Spin a spinner numbered 1-8 two times, land on two the first time and

2 answers:

8 0

The <u>correct probability</u> is 1/16.

Explanation:

There is 1 section marked 8 out of 8 sections. This makes the probability of landing on an 8 1/8.

The factors of 4 on this spinner are 1, 2, 4 and 8. This makes 4 sections out of 8, which makes the probability of landing on a factor of 8 equal 4/8=1/2.

Together, the probability of both events would be 1/8(1/2) = 1/16.

Answer:

Required probability = 1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

When we spin a spinner numbered 1-8, we find that each spin is independent of the other.

HEnce probability for getting any number from 1 to 8 will be equal to 1/8 and remain the same for each spin.

So Probability on two for the first time and factor of 8 on the second time

=Prob (landing on 2)*Prob (landing on any factor of 8)

P(landing on 2) = 1/8

Factors of 8 are 1,2,4,8

Prob (landing on factor of 8) = 4/8

Hence required prob = 1/8(4/8) =1/16

Answer:

30/441

Step-by-step explanation:

6/21 chance to draw nickel on the first one. since you dont replace coins, there is a 5/20 chance of drawing a dime on the next one.

6/21x5/20= 30/441

Which one of these formulas describes the following sequence?<br><br> 1,5,12,22,35

kati45 [8]

We can find a formula for nth term of the given sequence as follows:

1, 5, 12, 22, 35

The 1st differences between terms:

4, 7, 10, 13

The 2nd differences :

3, 3, 3

Since it takes two rounds of differences to arrive at a constant difference between terms, the nth term will be a 2nd degree polynomial of the form: $a n^2 + b n + c$ , where c is a constant. The coefficients a, b, and the constant c can be found.
