Answer:

2 / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula :

an= 2(-1.2)^n

At n = 1

a(1) = 2(-1.2)^1 = 2(-1.2) = - 2.4

At n = 2

a(2) = 2(-1.2)^2 = 2(-1.2)^2 ; 2 * 1.44 = 2.88

At n = 3

a(3) = 2(-1.2)^3 = 2(−1.728) ; 2 * - 1.728 = - 3.456

Number of negative numbers from first three term = 2

P(choosing a negative term) =

Number of negative numbers from first three term / total number of terms

= 2/3

What is 5/6 divided by 1/7?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

5\frac{5}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the <u>reciprocal </u>of the second fraction. (Seven over one)

\frac{5*7}{6*1} =\frac{35}{6}

Now, we convert the fraction into a mixed fraction.

\frac{35}{6}=5\frac{5}{6}

<em>The quotient of 5/6 and 1/7 is 5 5/6</em>
