Answer:

-0.075

Step-by-step explanation:

[Player R, Player C] cases & outcomes :-

  • (Vowel, Vowel) = (0,0)
  • (Consonant, Consonant) = (0,0)
  • (Vowel, Consonant) = (6,-6)
  • (Consonant, Vowel) = (-5,5)
  • Prob (R chooses consonant) = 75% = 0.75
  • Prob (R chooses vowel) = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25
  • Prob (C chooses vowel) = 30% = 0.30
  • Prob (C chooses consonant) = 1 - 0.30 = 0.70

Average Loss of R = Expected value of : he choses consonant & C choses vowel; he chooses vowel & C choses consonant

= (0.75)(0.30)(-5) + (0.25)(0.70)(6)

-1.125 + 1.05

= -0.075

What is the rule for the following geometric sequence? 64,128,256,512...
professor190 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 64 and r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{128}{64} = 2 , then

a_{n} = 64 (2)^{n-1} → B

Answer:

The temperature of Savannah's liquid to the nearest degree Fahrenheit is 75.2.

F=(C*9/5)+32

F= 24 *9/5 +32

F= 24*1.8 +32

F= 43.2 +32

F= 75.2
