Answer:

1024/59049, 1.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do it would to be simply multiply 2/3 by itself 10 times

2/3 x 2/3 x 2/3 x 2/3 and so on

That would be a really long equation so instead we can use exponents to shorten it. We can simply just do 2^10/3^10

2^10=1024

3^10=59049

1024/59049, 1.7%

Answer:

1024/59049

Step-by-step explanation:

P( clear hurdle) = 2/3

There are 10 hurdles

P ( clear all hurdles) = P( clear hurdle) * P( clear hurdle)...... 10 times

                                 = 2/3 * 2/3 *....... 10 times

                                  = (2/3) ^ 10

                                  =1024/59049

y = x - 6 → (1)

x = - 4 → (2)

Substitute x = - 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y
