Answer:

The probability of bowling 3 consecutive strikes is 0.3890.

Explanation:

On any given turn, this player has a 73% chance of bowling a strike. Hence:

Probability of bowling a strike = P(S) = 73% = 0.73

We need to find the probability of this player bowling 3 consecutive strikes. This is computed as follows:

Probability of bowling 3 consecutive strikes

= Probability of bowling first strike x Probability of bowling second strike x Probability of bowling third strike

= P(S) x P(S) x P(S)

= 0.73 x 0.73 x 0.73

= 0.3890

A person on a moving sidewalk travels 40 feet in 8 seconds. The moving sidewalk has a length of 200 feet. How long will it take
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The man covers 200 ft in 40 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

A person is moving on the sidewalk from one end to the other end.

He walks 40 feet in 8 seconds.

Therefore his speed = \frac{distance covered}{time}

                                   = \frac{40}{8}

                                   = 5 ft/s^{2}

He covers the sidewalk distance at a rate of 5 feet every second.

To calculate the time taken to cover 200 ft,

time = \frac{distance to be covered}{speed}

time =\frac{200}{5}

<u>time  = 40 seconds</u>

Hence the man covers 200 ft in 40 seconds.

What are the first three terms of the sequence: a1 = 3 and an = 2(an -1)^2?. . a. 2, 8, 18. . b. 3, 18, 648. . c. 3, 32, 50. . d
AlexFokin [52]
The first term of the sequence is already given to be 3. Use this value to obtain the second term.
                                     a2 = 2(a1)^2 = 2(3)² = 18
Use the value of the second term to get the third term through the equation,
                                     a3 = 2(a2)² = 2(18)² = 648
Thus, the answer to this item is letter B.
