Answer: 84

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of the questions is 9

Possible question is 3

This is combination

Therefore n=9 and r=3

Combination formula=n! / ((n-r)! r!)

Over time, Bailey has buried 6 large bones and 9 small bones in a hole. What is the ratio of small bones to large bones in the h
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

to write a ratio, we can do ?:? in order. for example, 5 big shops to 10 small shops would be 5:10 (we are going to simplify it later) You always have to put the ratio numbers in order like they are in the question. In this case, small bones : big bones. We get 9:6. We can then divide both sides by a common factor, in this case 3. The end result is 3:2. Hope this helps!

An arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a constant difference of 5.
larisa [96]
An arithmetic sequence (a_n) is as follows:

a_1\\a_2=a_1+d\\a_3= a_1+2d\\a_4=a_1+3d,... where a_1 is the first term and d is the constant difference, 

thus, we see that the n'th term of an arithmetic sequence is a_n=a_1+(n-1)d


in our particular case d=5, the third term is 8, so we have:

a_3=8=a_1+2\cdot5\\\\8=a_1+10\\\\a_1=-2


and the general term is a_n=-2+5(n-1),


Answer: first term is -2, n'th term is -2+5(n-1)
