Answer:
The first term of the geometric series is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the first term of a geometric series, given the common ratio, and the sum of the first 8 terms.
Mathematically, the sum of terms in a geometric series can be calculated as;
S = a(r^n-1)/( r-1)
where a is the first term that we are looking for
r is the common ratio which is 3 according to the question
n is the number of terms which is 8
S is the sum of the number of terms which is 3280 according to the question
Plugging these values, we have
3280 = a(3^8 -1)/(3-1)
3280 = a( 6561-1)/2
3280 = a(6560)/2
3280 = 3280a
a = 3280/3280
a = 1
Answer:
option a)
0.286
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
number of red pens in cup = 5
number of black pens in cup = 10
number of pen randomly selected = 3
There are 5 red pens and 10 black pens. So there are 5 + 10 = 15 pens in all.
probability of having all red pens = (5/15 x 4/14 x 3/13)
= 2/91
probability of having all black pens = (10/15 x 9/14 x 8/13)
= 24/91
probability that all pen are of same colour = 24/91 + 2/91
= 2/7
≈ 0.286
