Lenny rolls two number cubes. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers Lenny rolls is either 4 or 7?

Mashutka [201]

Probability of an event =

(number of ways the event can happen) / (total number of possible outcomes) .

Well, the total number of possible outcomes is easy. It's

(6 possibilities for the first cube) x (6 possibilities for the 2nd cube)

= 36 total possible ways for two cubes to roll.

Now, how many of those possibilities show either 4 or 7 ?

Well, here's how a 4 can come up:

1 . . . 3

2 . . . 2

3 . . . 1

and here's how a 7 can come up:

1 . . . 6

2 . . . 5

3 . . . 4

4 . . . 3

5 . . . 2

6 . . . 1 .

So there are 9 ways all together for Lenny to be successful.

The probability is (9/36) .

That's 1/4 , or 25% .

Flying fish use their pectoral fins like airplane wings to glide through the air. Suppose a flying fish reaches a maximum height

GrogVix [38]

The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and 1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-

y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5

when x = 0 y = 0 so

0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5

which gives a = -0.018365

So our function for the flight path is

y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5 Answer

For every integer k from 1 to 10, inclusive the "k"th term of a certain sequence is given by (−1)(k+1)∗(12k). If T is the sum of

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Option D. is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question expression that represents the kth term of a certain sequence is not written properly.

The expression is $(-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})$ .

We have to find the sum of first 10 terms of the infinite sequence represented by the expression given as $(-1)^{k+1}(\frac{1}{2^{k}})$ .

where k is from 1 to 10.

By the given expression sequence will be $\frac{1}{2},\frac{(-1)}{4},\frac{1}{8}.......$

In this sequence first term "a" = $\frac{1}{2}$

and common ratio in each successive term to the previous term is 'r' = $\frac{\frac{(-1)}{4}}{\frac{1}{2} }$

r = $-\frac{1}{2}$

Since the sequence is infinite and the formula to calculate the sum is represented by

$S=\frac{a}{1-r}$ [Here r is less than 1]

$S=\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{1+\frac{1}{2}}$

$S=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2} }$

S = $\frac{1}{3}$

Now we are sure that the sum of infinite terms is $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Therefore, sum of 10 terms will not exceed $\frac{1}{3}$

Now sum of first two terms = $\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}$

Now we are sure that sum of first 10 terms lie between $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{3}$

Since $\frac{1}{2}>\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, Sum of first 10 terms will lie between $\frac{1}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Option D will be the answer.
