The first term is -43.
Explanation:
an = a + (n - 1)d
a12 = a + 11d = 56, first equation
a21 = a + 20d = 101, second equation
Subtract the second equation from the first equation, cancelling +a and -a
11d - 20d = 56 - 101
-9d = -45
d = 5
Subtitute d into the first equation
a + 99 = 56
a = -43
a refers to the first term, hence the first term is -43.

Answer:
1/45
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 10 marbles
P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 2/10 = 1/5
We do not replace the marble
There are 9 marbles, 1 of which is yellow
P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 1/9
P ( yellow, no replacement, yellow) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45
