To calculate the distance,you would just multiply the amount of inches times the amount of miles per inch. 7 * 25 = 175. Therefore, the actual distance is 175 miles.

The first term of a geometric sequence is 32, and the 5th term of the sequence is 818 .

sammy [17]

Answer:

$32,24,18,\frac{27}{2} ,\frac{81}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y , and z be the numbers.

Then the geometric sequence is $32,x,y,z,\frac{81}{8}$

Recall that term of a geometric sequence are generally in the form:

$a,ar,ar^2,ar^3,ar^4$

This implies that:

a=32 and $ar^4=\frac{81}{8}$

Substitute a=32 and solve for r.

$32r^3=\frac{81}{8}$

$r^4=\frac{81}{256}$

Take the fourth root to get:

$r=\sqrt[4]{\frac{81}{256} }$

$r=\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore $x=32*\frac{3}{4} =24$

$y=24*\frac{3}{4} =18$

$z=18*\frac{3}{4} =\frac{27}{2}$

Your drawer contains 10 red socks and 7 blue socks. It's to dark to see which are which,but you grab two anyway.What is the prob

den301095 [7]

P(both red)=(10/17)(9/16)
P(both blue)=(7/17)(6/16)

P(both same)= sum of above 2 = (90+42)/(16*17)=132/(16*17)=<span>0.485

coz both same means both blue or both red
