This is equal to the probability that no light fail.  Probability of  one light not failing = 0.98.

P(no light fails) = 0.98^20  =   0.67  or 67%   to nearest percent.

Can someone actually answer this question pls its my 3rd time posting it and ill ive gotten was wrong or answers that make no se

Answer:

(-2+-5) equals -7.

Because the signs are the same, we dont change it.

(3+5) equals 8. Same like the other equation, the signs are the same so we do not change it.

Now we do (-7+8) The answer will be 1. Lets use a little graph since its hard to explain.

-8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Mark -7 anyway you want. (Circle it, draw a line under it, what ever you want.)

Now Move the line 8 times.

When you do that your line will stop at 1.

And thats how you do it.

The sequence 2,6,18,54 shows the number of sit-ups Alan can do each day.
jek_recluse [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

this sequence is geometric not arithmetic

HOw we know that ??

when we get a common difference  that must Be equal  

d=6-2=4  not equal to  d=18-6=12

So it is not arithmetic

but when we get the common ratio that also must be equal

r=6/2=18/6=54/18=3    equal

So it is geometric

By using this equation:

a(n)=a(1)*r^(n-1)

and we have a(1)=2 , r=3    

<u>Explicit rule:</u> a(n)=2*(3)^(n-1)

<u>Recursive rule:</u>  a(n)= r * a(n-1)

a(n-1) ⇒ priviuse term

SO:  a(n)= 3 * a(n-1)

For example:

a(3)= 3 * 6 =18
