Answer:

1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of rolling 3 in a dice = 1/6.

Probability of rolling 2 = 1/6

Since, 2 should be followed after 3; we multiply 1/6 and 1/6

1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36.

The two rolls of the number cube are independent events because

the result of 1 roll does not affect the result of the other roll.

To find the probability of two independent events, we first find

the probability of each event, then we multiply the probabilities.

We can find the probability of an event using the following ratio:

number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes

Since there is only one way to roll a 3 and there are six

possible outcomes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, the probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6.

Since there is also only one way to roll a 2 and there are

six possible outcomes, the probability of rolling a 2 would be 1/6.

Now we multiply the probabilities.

1/6 x 1/6 is 1/36.

So the probability of rolling a 3 and a 2 is 1/36.

Tell whether the relation is a function.

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to tell if a relation is a function is to look at the x coordinates. If none of them are the same in the set, then the relation is a function. If any of the x values are used more than once in the set, it is only a relation. This set uses -3 two times, so it is a relation.

Find the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence 4, -4, -12, -20

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The sum of the first 20 terms is -1440.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence:

4, -4, -12, -20...

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{k}{2}(a+x_k)$

Where k is the number of terms, a is the initial term, and x_k is the last term.

Since we want to find the sum of the first 20 terms, k = 20.

Our initial term a is 4.

Our last term is also the 20th term as we want the sum of the first 20 terms.

To find the 20th term, we can write an explicit formula for our sequence. The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$x_n=a+d(n-1)$

Where a is the initial term, d is the common difference, and n is the nth term.

Our initial term is 4. From the sequence, we can see that our common difference is -8 since each subsequent term is eight less than the previous term. Therefore:

$x_n=4-8(n-1)$
