Mariah has a spinner that has 10 equal sections, each containing a different number from 1 to 10. Mariah determines about how ma

ny times the spinner will land on a number that is greater than 7 in 250 spins, and her work is shown below.
P (number greater than 7) = StartFraction Number greater than 7 over Total number of sections EndFraction times number of spins = StartFraction 4 over 10 EndFraction (250) = 100.

What mistake did Mariah make, if any?
Mariah has the formula reversed; it should be the total number of sections over the numbers greater than 7.
Mariah should have used a 3 in the numerator because there are 3 numbers greater than 7.
Mariah should multiply by the number of sections in the spinner rather than the total number of spins.
Mariah calculated the prediction correctly and did not make any mistakes.
ASAP plz

There are 10 total numbers.

10 - 7 = 3, so there are 3 numbers greater than 7.

Mariah should have used a 3 in the numerator because there are 3 numbers greater than 7.

Find the sum of the first six terms of a geometric series in which a1 = 4 and r = -3: A. 729 B. -729 C. -728 D. 728 plz help
natta225 [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

S_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^n-1) }{r-1}

Here a₁ = 4 and r = - 3, thus

S_{6} = \frac{4((-3)^6-1)}{-3-1}

    = \frac{4(729-1)}{-4} = - (729 - 1) = - 728 → C
