Answer:

<em>summation of five times negative three to the power of n from n equals zero to infinity</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Summation Notation </u>

It represents the sum of a finite or infinite number of terms. Let's analyze the terms of the given succession:

5-15+45-135+...

If we take 5 as a common factor, we have

5(1-3+9-27+...)

The parentheses contain the alternate sum/subtraction of powers of 3. The odd terms are positive, the even terms are negative, thus the exponent must be n starting from 0 or n-1 starting from 1

The summation is then represented by

\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}5(-3)^n

This corresponds with the option:

<u>summation of five times negative three to the power of n from n equals zero to infinity</u>

From the question we are told that:

3 coin are tossed

Therefore

Sample space n=(HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT).

Generally the sets that correspond with the result of at most one tail is therefore given as follows

P(

Therefore

The result is at most one tail when

P(

Will mark brainliest if correct. Find what the measurement of angles a-d are and state the reason
Furkat [3]

Answer: D = 70  

              A = 30

Explanation: d is parallel to 70 degrees, 40 is parallel to e, and the whole set of angles is 180 so 180 - 2(70) + 2(40)  = 30 so D = 70 and A = 30
