Mathematics
1 answer:
Pie1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

  • a₁ = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • d = - 1
  • a₇ = - 2

<u>Find</u> a₁

Use the nth term equation of AP

  • aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

Apply to the given case and solve for a₁

  • - 2 = a₁ + 6(- 1)
  • - 2 = a₁ - 6
  • a₁ = 6 - 2
  • a₁ = 4

Two dance teams, the Roses and the Tulips, are perfectly matched so that their chances of winning are both set at 50%. What is t
shtirl [24]

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

The fist step is to define the probabilities.

The events are independent from each other. Each team wins with probability \frac{1}{2} and looses with probability \frac{1}{2}.  Let P(W_R) be probability that Roses win and P(L_R)  be the probability that Roses loose.

Step 2

The second step is to calculate the probabilities by multiplying the probabilities with the first 3 terms in the product being the probability of a win and the last term being the probability of a loss.

The calculation is shown below,

P(W_R)\times P(W_R)\times P(W_R)\times P(L_R)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{16}

Step 3

The last step is to convert this probability into a percentage. Converting this probability to a percentage is  done as shown below,

\frac{1}{16} \times 100\%=6.25\%.

Step 4

The next step is to round down the percentage . The value of 6.25% rounded down is 6%. The correct answer is 6%.

Help me please I’m begging you:(

Answer:

Chips = 14

Pretzel = 14

Cookie = 8

Popcorn = 13

Question Mark = 222

Step-by-step explanation:

First Equation:

Chips + Pretzel + Chips = 42

Third Equation: Chips = Pretzel.

This means that

Pretzel + Pretzel + Pretzel = 42

Pretzel = \frac{42}{3} =14

Chips = Pretzel

Chips = 14

Second Equation:

Cookie + Chips + Cookie = 30

We know that Chips = 14.

Cookie + 14 + Cookie = 30

Subtract 14 on both sides:

Cookie + Cookie = 16

Cookie = 16\div 2 =8.

Fourth Equation:

Cookie + Cookie + Popcorn = 29

We know that Cookie = 8.

8 + 8 + Popcorn = 29

16 + Popcorn = 29

Subtract 16 on both sides:

Popcorn = 13.

Question Mark:

(Popcorn + Popcorn) \times Cookie + Chips = (13 + 13) \times 8 + 14 = 26 \times 8 + 14 = 208+14=222
