one of the 50 states is chosen at random What is the probability of not choosing a state with the letter N?

8 states start with the letter N. Because you’re looking for the amount of states not starting with the letter N, we’ll subtract 8 from 50. Then you’ll put that over the total amount of states. So you should end up with 42/50 which will simplify to 21/25. Hope this helped!

<span>First thing you'll need to know is that the value for this equation is actually an approximation 'and' it is imaginary, so, one method is via brute force method.

You let f(y) equals to that equation, then, find the values for f(y) using values from y=-5 to 5, you just substitute the values in you'll get -393,-296,-225,... till when y=3 is f(y)=-9; y=4 is f(y)=48, so there is a change in </span><span>signs when 'y' went from y=3 to y=4, the answer is between 3 and 4, you can work out a little bit deeper using 3.1, 3.2... You get the point. The value is close to 3.1818...

The other method is using Newton's method, it is similar to this but with a twist because it involves differentiation, so </span>y_{n+1}=y_n-\frac{f(y)}{f'(y)}<span> where 'n' is the number you approximate, like n=0,1,2... etc. f(y) would the equation, and f'(y) is the derivative of f(y), now what you'll need to do is substitute the 'n' values into 'y' to find the approximation.</span>

What is the common ratio between successive terms in a sequence?<br> 1.5, 1.2,0.96, 0.768, ...
Vanyuwa [196]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the first two terms is ...

  1.2/1.5 = 4/5 = 0.8

That is also the ratio of successive adjacent terms.

  0.96/1.2 = 0.768/0.96 = 0.8

The common ratio is 0.8.

What is the angular velocity of a 6–foot pendulum that takes 3 seconds to complete an arc of 14.13 feet?
son4ous [18]
<span>First find the central angle A in degree. Perimeter circle 2Pi*R --> 360 deg Arc A = 14.13 --> x deg (360*14.13)/2Pi*R = 5086.8/37.68 = 135 deg The pendulum rotates 135 deg in 3 sec. Then, the angular velocity is : 135/3 = 45 deg/sec.

Hope this helps!

What is the value of the expression?<br> 2 1/4 divided by 1 2/5
ad-work [718]

Answer:

45/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert them to mixed fractions

(2 * 4 + 1) / 4 ÷ (1 * 5 + 2) / 5

8 + 1 / 4 ÷ 5 + 2 / 5

9/4 ÷ 7/5

Flip the second fraction and flip the sign - to multiply.

9/4 × 5/7

9 × 5 = 45

4 × 7 = 28

45/28

This could be left as a fraction or converted to a number:

1.60714285714
