Mathematics

brilliants [131]3 years ago

Answer: -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that, in geometric sequences, the ratio between the consecutive terms is constant.This is called "Common ratio" and is represented with "r".

We need to find the common ratio of this geometric sequence:

Divide one term by the previous term:

r=\frac{-4}{-2}\\\\r=2

Then, the next term asked in the exercise can be found by multiplying -4 by 2.

Therefore, this is:

next\ term=(-4)(2)\\\\next\ term=-8

In a jar, there is a green, a blue, and a red marble. You draw (with replacement) a marble from the jar until you get the green
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The value is P( X = m ) = (\frac{2}{3} )^{m-1 } * \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

From question we are told that

   The number of types of marbles present jar is n  =  3

Generally the probability of drawing a green marble is  

     P(g) =  \frac{1}{3}

Generally the probability of drawing a marble that is not green is  

     P(g') =  1 - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3}

From the question we are told that there will be continuous drawing of marbles from the jar (in such a way that after each marble is drawn it is being replaced) until a green marble drawn

  Let m be the number of times marbles has been drawn when a green marble was gotten

it then means that for m - 1 times the marbles where drawn a green marble was not obtain.

Generally the probability drawing m times is mathematically is mathematically represented as

    P( X = m ) = (P(g'))^{m-1 } * P(g)

=>  P( X = m ) = (\frac{2}{3} )^{m-1 } * \frac{1}{3}
