Answer:

\begin{cases}a_1 = 2\\\\a_{n} = -4*a_{n-1}\end{cases}

============================================

Explanation:

The first line of the answer says "the first term is 2".

The second line says "take any term and multiply by -4 to get the next term".

The a_n represents the nth term while a_{n-1} is the term just before it.

The second line shown above is the same as writing a_{n+1} = -4*a_n

---------------

The -4 is found by dividing any term over its previous one

-8/2 = -4

32/(-8) = -4

-128/32 = -4

512/(-128) = -4

This shows the common ratio is -4 and this sequence is geometric.

Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.<br> 8(5g+5−2)=
Vaselesa [24]
You multiply the number 8 to each term in the parentheses. 8 x 5g = 40g; 8 x 5 = 40; 8 x (-2) = -16 Combine these together and it would be 40g + 40 - 16

Solve the following system using the substitution method.
Liono4ka [1.6K]
X = (15 - 8y)/9

-5[(15 - 8y)/9] + 12y = -107

(-75/9) + (40/9) + 12y = -107

y = -8.59

x = [15 - 8(-8.59)]/9

x = 9.3
(x,y) = (9.3, -8.59)

A company is to hire two employees. They have prepared a final list of eight candidates, all of whom are equally qualified. Of t
Softa [21]

Answer:

i) Probability that both candidates employed are women = 5/14

ii) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = 5/8

iii) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability that a man is employed be P(M) = 3/8

Probability that a woman is employed P(W) = 5/8

a) Probability that both candidates employed are women = (5/8) × (4/7) = 5/14

b) Probability that the second candidate is a woman = (probability that first candidate is a man and second candidate is a woman) + (probability that first candidate is a woman & second candidate is a woman)

= (3/8)(5/7) + (5/8)(4/7) = (15/56) + (20/56) = 35/56 = 5/8

c) Probability that the first candidate is a woman given that second one is a woman

Given that the second candidate was a women, means that the first candidate-women was selected among other four women.

Probability = (4/8)/(5/8) = 4/5
