Marge correctly guessed whether a fair coin turned up "heads" or "tails" on sic consecutive flips. What is the probability that she will correctly guess the outcome of the next coin toss?

Answers

Answer 1
The probability of guessing a coin flip outcome is 0.5 (50%) and it is independent of the outcome of the previous flips:
P(guessing the 7th flip, after six consecutive flips) = 0.5


Also, we can use the compound probability, which can be found by simply multiplying the probabilities of each event:
P(guessing 7 in a row) = 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 
                       = (0.5)⁷
                       = 0.0078

Hence, the probability that Marge correctly guesses the 7th flip is still 50%, but in general, the probability of guessing 7 consecutive flips is 0.78%.
Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

 It is given that ,Marge correctly guessed whether a fair coin turned up "heads" or "tails" on sic consecutive flips.

When we flip a coin , there are two possible Outcomes, one is Head and another one is Tail , that is total of 2.

Probability of an event

         [tex]=\frac{\text{Total favorable Outcome}}{\text{Total Possible Outcome}}[/tex]

Probability of getting head

                      [tex]=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Probability of getting tail

                      [tex]=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

⇒There can be two guesses , either it will be true and another one will be false.

So, Possible outcome of correct guess={True, False}=2

--Probability of Incorrect(False) guess

                       [tex]=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

--Probability of Correct(True) guess in seventh toss

                       [tex]=\frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 100\\\\=50 \text{Percent}[/tex]

⇒Probability that she will correctly guess the outcome of the Seventh coin toss, if previous sixth tosses has correct guess

  =T×T×T×T×T×T×T, where T=True guess

  = 0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5×0.5

 =0.0078125

=0.0078 (approx)

A and b are independent events. the probability that a will happen is 1/4 and the probability that b will happen is also 1/4. what is the probability they will both happen?

Answers

To find the probability of both things happening you just have to multiply them by each other.

1/4*1/4=1/16
Final answer:

For independent events A and B, the probability of both happening is the product of their individual probabilities. In this case, the probability of both A and B happening is 1/16.

Explanation:

In the field of probability in mathematics, when dealing with independent events like A and B in your question, the probability of both A and B happening (denoted as P(A AND B)) is calculated by multiplying the probability of A happening (P(A)) by the probability of B happening (P(B)) This is known as the multiplication rule for independent events.

So, if the probability that A will happen (P(A)) is 1/4, and the probability that B will happen (P(B)) is also 1/4, then the probability that both A and B will happen (P(A AND B)) is (1/4) * (1/4) = 1/16.

A standard number cube is tossed. Find P (3 or odd)

A. 1/2
B. 2/3
C. 1/3
D. 1/6

Answers

Total number of possible outcomes = 6

Total number of outcomes with 3 or odd = 3
They are : 1, 3, 5

P(3 or odd) = 3/6 = 1/2

Answer: 1/2
E = event space = set of outcomes we want to happen
E = set of numbers that are either 3 or odd
E = {1, 3, 5}

S = sample space = set of all possible outcomes
S = set of all the values on the standard number cube (aka dice)
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

There are 3 items in the event space out of 6 total in the sample space
Using math notation, we can say n(E) = 3 and n(S) = 6. The small n means "number". So writing "n(E)" means "number of items in the event space".

So,
P(3 or odd) = n(E)/n(S)
P(3 or odd) = 3/6
P(3 or odd) = 1/2

The probability as a fraction is 1/2, which is 0.5 in decimal form. This represents a chance of 50%. Note: since 3 is an odd number, saying "P(3 or odd)" is the same as just saying "P(odd)"

Rent-a-car rents compact cars for a fixed amount per day plus a fixed amount for each mile driven Benito rented a car for 6 days drove it 550 miles and spent $337. Lisa rented the same car for 3 days drove it 350 miles and spent $185. What is the charge per day and charge per mile for the compact car?

Please show all work! TYSM! ☺♥♫

Answers

If charge per day =x
and charge per mile =y

6x + 550y = 337
3x + 350y = 185

multiple the second equation by 2
6x+700y=370
subtract the first equation from this equation
150y=33
y=0.22

Now we plug the y back in to one of the initial equations to get the value of x

3x+350(0.22)=185
x=36

Charge per day is $36 and charge per mile is $0.22

The charge per day and charge per mile for the compact car is $36 and $0.22 respectively

let

x = charge per day

y = charge per mile

6x + 550y = 337 (1)

3x + 350y = 185 (2)

multiply (2) by 2

6x + 700y = 370 (3)

6x + 550y = 337 (1)

subtract (1) from (3)

700y - 550y = 370 - 337

150y = 33

y = 33/150

y = 0.22

substitute y = 0.22 into (2)

3x + 350y = 185

3x + 350(0.22) = 185

3x + 77 = 185

3x = 185 - 77

3x = 108

x = 108/3

x = 36

Therefore, charge per day and charge per mile for the compact car is $36 and $0.22 respectively

The equation for a projectile's height versus time is h(t)=-16t^2+Vt+h. A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the air from a height of 2 feet, with an initial speed of 130 feet per second. Which equation correctly models the ball's height as a function of time?

Answers

For this case we must use the projectile equation for this problem.
 We have then:
 h (t) = - 16t ^ 2 + Vt + h
 Where,
 V: initial speed
 h: height
 For the tennis ball we have:
 h (t) = - 16t ^ 2 + 130t + 2
 Answer:
 
An equation that correctly models the ball's height as a function of time is:
 
h (t) = - 16t ^ 2 + 130t + 2

The maximum height at the moment is 266.0625 ft.

Projectile's height

The equation for a projectile's height versus time is

[tex]&h(t)=-16 t^{2}+V t+h \\[/tex]

h = 2

V = 130

Substitute these values into the function

[tex]$h(t)=-16 t^{2}+130 t+2$[/tex]

Take the first derivative

[tex]$h^{\prime}(t)=-16* 2 t+130[/tex]

[tex]=-32 t+130$[/tex]

Equate the derivative with zero [tex]$h^{\prime}(t)=0$[/tex].

Solve the equation -32 t + 130=0

32 t = -130

t = -130 /(-32)

= 4.0625(s) .

Find the maximum height at the moment

t = 4.0625 (s)

h(4.0625) [tex]= -16(4.0625)^{2}+130 * 4.0625+2[/tex]

= - 264.0625+528.125+2

Write an equation of the direct variation that includes the point (6, –2). y = –3x

Answers

Answer:

-1/3x is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Do the problem.

An equation of the direct variation that includes the point (6, –2) is y = -1/3(x).

What is a direct variation?

In Mathematics, a direct variation is also referred to as direct proportion and it can be modeled by using the following mathematical expression or function:

y = kx

Where:

y represents the y-variable or dependent variable​.x represents the x-variable or independent variable.k represents the constant of proportionality.

Under direct variation, the value of x represent an independent variable while the value of y represents the dependent variable. Therefore, the constant of proportionality (variation) can be calculated as follows:

Constant of proportionality (k) = y/x

Constant of proportionality (k) = -2/6

Constant of proportionality (k) = -1/3

Therefore, the required equation is given by;

y = kx

y = -1/3(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if a figure or solid shape is dilated to create a new shape then the new shape is similar to the original shape.

Also, the scale factor of dilation is the ratio of the sides of new shape to the corresponding sides of the original shape .

Let k be the scale factor of dilation, then

Given : Original shape - larger prism

New shape - smaller prism

Surface area of prism with all sides equal (a)=[tex]4a^2[/tex]

Surface area of original prism =[tex]4(10)^2=400[/tex]

Let
Fishing reel = x
Fishing rods = y

Therefore,
2x + 5y = 195 ---- 1
4x + 3y = 131 ---- 2

Solving 1 and 2 above;
Multiply expression 1 by 2 and subtract 2 from the results;
4x + 10y = 390
4x + 3y = 131
-------------------
0x + 7y = 259 => y = 259/7 = 37

Using the value of y in expression 1;
2x + 5(37) = 195
2x + 185 = 195
2x = 10
x = 10/2 = 5

Therefore, the price of fishing reels is $5 and fishing rods is $37.

we know that
In a square pyramid we have five faces, 4 triangles and 1 square. So to determine surface area we need to take the areas of the triangles and square and add them all up

The square's area is relatively simple:

A=b²
A=6²=36 ft²

But now let's observe the triangles, a triangle's area is:

A=(1/2)*b*h

the base is equal to 6 ft

b=6 ft

AC=BC----------> because the angle is 45°

AC=6 ft/2----> 3 ft

so

BC=3 ft

A=(1/2)*6*3----> 9 ft²

Multiply the triangle's area by four to account for all four triangular faces and add the squares area for your answer
