Jess and Brian are playing the following game: Jess thinks of a fraction, and Brian flips a coin. If the coin turns up heads, Jess multiplies the number she's thinking of by $\frac{5}{6}$. If the coin turns up tails, she multiplies the number she's thinking of by $\frac{6}{5}$. Brian flips the coin ten times, and after each flip Jess multiplies the number in her head by either $\frac{5}{6}$ or $\frac{6}{5}$, depending on the coin flip. The ten coin flips turn out to be:\[ \text{THTTHTHTTT}, \]where H means 'heads' and T means 'tails.' What number is Jess thinking of at the end of the game if she starts out with the fraction $\frac{5}{9}$

Finding the slope between two points on a line and solving for the y-intercept in the slope-intercept equation y=mx+b allows us to formulate an equation for that line.

A linear equation has the slope-intercept form y = mx + b. Variables in the equation are x and y. When x is 0, the integers m and b provide the line's slope (m) and the value of y. (b).

Because (0,y) is the location where the line crosses the y-axis, the value of y when x is 0 is referred to as the y-intercept.

the value of x would be 22/3 after simplification.

The acts or process of simplifying something such that it is simpler to accomplish or understand, or the item that is the consequence of such simplifying: The group offers suggestions on how to make trade procedures simpler. In mathematics, we generally use the PEMDAS method to simplify the values.

Given, the equation in the form of x is  3/4(x−8)= −1/2

For the value of x

3/4(x−8)= −1/2

multiply by 4 on both sides

3(x - 8) = -2

divide by 3 into both the sides

x - 8 = -2/3

add 8 on both sides

x = -2/3 + 8

x =  22/3

therefore, the value of x for the given equation 3/4(x−8)= −1/2 is 22/3.

To prove that (4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) is positive for all values of x, we can start by expanding the expression:

(4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) = 16x^2 - 40x + 25 - 15x^2 + 40x = -14x^2 + 80x - 25

Now, we can complete the square to find that this expression is always positive:

-14x^2 + 80x - 25 = (-14x^2 + 80x) - 25

= (-14x^2 + 80x + (80/2)^2 - (80/2)^2) - 25

= (-14x + 40)^2 - 25 - 40^2 + 40^2

= 15^2 - 25

= (15 - 5)(15 + 5)

= 10(20)

= 200

Since this expression is equal to 200, which is a positive number, we can conclude that (4x - 5)^2 - 5x(3x - 8) is positive for all values of x.

A hypothesis (plural: hypotheses), in a scientific context, is a testable statement about the relationship between two or more variables or a proposed explanation for some observed phenomenon.

Have given ,

H0: p = 0. 65 ,  Ha: p < 0. 65 and  the z test statistic is found to be -2. 35.

From the test statistic value, we can obtain the p value of the test ,

To determine if the claim is significant at both α = 0.05 and α = 0.01

We compare the Z statistic and Z critical values

If Z statistic < Z critical ; then we reject H0; if otherwise, we fail to reject H0

Z critical at 95% one tailed = - 1.645 (left tail)

Z critical at 95% one tailed = -2.326 (left tail)

- 2.35 < - 1.645

-2. 35 < 2.326

The equivalent ratio that represents Cameron's run is 1 : 8

Equivalent Ration:

In mathematics, the definition of equivalence ratio says: The equality of two ratios is also called a ratio. Front and follow have different values, but reducing them to their simplest form gives the same value.

For example, to find out if 2:3 and 16:24 are equivalent ratios, we need to reduce both ratios to their simplest form. The HCF of 2 and 3 is 1, so 2:3 is already in the simplest form. The HCF for 16 and 24 is 8. Divide these two numbers by 8 to get the reduced form. This means (16÷8):(24÷8) = 2:3. It's clear that 2:3 and 16:24 are the same value, equivalent ratios.

The probability the coin comes up all heads or all tails after 4 tosses is 12.5%.

Probability refers to the ratio, chance, likelihood, or odds that an expected outcome is achieved when there are many possible outcomes.

Probability is a fractional value, especially when the odds of the occurrence of the expected event are not 100% uncertain or certain.

In this case, probability lies between zero and one.

Odds of a coin coming up either heads or tails every time = 1:7
