There are two ways for finding p, here is one way:

1/2 = 4p

Multiply both sides by 2:
1 = 8p

Divide both sides by 8:
0.125 = p

Answer:
p = 0.125

Hope it helped :)

Solve for p

1/2 = 4p

We know 1/2 is 0.5

we need to isolate p (It means solving for p)

0.5 / 4 = 4p / 4

4 and 4 cancels out

0.125 = p

1/2 = 4p

1/2 ÷ 4 = 4p / 4

4 and 4 cancels out

1/2 x 1 / 4 = p

{1/4 is the reciprocal of 4}

1/8 = p

Which is also 0.125 = p

1/2 = 4p

2 x 1/2 = 2 x 4p

2 and 2 cancels out

1 = 8p

divide 8 by 1 to isolate p

1/8 = 8p/8

8 and 8 cancels out

1/8 = p

0.125 = p

Show that 3 · 4^n + 51 is divisible by 3 and 9 for all positive integers n.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

$3\cdot 4^n+51=3\cdot 4^n+3\cdot 17=3(4^n+17)$

So this is divisible by 3.

Now, to prove that this is divisible by 9 = 3*3 we need to prove that

$4^n+17$ is divisible by 3. We will prove it by induction.

Step 1 - for n = 1

4+17=21= 3*7 this is true

Step 2 - we assume this is true for k so $4^k+17$ is divisible by 3

and we check what happens for k+1

$4^{k+1}+17=4\cdot 4^k+17=3\cdot 4^k + 4^k+17$

$3\cdot 4^k$ is divisible by 3 and

$4^k+17$ is divisible by 3, by induction hypothesis

So, the sum is divisible by 3.

Step 3 - Conclusion

We just prove that $4^n+17$ is divisible by 3 for all positive integers n.

A warehouse employs 21 workers on first shift, 15 workers on second shift, and 13 workers on third shift. Eight workers are ch

Crank

Answer: Our required probability is 0.11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of workers in first shift = 21

Number of workers in second shift = 15

Number of workers in third shift = 13

We need to find the probability of choosing exactly two second shift workers and two third shift workers.

So, it becomes,

$\dfrac{^{15}C_2\times ^{13}C_2\times ^{21}C_4}{^{49}C_8}\\\\=0.11$

Hence, our required probability is 0.11.
