Answer:
P(n) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For two events which are independent, we use the multiplication rule which states P (A and B) = P(A) * P(B). Substitute P(m) = 0.4 and P(m and n) = 0.2 into this formula.
P (m and n) = P(m) * P(n)
0.2 = 0.4*P(n)
Divide by 0.4 on both sides.
0.2 / 0.4 = P(n)
0.5 = P(n)
Answer: The common ratio is -1/3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Pick any term to divide it by the previous term. I'm going to pick the second term and divide it by the first term.
r = common ratio
r = (term 2) divided by (term 1)
r = (4/9) divided by (-4/3)
r = (4/9) * (-3/4)
r = (4*(-3))/(9*4)
r = -12/36
r = -1/3
The common ratio is -1/3
This means you multiply each term by -1/3 to get the next term
For instance
term 2 = r*(term 1)
term 2 = (-1/3)*(-4/3)
term 2 = ((-1)*(-4))/(3*3)
term 2 = 4/9
The first box is -7 and the other one is just 7
Answer:
1. 5 2. 31 3. 55
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2(4)-3=8-3=5
2. 4(7)+3=28+3=31
3. 3(4)+8(7)-13=12+56-13=56-1=55
