5. the numbers are being multiplied by 4 each time, so the geometric sequence would be
an= 1/2(4) ^(n-1)
6. the numbers are being multiplied by 1/4 each time, so the geometric sequence would be
an= 32(1/4)^(n-1)
an in the formula is what ever term in the sequence.
32 or 1/2 is the a which is the first term in the sequence.
4 or 1/4 is the r in the sequence because it is the common ratio so what the equation was multiplied by to get the next term.
(n-1) is because when you are using this equation to solve for whatever term (an) you must subtract the first number in the sequence to get an accurate number
an you can input whatever number when trying to solve.
Answer:
0.3333 = 33.33% probability that this red ball is from box A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: Red ball
Event B: From box A.
Probability of a red ball:
3/10 = 0.3 of 1/2 = 0.5(box A)
6/10 = 0.6 of 1/2 = 0.5(box B). So
Probability of a red ball from box A:
0.3 of 0.5, so:
What is the probability that this red ball is from box A?
0.3333 = 33.33% probability that this red ball is from box A.
Answer:
102.5, 103.5
Step-by-step explanation:
a+a+1=206
2a+1=206
2a=205
a=102.5
103.5
I think there is a bug here. They can't be whole numbers.
Carrie could have 3 vases filled with 100 marbles, and 4 vases filled with 10 marbles. Hope I helped!
