Answer:

  Converges; 51 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is -10/60 = (5/3)/-10 = (-5/18)/(5/3) = -1/6.

Then the sum of the sequence is given by ...

  S = a1/(1 -r) = 60/(1 -(-1/6))

  S = 60/(7/6) = 360/7

  S = 51 3/7

_____

If you erroneously evaluate the formula for the sum using +1/6 as the common ratio, then you will get S=60/(1-1/6) = 60·6/5 = 72.

42 + 28 + 12 + 18 = 100 total beads

probability of not drawing a yellow or a green : (12 + 18) / 100 = 30/100 reduces to 3/10 or 30%

probability of drawing a red or green : (18 + 28) / 100 = 46/100 reduces to

Please find the function rule and explain how you got it so it helps me understand better. I am SO bad with function rules. ;-;
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The function rule for x is +1. When you want to get the next number in the set, you add one to the previous number. For example, -1 + 1 = 0.

The function rule for y is - 5. When you want to get the next number in the set, you subtract five to the previous number. For example, 9 - 5 = 4.

Hope this helps!

Suppose planet A's diameter is approximately 8 times planet B's and both bodies are spheres. What is the ratio of their volumes?
lana [24]

Answer:

The ratio of planet B's volume to planet A's volume is 1:512 or 1/512

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of sphere = 4/3 π r^3

r = d/2

Radius of palnet A = 8/2 = 4

Radius of planet B = 1/2

Since 4/3 π is same in both volumes so, they cancel out when finding ratio.

Now ratio depends on radius cube of both planets

Volume of Planet B : Volume of Planet A

4/3 π(1/2)^3 :  4/3 π(4)^3

Cancelling  4/3 π on both sides

1/8 : 64

Multiply 8 on both sides

1 : 512

So, The ratio of planet B's volume to planet A's volume is 1:512 or 1/512
