=0.00309[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row is 0.00309.

Final answer:

The probability that a state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row, given that the probability for any single year is 1/18, is 1 in 324.

Explanation:

The question is asking about the probability that a certain state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row, given that the probability for any single year is 1/18. In this question, the two events are independent, meaning that the occurrence of a tornado in one year does not affect the occurrence of a tornado in the next year. Therefore, we can simply multiply the probabilities for each year to find the two-year probability.

To calculate, we take the probability of a tornado in one year (1/18) and multiply it by the same probability for the next year (which is also 1/18).

So, the calculation is (1/18) * (1/18) = 1/324.

This means that the probability that the state will be hit by a major tornado two years in a row is 1 in 324.
