Answer:

160/1001, 175/1001

Step-by-step explanation:

i) There are:

₈C₁ ways to choose 1 new camera from 8 new cameras

₆C₃ ways to choose 3 refurbished cameras from 8 refurbished cameras

₁₄C₄ ways to choose 4 cameras from 14 cameras

The probability is:

P = ₈C₁ ₆C₃ / ₁₄C₄

P = 8×20 / 1001

P = 160 / 1001

P ≈ 0.160

ii) At most one new camera means either one new camera or no new cameras.  We already found the probability of one new camera.  The probability of no new cameras is the same as the probability of choosing 4 refurbished cameras:

P = ₆C₄ / ₁₄C₄

P = 15 / 1001

So the total probability is:

P = 160/1001 + 15/1001

P = 175/1001

P ≈ 0.175

Solve the system of linear equations.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

1. No solution

2. Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve the system, set the equations equal to each other and solve for x.

2x - 5 = 2x + 7

-5 = 7

This is a false statement. This means there is no solution.

2. To solve the system, graph each equation.

y = -3/4 x - 5/2 has a y-intercept -5/2 and slope -3/4.

3x + 4y = -10 converts to y = -3/4x -5/2.

This graphs as the exact same line. This system has infinite solutions.

n200080 [17]
The dependent value is determine by the value of the independent value. in other words, the dependent value is what you get when you take the independent value and substitute it in the original equation or situation. The relationship is multiplicative because you must first multiply the independent value in the equation where the x is before you can add or subtract to get your answer.<span />

Find an explicit rule for the nth term of a geometric sequence where the second and fifth terms are -6 and 162, respectively.
Step2247 [10]
Hello,

a(2)=-6
a(3)=-6*r
a(4)=-6*r²
a(5)=-6*r^3=162
a(5)/a(2)=r^3=162/(-6)=-27==>r=-3

a(1)=-6/(-3)=2
a(2)=2*(-3)
a(3)=2*(-3)²
a(4)=2*(-3)^3
a(5)=2*(-3)^4

a(n)=2*(-3)^(n-1)
