A bag contains two coins, one for which the probability of heads is equal to 1 and one for which the probability of heads is equal to p. A coin is selected at random, and three independent tosses of this coin result in three heads. What is the probability that a further independent toss of this coin will produce a head?a. p4/1 + p3.b. p3 - p2/1 + p3.c. p3/1 - p.d. 1/1 + p3.e. 1 + p4/1 + p3.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Option E is the correct answer; (1 + p⁴) / (1 + p³)

Step-by-step explanation:

P (3 head) = P(first and 3 heads) + P(second coin and 3 heads)

= (1/2)×1³ + (1/2)× p³ = (1/2) × (1 + p³)

therefore P(first coin given 3 heads) = (1/2)×1³/ ((1/2)×(1 + p³))

= 1 / (1 + p³)

Also P( second coin given 3 heads) = p³ /(1 + p³)

therefore P(4th toss in heads given first 3 are heads)  will be;

= P(first and 4th toss heads) + P(second and 4th toss heads)

=(1/( 1 + p³ )) × 1 + p³ / (1+p³) × p

= (1 + p⁴) / (1 + p³)

Therefore Option E is the correct answer

The first 6 terms of a sequence are shown below.
96, 48, 24, 12, 6, 3,...
What is the 12th term of the sequence?

Answers

Answer:

It would either be (1.5, 1 1/2, or 3/2) - they are all the same value just written differently.

Step-by-step explanation:

going from left to right, you can see the pattern of the sequence is to divide each number by 2.

96/2 is 48; 48/2 is 24; 24/2 is 12; 12/2 is 6; 6/2 is 3

taking that knowledge, you would divide 3 by 2, resulting in 1.5 ; 2/3 ; or 1 1/2

Do you guys know this.

Answers

Answer:

0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

You solve the inner first, then move to the outer.

Plug in x = 20 for g(x) = [tex]\frac{2x+2}{x-6}[/tex]. It should give you [tex]\frac{42}{14}[/tex], which simplifies to 3.

You then need to solve f(x) with the given value from g(x), which is 3.

Plug in x = 3 for the equation [tex]\sqrt{0.4x^2-x}[/tex], and you should get [tex]\sqrt{0.6}[/tex].

The answer is roughly 0.77.

An investment portfolio offers a plan that will increase your holdings 30%

half the time, and lose you 20% the other half. Is this a worthwhile

investment for 1) one year, and 2) for the long term?

Answers

Answer:

It is a worthwhile investment for both one year and for the long term.

Step-by-step explanation:

While the investment will obtain in the first half of the year gains of 30%, and in the second half of the year losses by 20%, at the end of the year the benefit obtained by the investment will be greater than 0%. Therefore, both within a year and in the long term, it is a viable and favorable investment, since it will yield positive results at the end of the cycle.

So, for example, an initial investment of $ 100 would operate in the following way:

-First half of the year: 100 x 1.3 = 130

-Second half of the year: 130 - (130 x 0.2) = 104

Thus, at the end of the year a profit of 4% of the initial investment will be obtained.

David made an error when determining the product of (–2.5)(–8.3). Step 1: (–2.5)(–8.3) = (–8.3)(–2.5) Step 2: = (–8.3)(–2) + (–8.3)(–0.5) Step 3: = (–16.6) + (–4.15) Step 4: = –20.75 In which step did David make his first error?​

Answers

Answer:

David make his first error at Step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine the error David made when finding the product of (-2.5)(-8.3)

He did the following steps

Step 1: (–2.5)(–8.3) = (–8.3)(–2.5)

Step 2: = (–8.3)(–2) + (–8.3)(–0.5)

Step 3: = (–16.6) + (–4.15)

Step 4: = –20.75

David made a mistake in Step 3

When we multiply (-1) with (-1) we get + instead of - sign. The correct step 3 would be:

Step 3: =(16.6)(4.15)

Step 4: =20.75

So, David make his first error at Step 3

The fire department has seen an increase in smoke detector sales since 2015. In 2015,
they sold 350 detectors which is up from the previous year by 105%. How many did they
sell in the previous year?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount of detectors sold in the current year = 350

percent increment = 105%

To get the amount sold the previous year, we will use the expression;

(105% of x) + x =  350

1.05x = 350 + x

1.05x + x = 350

2.05x = 350

x = 350/2.05

x = 170.7

Hence the amount sold the previous year was 170.7 detectors
