Answer:

\sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;

4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d

a is the first term = 4

d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4

n is the number of terms

On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4

Tn = 4+4n-4

Tn = 4n

The nth term of the series is 4n.

Since the last term is 80, L = 4n

80 = 4n

n = 80/4

n = 20

This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20

According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;

4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80  = \sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

If you roll a standard six sided dice, what is the probability you will roll a four?
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

NEED HELP PLEASE!!! Please explain your answer!
Zanzabum
             <span> You must make it a fraction by multiplying by 100, moving the decimal over by 2 spaces right so we have 36. Then, put it over 100, because it is a fraction. Now, with 36/100 we must simplify by dividing each number by another # that goes into it evenly, such as 2. We get 18/50, reduce by 2, we get 9/25. There you go hope I helped </span>

Your neighbor has a bag with 5 oranges and 7 apples in it. You will be receiving two pieces of fruit from your neighbor. What is
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fruits are removed from the bag, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

5 + 7 = 12 total fruits, which means that N = 12

7 apples, which means that k = 7

You receive 2 fruits, which means that n = 2

What is the probability, in percent, that you will receive 2 apples, assuming she removes them from the bag in random order?

This is, as a proportion, P(X = 2). So

P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}

P(X = 2) = h(2,12,2,7) = \frac{C_{7,2}*C_{5,0}}{C_{12,2}} = 0.3182

0.3182*100% = 31.82%

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.
