The number of ways you can pick 3 people from 9 = 9*8*7 / 3*2*1 = 84

So chance of picking the 3 suspects = 1 / 84.

The number of ways to pick 3 from the 6 innocent people = 6*5*4 / 3*2*1 = 20

Chances of picking 3 innocent people = 20 / 84  or 5/21

En una progresion geometrica el primer termino es 4 ¿ cual debe de ser la razon para que la suma de sus infinitos sea 5?
dem82 [27]

Respuesta:

La proporción común del término puede ser 1/5

Explicación paso a paso:

La fórmula para calcular la suma al infinito de una secuencia geométrica se expresa como:

Sinfty = a / 1-r

Dado

Sinfty = 5

Primer término a = 4

Requerido

Razón común r

Sustituir

5 = 4/1-r

5 (1-r) = 4

5-5r = 4

-5r = 4-5

-5r = -1

r = 1/5

Esto significa que la razón común debe ser 1/5 para que la suma hasta el infinito sea 5
