It makes that every time we flip a fair the probability of flipping tails is 50%.

Probability determines the chances that a random event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0. If it is equally likely and unlikely that the event would happen, it would have a probability of 0.5

Probability of flipping tails = number of tails / number of sides

1/2 = 0.5 = 50%

Answer:

  x ≈ 8.99

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship between trig functions and sides in a right triangle. Here, the geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle. We are given one side and want to find the difference in lengths of the other side for two different angles.

__

The tower height is the side opposite the angle of elevation. The distance from the tower to the end of the shadow is the side adjacent to the angle of elevation, so the relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(angle of elevation) = (tower height)/(length of shadow)

Solving for the length of shadow, we have ...

  length of shadow = (tower height)/tan(angle of elevation)

The difference in shadow lengths is 2x for the two different angles, so we have ...

  2x = 24.57/tan(30°) -24.57/tan(45°)

__

Dividing by 2 and factoring out the tower height, we have ...

  x = 12.285(1/tan(30°) -1/tan(45°)) = 12.285(√3 -1)

  x ≈ 8.993244

The value of x is about 8.99.

Answer: The value of x is 3.5

Explanation:

Equation:

y = 2x - 7

When the equation's Line intersects the x-axis, the value of y shall be always 0

Insert y = 0, to find x intercept

⇒ 0 = 2x - 7

⇒ 2x - 7 = 0

⇒ 2x = 7

⇒ x = 3.5

So coordinates: (x, y) → (3.5, 0)

The point-slope form of the equation for the line is y - 3 =1/2(x - 2)

From the question, we are to determine the point-slope form of the equation for the line

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given by

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Where (x₁, y₁) is a point on the line

and m is the slope of the line

From the given information,

Slope, m = 1/2

and we have the point (2,3)

∴ The point-slope form of the equation for the line is

y - 3 =1/2(x - 2)

Hence, the point-slope form of the equation for the line is y - 3 =1/2(x - 2)

Problem 1

Any pair of equilateral triangles are always similar triangles. We can use the SSS (side side side) similarity theorem to prove this. One triangle is an enlarged copy of the other, or a shrunken reduced copy.

The rectangle is NOT similar to the square. They are different shapes. Similar figures are figures that are the same shape, but different sizes.

==========================================================

Problem 2

horizontal/vertical = horizontal/vertical

24/x = 6/5

24*5 = 6x

120 = 6x

x = 120/6

x = 20

Answer: The flagpole is 20 ft high (about 2 stories tall)

==========================================================

Problem 3

The formula to use is [tex]z = \sqrt{x*y}[/tex]

z = geometric mean of x and y

We multiply the numbers and take the square root. This only works for two values at a time. The geometric mean of three numbers will involve the cube root. Four numbers involves the 4th root, and so on.

==========================================================

Problem 4

For each figure, the y is the altitude and can be determined using the geometric mean formula.

The decimal values are approximate.

==========================================================

Problem 5

For 45-45-90 triangles, we divide the hypotenuse over sqrt(2) to find the leg length.

For the first triangle in the first row, we have y = 18/sqrt(2) = 9*sqrt(2) after rationalizing the denominator. Multiply top and bottom by sqrt(2).

Take this process in reverse to determine the hypotenuse if you know the leg length. This explains why the hypotenuse is 3.2*sqrt(2) for the second triangle in the first row.

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

For 30-60-90 triangles, we go from the short leg x to the hypotenuse 2x.

Double the short leg to get the hypotenuse.

2x = 36

x = 36/2

x = 18

This is for the first triangle in the bottom row.

For the other triangle in this bottom row, we have a long leg of 4*sqrt(3). This must mean the short leg is exactly 4 units long. Therefore, the hypotenuse is 2*4 = 8 units long.

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

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x+6 =4

x. =4-6

x. =-2

2) x-(-4) =-6

x+ 4. =-6

x. =-6-4

x. =-10

3)2(x-1)=-200

2x-2 =-200

2x. = -200+2

2x. = -198

x. = -198/2

x. = -99

4)2x+(-3) =-23

2x-3. =-23

2x. =-23+3

2x. =-20

x. =-20/2

x. = -10

The system of equations is consistent and independent and the solutions are x = 4, y = 5, and z = -1 option third is correct.

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have three linear equations in three variables:

x - y - z = 0 ..(1)

2x - y + 2z = 1 ..(2)

x - y + z = -2 ..(3)

From the equation (1):

[tex]\rm x=y+z[/tex]

Plug this value in the equation (2) and (3):

[tex]\rm 2\left(y+z\right)-y+2z=1\\\\ y+z-y+z=-2[/tex]

After solving we get:

z = -1

y = 5

Plug the above two values in equation (1) we get:

x = 4

let's look at the point coordinates.

remember, an ordered pair of point coordinates consists of an x value and an associated (typically calculated by a function) y value.

we see that all y values are half of the x values (3 and 1.5, 2 and 1, 7 and 3.5, 8 and 4).

so, the constant in our equation is responsible for returning half of the x value back as the y value.

x × c = x/2

c = 1/2
