Answer:

a = -50/51

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 2a + 3 + 4a + 5 + 6a + ...... + 97 + 98a + 99 + 100a = 0

  1 +   3 +   5 + ...  + 99 +   2a +    4a + ... + 98a + 100a = 0     Eq. 1

99 + 97 + 95 + ... +    1  + 98a + 96a + ... +   4a  +    2a  = 0    Eq. 2

Add Eq. 1 and Eq. 2

100 + 100 + ... + 100 + 102a + 102a + ... 102a = 0

50(100)/2 + 50(102a)/2 = 0

2500 + 2550a = 0

2550a = -2500

a = -2500/2550

a = -250/255

a = -50/51

Martin is seating people in the cars of a roller coaster. Each car can seat 8 people. Six of the roller coaster cars are yellow
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The probability is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the probability that the first person will sit in a yellow roller coaster car

The number of cars to select from is 6 + 9 = 15 cars

The number of yellow cars is 6

So the probability that the first person selects a yellow roller coaster car to seat is 6/15 = 2/5
