Answer:

The probability of winning three games in a row is 1/64 or 1.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of winning a game = 1/4

Probability of winning two games in a row = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16

Probability of winning three games in a row = 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/64

Probability of winning three games in a row = (1/4)³ = 1/64

1/64 = 0.015625

1/64 = 1.6% (rounding to the next tenth)

Please help me :) with this math problem, it's exponential functions.

noname [10]

Answer:

f(x) = 9(5/3)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(b^x)

x = 0

9 = a(b⁰)

9 = a

f(x) = 9(b^x)

x = 1

15 = 9(b¹l

b = 15/9

b = 5/3

f(x) = 9(5/3)^x

Point Q is the center of dilation. Lines segment S U is dilated to form line segment S prime U prime. The length of Q S is 3 .2

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the dilation rule is $D_{Q,2.5}$ . It means the center of dilatation is point Q and scale factor is 2.5.

Scale factor is the ratio of distance from center to the image of a point and distance from center to the corresponding point.

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{QU'}{QU}$

It is given that QU=4 and scale factor = 2.5.

$2.5=\dfrac{QU'}{4}$

Multiply both sides by 4.

$2.5\times 4=QU'$

$10=QU'$

We know that

$UU'=QU'-QU$

$UU'=10-4$

$UU'=6$

The distance between U' and U is 6 units.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
