Answer: 1/45

Step-by-step explanation:

From thw question, we are told that there are:

Yellow marbles =2

Pink marbles =3

Blue marbles = 5

Total marbles = 2+3+5 = 10

The probability of drawing the first yellow ball will be= 2/10

Since the ball is not replaced, that means there will be 9 balls left and 1 yellow ball left. Therefore, the probability of drawing the second yellow ball will be = 1/9

The probability of drawing two yellow balls if they're not replaced will now be:

= 2/10 × 1/9

= 2/90

= 1/45

Which formula can be used to find the nth term of a geometric sequence where the fifth term is 1/6 and the common ratio is 1/4?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fifth term of a geometric sequence = \frac{1}{16}

Common ratio (r) = ¼

Required:

Formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence

Solution:

Step 1: find the first term of the sequence

Formula for nth term of a geometric sequence = ar^{n - 1}, where:

a = first term

r = common ratio = ¼

Thus, we are given the 5th term to be ¹/16, so n here = 5.

Input all these values into the formula to find a, the first term.

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{5 - 1}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{4}

\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{256}

\frac{1}{16} = \frac{a}{256}

Cross multiply

1*256 = a*16

Divide both sides by 16

\frac{256}{16} = \frac{16a}{16}

16 = a

a = 16

Step 2: input the value of a and r to find the nth term formula of the sequence

nth term = ar^{n - 1}

nth term = 16*\frac{1}{4}^{n - 1}

a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}

If you wanted to solve how many hours he worked:
15h + 80 = 140
15h = 60
