Given that the player made 184 out of 329 throws, the probability of making the next throw will be:
P(x)=[Number of shots made]/[Total number of throws]
=184/329
=0.559
Thus the expected value of proposition will be:
0.599*24+0.559*12
=20.134

Find the sum of the first 20 terms of an arithmetic sequence with an 18th term of 8.1 and a common difference of 0.25.
il63 [147K]

The sum of the first 20 terms of an arithmetic sequence with the 18th term of 8.1 and a common difference of 0.25 is 124.5

Given,

18th term of an arithmetic sequence = 8.1

Common difference = d = 0.25.

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>

The sequence in which the difference between the consecutive term is constant.

The nth term is denoted by:

a_n = a + ( n - 1 ) d

The sum of an arithmetic sequence:

S_n = n/2 [ 2a + ( n - 1 ) d ]

Find the 18th term of the sequence.

18th term = 8.1

d = 0.25

8.1 = a + ( 18 - 1 ) 0.25

8.1 = a + 17 x 0.25

8.1 = a + 4.25

a = 8.1 - 4.25

a = 3.85

Find the sum of 20 terms.

S_20 = 20 / 2 [ 2 x 3.85 + ( 20 - 1 ) 0.25 ]

         = 10 [ 7.7 + 19 x 0.25 ]

         = 10 [ 7.7 + 4.75 ]

         = 10 x 12.45

         = 124.5

Thus the sum of the first 20 terms of an arithmetic sequence with the 18th term of 8.1 and a common difference of 0.25 is 124.5

HELP ASAP! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!​
malfutka [58]

Answer:

r = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

V(cyl) = π · r² · h

144π =  π · r² · 4

144 = r² · 4

<u>144</u> = r²

 4

r = \sqrt{144} ÷ \sqrt{4}

r = 12/2

r = 6

Answer:

21^{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply the 3 and the 7 together, and then "multiply" the exponents -8 and 3. (However, when "multiplying exponents, you're really just adding them together: -8 + 5)

(21^{-5})^2

Then, multiply the -5 and -2 together, giving you:

21^{10}
