A fair coin is tossed four times. What is the probability of obtaining at least three tails?

A Fair Coin Is Tossed Four Times. What Is The Probability Of Obtaining At Least Three Tails?

Answers

Answer 1

The probability of obtaining at least three tails is; 5/16

When tossing a coin four times, the number of possibilities since one is either a tail or head is;

Total number of possibilities = 2⁴ = 16

Now, various ways of getting at least three tails are;

TTTH, TTHT, THTT, HTTT, and TTTT.

This is a total of 5 different ways.

Thus;

P(obtaining at least 3 tails) = 5/16

Joshua is flying a kite, holding his hands a distance of 3.75 feet above the
ground and letting all the kite's string play out. He measures the angle of
elevation from his hand to the kite to be 28°. If the string from the kite to his
hand is 140 feet long, how many feet is the kite above the ground? Round
your answer to the nearest hundredth of a foot if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the ground is level

h = 3.75 + 140sin28

h = 69.47601...

h = 69.48 ft.

The height of the kite above the ground is 69.48 ft

Right angle triangle:A right angle triangle is a triangle that has one of its angle as 90 degrees. Therefore,

Using trigonometric ratio, the opposite side of the triangle formed can be calculated as follows:

sin 28° = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 28° = x / 140

x = 140 sin 28

x = 140 × 0.46947156278

x = 65.72601879

x = 65.73

The height of the kite from the ground = 65.73 + 3.75 = 69.48 feet

Problem 1

Answer: Choice A

[tex]f(n) = 59,000\left(1.08^{n-1}\right)[/tex]

---------------------------

Explanation:

The right hand side for choice A is in the form [tex]a(r)^{n-1}[/tex] which is the nth term of a geometric sequence.

a = first term = 59,000 = starting salaryr = common ratio = 1.08 = tells us how the salary increases year to year

The 1.08 represents an increase of 8% because,

Problem 2

Answer: Choice C

[tex]\frac{(y-60)^2}{144} + \frac{x^2}{100} = 1[/tex]

---------------------------

Explanation:

The ellipse is 20 inches wide, which cuts in half to 10 inches. This is the corresponding value plugged into the denominator of the 'x' fraction, as x deals with the horizontal component. So we'll have a^2 = 10^2 = 100 in the denominator under the x term. Only choice C has this, so this is the answer we go for. For the vertical component, we cut 24 in half to get 12, then square it to get 144, which explains the denominator for the y term.

Problem 3

Answer: Choice C

30 feet; major axis

---------------------------

Explanation:

Pick the larger denominator 225. Apply the square root to get 15. Then double this value to land on 30. This is the length of the major axis which is the longer axis through the center of the ellipse. The major axis also passes through both foci.

Let's say points P and Q are any two random points on the ellipse. The longest segment PQ can get is 30 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: I am confused if the 896 is a percent or the money she owes every year, now here is the explanation.

Emily took the £580 and after the 4 years she owes 896*4 = £3,584 plus the original £580 which is £4,164

The weights for newborn babies is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 5.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 1.6 pounds.


Consider a group of 800 newborn babies:


1. How many would you expect to weigh between 3 and 8 pounds?


2. How many would you expect to weigh less than 6 pounds?


3. How many would you expect to weigh more than 5 pounds?


4. How many would you expect to weigh between 5.5 and 9 pounds?

Please help and STEP BY STEP PLZ.

Answers

Compute each probability. The strategy is to transform X, a random variable representing the weight of newborns, to another random variable Z that represents the same but scaled quantity so that Z is normally distributed with mean 0 and s.d. 1. To do this, we use the rule

X = 5.5 + 1.6 Z

or

Z = (X - 5.5)/1.6

then use a calculator to compute the probability, or look it up in a table. Multiply this probability by 800 to find the number of newborns in each category.

1.

Pr[3 ≤ X ≤ 8] = Pr[(3 - 5.5)/1.6 ≤ (X - 5.5)/1.6 ≤ (8 - 5.5)/1.6]

… ≈ Pr[-1.5625 ≤ Z ≤ 1.5625]

… ≈ 0.8818

Out of 800 babies, you would expect around 88% of them, or about 705 babies to weight between 3 and 8 pounds.

2.

Pr[X < 6] = Pr[(X - 5.5)/1.6 ≤ (6 - 5.5)/1.6]

… = Pr[Z ≤ 0.3125]

… ≈ 0.6227

Out of 800 babies, around 498 will weigh less than 6 pounds.

3.

Pr[X > 5] = Pr[(X - 5.5)/1.6 > (5 - 5.5)/1.6]

… = Pr[Z > -0.3125]

… ≈ 0.6227

same as (2) due to the symmetry of the distribution (Z is centered at zero). Out of 800 babies, you can expect around 498 in this group.

4.

Pr[5.5 ≤ X ≤ 9] = Pr[(5.5 - 5.5)/1.6 ≤ (X - 5.5)/1.6 ≤ (9 - 5.5)/1.6]

… = Pr[0 ≤ Z ≤ 2.1875]

… ≈ 0.4857

Out of 800 babies, around 388 will weigh between 5.5 and 9 pounds.
