Given

\Sigma_{n=1}^\infty15(-4)^n

The first 10 partial sums are as follows:

S_1=\Sigma_{n=1}^{1}15(-4)^n=15(-4)=\bold{-60} \\  \\ S_2=\Sigma_{n=1}^{2}15(-4)^n=\Sigma_{n=1}^{1}15(-4)^n+15(-4)^2 \\ =-60+15(16)=-60+240=\bold{180} \\  \\ S_3=\Sigma_{n=1}^{3}15(-4)^n=\Sigma_{n=1}^{2}15(-4)^n+15(-4)^3 \\ =180+15(-64)=180-960=\bold{-780} \\  \\ S_4=\Sigma_{n=1}^{4}15(-4)^n=\Sigma_{n=1}^{3}15(-4)^n+15(-4)^4 \\ =-780+15(256)=-780+3,840=\bold{3,060} \\  \\ S_5=\Sigma_{n=1}^{5}15(-4)^n=\Sigma_{n=1}^{4}15(-4)^n+15(-4)^5 \\ =3,060+15(-1,024)=3,060-15,360=\bold{-12,300}

S_6=\Sigma_{n=1}^{6}15(-4)^n=\Sigma_{n=1}^{5}15(-4)^n+15(-4)^6 \\ =-12,300+15(4,096)=-12,300+61,440=\bold{49,140}

The rest of the partial sums can be obtained in similar way.

List the members of P(fa, b, c, d}). Which are proper subsets of fa, b,c, d)?
ankoles [38]

Answer: As i understand, the set is P = {a,b,c,d}

then all the proper subsets are all the sets that belongs to P, that are different of P. Then A is a subset of P if all the elements of A belongs to P, but A is not equal to P

this is:

the sets of one element : {a}, {b}, {c}, {d} and the null set; ∅

sets of two elements: {a,b} , {a,c} , {a.d}, {b,c}, {b,d}, {c,d}

sets of three elements : {a,b,c}, {a,b,d}, {a,c,d}, {b,c,d}

and there arent sets of 4 elements or more.

On a spinner, there are twenty equal-size sections numbered from 1 to 20. Which spinner game is fair? Show your work.
Anvisha [2.4K]

The spinner game is an illustration of probability, and the spinner game that is fair is (b) If you spin a number greater than 10, you win.

<h3>How to determine the fair game?</h3>

The number of sections in the spinner is given as:

n = 20

There are 10 numbers greater than 10 i.e. 11 to 2.

So, the probability that a number greater than 10 is spun is:

P = 10/20

P = 0.5

The probability that a number that is not greater than 10 is spun is calculated using the following complement rule

q = 1 - p

This gives

q = 1 - 0.5

Evaluate

q = 0.5

Notice that both probabilities are the equal

Hence, the spinner game that is fair is (b) If you spin a number greater than 10, you win.
