I’m not sure what happened while you were writing this, but if I’m reading it right, “My” has 18 books. If “My” has 3 times as many as 6, that also means 3 times 6, which is 18.
Answer:
341
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of people who know the art of quilting in each successive generation is
1, 4, 16, …
These numbers represent a geometric sequence where each term has the form
aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹
In your sequence, a₁ = 1 and r = 4.
Then, the formula for your sequence is
aₙ = 4ⁿ⁻¹
Sum over five generations
The formula for the sum of the first n terms of a geometric series is
Sum = a₁[(1 - rⁿ)/(1 - r)]
Sum = 1[(1 - 4⁵)/(1 - 4)
= (1 - 1024)/(-3)
= -1023/-3
= 341
If the process continues for five generations, 341 people will know the art of quilting.
Answer:
0.2941 = 29.41% probability that it was manufactured during the first shift.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Defective
Event B: Manufactured during the first shift.
Probability of a defective item:
1% of 50%(first shift)
2% of 30%(second shift)
3% of 20%(third shift).
So

Probability of a defective item being produced on the first shift:
1% of 50%. So

What is the probability that it was manufactured during the first shift?

0.2941 = 29.41% probability that it was manufactured during the first shift.
First things first, write out your equation without the substitution.
2x+ 2y= 10
Now, put in the substitution.
2x+ 2• 2= 10
Combine like terms.
2x+ 4= 10
Now that your equation it simplified, you need to reverse the problem and put everything on the other side.
2x+ 4= 10
- 4 - 4
2x = 6
2x=6
— —
2 2
X= 3
So the final answer is x=3
