How do you use a tree diagram to determine the expected value

Step 1:Draw lines to represent the first set of options in the question (in our case, 3 factories). Label them (our question list A B and C so that is what we’ll use here).

Step 2: Convert the percentages to decimals, and place those on the appropriate branch in the diagram. For our example, 50% = 0.5, and 25% = 0.25.

Step 3: Draw the next set of branches. In our case, we were told that 70% of factory A’s output was passenger. Converting to decimals, we have 0.7 P (“P” is just my own shorthand here for “Passenger”) and 0.3 NP (“NP” = “Not Passenger”).

Step 4:Repeat step 3 for as many branches as you are given.


Step 5: Multiply the probabilities of the first branch that produces the desired result together. In our case, we want to know about the production of passenger places, so we choose the first branch that leads to P.

Step 6: Multiply the remaining branches that produce the desired result. In our example there are two more branches that can lead to P.

Step 6: Add up all of the probabilities you calculated in steps 5 and 6. In our example, we had:

.35 + .0625 + .0625 = .475

That’s it!

What is the rule for the following geometric sequence? 64,128,256,512...
professor190 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 64 and r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{128}{64} = 2 , then

a_{n} = 64 (2)^{n-1} → B

Translate (5, 1) to the right 3 units.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

When you translate either left or right, the x coordinate is the one that you change. To go right when you are dealing with a point, you must add the amount you are asked to go right.  So when you go right 3 units, add 3 to the 5.

(5 + 3,1) = (8,1)

when going across the y axis, you are still only changing the x coordinate.

All you need do is put a minus sign in front of the  x coordinate. So your final answer is (-8,1)

How would you explain the proper use of distributive property ? ​
