1/8 because if I choose a black one first then put it back there isn't a 50% chance
Answer:
Well, for one thing I can't read the image--it's too small!
But I know these problems well. If I am correct, this is a spinner probability problem.
Your spinner appears to have 5 sectors, all equal in area, therefore making their probability equal.
So each of those has a prob of 1/5 in the scheme of things.
To find the combonational probability below, multiply the prob of each outcome together to find each.
Have a great day, and feel free to comment with questions!

Answer:
the answer is b.13 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
a²+b²=c²
Answer: Choice B
a_n = 10(1/2)^(n-2) is the nth term
average rate of change = -35/3
=======================================================
Explanation:
Each time x increases by 1, y is cut in half. For instance, going from (2,10) to (3,5) shows this.
If we want to go in reverse, decreasing x by 1 will double the y value. So (1,20) is another point and (0,40) is another. We'll be using (0,40) and (3,5) because we want the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 3. I'm using x in place of n here.
Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line through (0,40) and (3,5)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (5-40)/(3-0)
m = -35/3
The negative slope means the line goes downhill as you read it from left to right. The average rate of change from n = 0 to n = 3 is -35/3
The nth term of this geometric sequence is 20(1/2)^(n-1) since 20 is the first term (corresponds to n = 1) and 1/2 is the common ratio. Your teacher has done a bit of algebraic manipulation to change the n-1 into n-2. This means the 20 has to change to 10 to counterbalance.
In other words, 20(1/2)^(n-1) is equivalent to 10(1/2)^(n-2) when n starts at n = 1.
