A school principal has to choose randomly among the six best students in each grade to be the school captain every month. For th

at purpose, she assigned each student a number. Then she rolled two dice numbered from 1 to 6 three times and selected the student whose number was repeated most often
Which of the following best describes the method used by the principal?
a. It's an unfair method because each student will not post the same outcomes.
b. It's a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome
c. It's a fair method because it's a limited number of students.
d. It's an unfair method because two or more students could get the same results

Answer: b. It's a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

The number of students is same as the number of the sides of the dice. In this scenario, the school principal will roll two dices three times and the number that repeated most will be chosen. For every dice, all number will have equally likely possibility so the randomization is fair(1/6 chance for every student).Rolling the dice >1 times will have a problem because there is a high chance to get draw result. It doesn't have any correlation with fairness though.

A group of students is arranging squares into layers to create a project. The first layer has 5 squares. The second layer has 10
True [87]

Answer:

  • Recursive formula:

                                         a_1=5;a_n=5+a_{n-1},n>0

Explanation:

All the shown formulae in the choice list are recursive formulae instead of explicit formulae.

Explicit formulae that represent arithmetic sequences are of the form:

  • a_n=a_1+(d-1)n

That kind of formula permits to determine any term knowing the first term, the number of the term searched, and the common difference (d).

On the other hand, the recursive formulae let you to calculate one term knowing the previous term and the difference.

In this case, the difference in the number of squares of two consecutive terms is:

  • differece = number of squares in the second layer - number of squares in the first layer.

  • d = 10 - 5 = 5

Then, the recursive formula is:

  • a_1=5;a_n=5+a_{n-1},n>0

What is the surface area of a 3x5x8
Leto [7]
Two faces are 3*5 = 15; and because there are two faces you double to get 30;
5*8 = 40, double to get 80,
3*8 = 24, double to get 48, and we add:
48 + 30 + 80 = 158
