First, lets observe this pattern.
We can notice that each number when multiplied by 3 gives the following number as:
4 x 3 = 12
12 x 3 = 36
36 x 3 = 108
108 x 3 = 324

Based on this, the next number in the pattern will be:
324 x 3 = 972

The right choice is:
c. 972

Why does the value of money in a savings account increase over time? A. because it earns interest B. because future value is alw

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

A. because it earns interest

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate is the gaining that you make for keeping your money in the bank. Suppose you have $100 and the bank offers you a 5% annually interest rate. The rate (5%) means that your money will earn five percent of the value each year, so after the first year you will earn (5%)*($100) = $5 of interest just for keeping your money in your savings account. Therefore, your money will grow overtime because it is earning interest. Remember that interest can be compound (over periods) or simple (like our example).

Find the 37th term of 352,345,338

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$a_{37}=100$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A sequence 352,345,338.

First term = 352

Common difference = 345-352 = -7

We need to find the 37th term of the sequence.

The nth term of an AP is given by :

$a_n=a+(n-1)d\\\\a_{37}=352+36\times (-7)\\\\a_{37}=100$

So, the 37th term of the sequence is 100.

A fair coin is flipped twelve times. What is the probability of the coin landing tails up exactly nine times?

seraphim [82]

Answer:

$P\left(E\right)=\frac{55}{1024}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fair coin is flipped twelve times.

It means the number of possible sequences of heads and tails would be:

2¹² = 4096

We can determine the number of ways that such a sequence could contain exactly 9 tails is the number of ways of choosing 9 out of 12, using the formula

$nCr=\frac{n!}{r!\left(n-r\right)!}$
