Answer: The answer is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(n+1) = f(n)

If n= 1

f(2) = f(1)

if n= 2

f(3) = f(2) = 9 {since f(3) is 9}

Since f(2) is now 9 and f(2) = f(1), therefore f(1) will also be 9.

In a statistics class there are 18 juniors and 10 seniors; 6 of the seniors are females and 12 of the juniors are males. If a st

Answer:

a) 0.857

b) 0.571

c) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the data given, we have

18 juniors
10 seniors
6 female seniors
10-6 = 4 male seniors
12 junior males
18-12 = 6 junior female
6+6 = 12 female
4+12 = 16 male
A total of 28 students

The probability of each union of events is obtained by summing the probabilities of the separated events and substracting the intersection. I will abbreviate female by F, junior by J, male by M, senior by S. We have

P(J U F) = P(J) + P(F) - P(JF) = 18/28+12/28-6/28 = 24/28 = 0.857

P(S U F) = P(S) + P(F) - P(SF) = 10/28 + 12/28 - 6/28 = 16/28 = 0.571

P(J U S) = P(J) + P(S) - P(JS) = 18/28 + 10/28 - 0 = 1

Note that a student cant be Junior and Senior at the same time, so the probability of the combined event is 0. The probability of the union is 1 because every student is either Junior or Senior.

Answer:

5 miles per hour and 15 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Isabella and Tanner are running in a 100-mile relay race.

First, Isabella runs for 2 hours and hands off to Tanner, who bicycles for 6 hours to the finish line.

Tanner's average cycling speed is 5 miles an hour less than 4 times Isabella's average running speed.
