The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of occurrence and non-occurrence of an event add up to one.

If p is the probability that an even will happen and q is the probability that it will not happen

Then

$p+q=1$

Here,

Probability of surviving = p = 0.097

Probability of not surviving = q = ?

$0.097 + q = 1\\q = 1 - 0.097\\q = 0.903$

The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

Where should Jenna insert parentheses to make the equation true? 2 + 4.5+ 1 = 26

swat32

The best thing I can think of is
((2)(4))(.5+1)=(2)(6)
because (2*4)(1.5)= 8*1.5
= 12
and 2*6 =12
and 12=12

I hope this is right and I hope it helps!

Which of the following is an arithmetic sequence?

MaRussiya [10]

Answer: {2, -2, -6, -10}

Arithmetic sequences are defined by a common difference between the numbers that’s both constant and consecutive.

To break it down:

The first option is {-1, 3, -3, -1}, which appears to be alternating, and there is more than 1 difference between the n term values. That is:

-1 to 3 = increase of 4
3 to -3 = decrease of 6
-3 to -1 = increase of 2

Therefore does not follow the definition of an arithmetic sequence.

The second option (the answer) {2, -2, -6, -10} is arithmetic, as it consistently and thus consecutively decreases by 4.

Finally, the last two sequences have the same issue with their pattern, {3, 6, 9, 15}
and {4, 14, 24, 32}. In which they stay constant for the first three n terms, but suddenly change in value on the 4th n term. Therefore, they are not arithmetic.

I hope this helped!
