Answer:
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
21:2x=7:10 can be rewritten as 21/2x=7/10
21/2x=7/10, cross multiply
= 14x=210
x=15
The formula
a(n) = 2 - 5(n-1)
is in the form
a(n) = a1 + d(n-1)
where
a1 = first term = 2
d = -5 = common difference
The first term is carried over to the recursive formula. We start with a1 = 2. The next term after that is found by subtracting 5 from the previous term. So
second term = (first term) - 5
third term = (second term) - 5
and so on
The recursive step would be
a(n) = a(n-1)-5
So that's why the answer is choice C

Answer:
The probability is 1/8 or 0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the probability that when a coin is flipped there would be a show of heads three times.
In flipping of a coin, there are only two possible results with equal probability. The probability of both events i.e P(H) and P(T) is equal and that is 1/2
Thus the probability of getting heads three times in a row will be P(HHH) meaning P(H) and another P(H) and another P(H)
When we have and in a probability question, that means we are to multiply the probabilities together.
Hence, P(HHH) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8
