<span>Every term in a sequence is denoted by a1 being the first one, a2 the second one, a3 the third one and so on. So in your case, a3 means, which one is the third term? So 100 would be your answer. </span>

Mickey and Donald earn $53 weekend after taxes Mickeys share is seven dollars greater than Donald's how much does Donald earn ea

igor_vitrenko [27]

Donald earns $23 each weekend and Mickey earns $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Money earned by Mickey and Donald = $53

Let,

Share of Mickey = x

Share of Donald = y

According to given statement;

x+y=53 Eqn 1

x = y+7 Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$(y+7)+y=53\\y+7+y=53\\2y=53-7\\2y=46$

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{46}{2}\\y=23$

Putting y=23 in Eqn 2

$x=23+7\\x=30$

Donald earns $23 each weekend and Mickey earns $30.

Find the probability that the hitter makes 10 outs in 10 consecutive at-bats, assuming at-bats are independent events. Hint:

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

0.037

Step-by-step explanation:

If the hitter makes an out 72% of the time, then the probabilty that he makes hit in 1 at-bat is $p=0.72$ and the probabilty that he doesn't make hit in 1 at-bat is $q=1-p=1-0.72=0.28.$
