 Probability-and-statistics/325274: You are given 12 to 1 odds against tossing 3 tails in 3 tosses of a fair coin. This means that you win $12 if you succeed and you lose$1 if you fail. Find the expected value(to you) of the game. Round to the nearest cent.1 solutions Answer 232946 by solver91311(16885)   on 2010-07-24 20:18:58 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The probability of successes in trials where the probability of success on any given trial is is given by: where is the number of combinations of things taken at a time and is computed using For this problem, given a fair coin, the probability of success on any given trial is , and you want 3 successes out of 3 trials, hence: You can calculate this for yourself. Hint: and anything to the zero power is 1. That gives you the probability of winning. The probability of losing is . The expected outcome is the amount you lose whenever you lose times the probability of losing plus the amount you win whenever you win times the probability of winning. John
 Probability-and-statistics/325275: When two balanced dice are rolled,there are 36 possible outcomes. Find the probability that the sum is a multiple of 3 or greater than 8.1 solutions Answer 232940 by solver91311(16885)   on 2010-07-24 19:27:17 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Successful outcomes are 3, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12. 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8 don't count because none of them are either multiples of 3 or greater than 8. (8 is just 8, NOT greater than 8). To make a 3 you need 1 & 2 or 2 & 1, so 2 ways. To make a 6 you need 1 & 5, 2 & 4, 3 & 3, 4 & 2, or 5 & 1, so 5 ways. You get to figure out the number of ways to make each of 9, 10, 11, and 12. Once you have determined the number of ways to make each of the allowable combinations, add them all up to make the numerator of your probability fraction. You already have the denominator, i.e. the number of possible outcomes. John
 Finance/325273: Find the slope, if it exists x=-5 m= use integer or a simplfied fraction Type N if the slope is undefined.1 solutions Answer 232939 by solver91311(16885)   on 2010-07-24 19:18:36 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The equation describes the set of all ordered pairs such that nobody cares what is, so long as . Therefore, and represent two elements of such a set. Given two points on a line, you can compute the slope of the line: . That is a rational expression with a zero denominator. What do you know about expressions with a zero denominator? John

Since Glenn cuts a strip meters wide all the way around, each of the dimensions of the rectangle left for Brad is the original dimension reduced by . The entire lawn area is 30 times 40 meters or 1200 square meters. That means we need to choose so that Brad's piece which measures by is half of that area or 600 square meters. Expand the binomials, put the equation in standard form, and then solve the resulting quadratic for . John
 Geometry_proofs/324750: given trapezoid abcd with diagonals ac and bd intercept at point e prove triangle dec is congruent to triangle bea1 solutions Answer 232466 by solver91311(16885)   on 2010-07-22 13:59:47 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! This can't be done in general. The two triangles described are NOT congruent in a general trapezoid. If the trapezoid is isosceles, meaning the base angles are of equal measure, then the diagonals are of equal measure and the congruence of the two described triangles follows easily. John
 Travel_Word_Problems/324748: Can someone please help me work through this word problem? A flare is fired directly upward into the air from a boat that is experiencing engine problems. The height of the flare (in feet) above the water, t seconds after being fired, is given by the formula h = -16t2 + 128t + 15. If the flare is designed to explode when it reaches its highest point, at what height will this occur?

I'm presuming you mean: And that you want to solve the equation for To the extent that is all true, please remember the following things for the next time you post. 1. The proper way to render on the standard keyboard is log_b(x). 2. Take the time to tell us what it is you want. Just putting in a problem and not saying anything else sends a very strong message, to wit: "Here chump, go do my homework for me. I've got more important things to occupy my time, like video games or hanging out at the mall." That sort of thing is not very conducive to getting someone to help you. =================================== First, convert the base of the log function in the RHS to the same base as the log function in the LHS: Use the log base conversion formula: So: But since we now have: Put everything into the LHS: Multiply both sides by Let and substitute: Factor: Hence: Substitute back: Use the definition of the log function: Hence: Which is to say: Check: Checks!

Make two columns, one labeled and the other labeled (or whatever two variables your equation uses). Pick a value for . Write that value in the column. Substitute that value into the equation in place of and then do the arithmetic to determine the resulting value of . Write this result in the column. Repeat as often as you like, although for a linear equation, you really only need to do it twice for any given equation. That is because two points uniquely determine a line (remember geometry?) Hint: Save yourself from inconvenient (read error-prone) arithmetic. When picking values for , small integers generally work the best. If the coefficient on is a fraction, pick the denominator or an integer multiple of it as a replacement for . John

First use: The sum of the logs is the log of the product, that is: Then use the definition of a logarithm: Which factors tidily. You will, as is usual with a quadratic equation, get 2 roots. However, in this case, and any time you are solving problems where you start out with functions, such as logarithms, that have restricted domains, you MUST check BOTH answers. It is possible that the original equation will have 2, 1, or 0 valid answers. Remember that the argument of the logarithm function, regardless of the base, must be strictly greater than zero. John
 test/324529: You drop a penny from a 70-foot high bridge. What is the velocity of the penny when it hits the water below? Neglect the effect of air resistance and round your answer to the nearest unit.1 solutions Answer 232255 by solver91311(16885)   on 2010-07-21 20:09:05 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! The height of an object in vertical motion near the earth's surface at time is given by: Where is the initial velocity (assumed to be zero for this problem since the penny was dropped, not thrown) and is the initial height, 70 feet in this case. We want to know the time when We are ignoring the negative square root since it is unlikely that we will be able to make time go backwards. The instantaneous velocity of a falling object at time is given by: Clever calculus students will recognize this function as the first derivative of the height function. All that is required is to calculate the velocity at the time calculated above, recalling that : You can push buttons on a calculator as well as I can. "But wait," you say, "why is the velocity negative?" Easy, the penny is going downward. John
