T_n = 3 * T_(n-1)
Long way (always works!)
T_5 = 3*T_4,
T_4 = 3*T_3
T_3 = 3*T_2
T_2 = 3*T_1
T_5 = 3*3*3*3*T_1 = 81*T_1 = 81*8 = 648!
Short way (sometimes it works!)
T_n = 3^(n-1) * T_1 (this case is a geometric series of ratio-=3)
T_5 = 3^4*8 = 648

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To find this probability, we have to know:
- How many numbers are there in between 5 and 8 inclusive?
- How many total numbers are there?
We simply divide the first answer by the second one and get our probability.
So, the numbers are 5,6,7,8 ----- that is 4 numbers
How many numbers are there in total? That is:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 ------- 9 numbers
Thus, the probability is 4/9
