[*]The probability of heads on a fair coin is 1/2.

For each of the outcomes, we assign a probability. Since the coin flip and die roll are independent, we multiply the probabilities:

[*]P(Heads and 4) = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12
[*]P(Heads and 5) = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12

A parking meter contains 27.05 in quarters and dimes. All together there are 146 coins. How many ofA parking meter contains 27.05 in quarters and dimes. All together there are 146 coins. How many of each coin are there?
Let d = the number of dimes and q = the number of quarters. We have two equations:
(1) d + q = 146
(2) 0.1d + 0.25q = 27.05
Rearrange (1) into (3) solving for d
(3) d = 146 - q
Substitute (3) into (2)
0.1(146 - q) + 0.25q = 27.05
14.6 - 0.1q + 0.25q = 27.05
Combine q's
0.15q + 14.6 = 27.05
Subtract 14.6 from each side
0.15q = 12.45
Divide each side by 0.15
[B]q = 83[/B]
Plugging that into (3), we have:
d = 146 - 83
