Answer:x=4
7.5x=30
Divide by 7.5 on both sides
x+4
There are 6 pockets all together. You checked two of them and it wasn't
there. So you can forget about those 2, and now there are 4 pockets left.
The total number of ways for your next try is 4.
The number that will be successful is 1.
The probability of success on the next one is <em>1/4 = 25% .</em>
=======================================================
Another method of solution, somewhat more complex:
Total number of pockets = 6.
Amount of money missing = $10
First partial sum, i.e. sum of numbers
in the first part of the problem = 6 + 10 = 16.
Total number of pockets = 6
Current value of cargo pants on a fashion scale from 1 to 10 = -2.
Second partial sum = 6 - 2 = 4.
Probability = (second partial sum) / (first partial sum) = 4/16 = <em>25% </em>.
Answer:
a.) -20p - 2
Step-by-step explanation:

(We know this from a=1/9 and r=3)
Simplifying this, we get:

Since we're finding the first term that exceeds 1000, let's set it equal to 1000.

Multiplying both sides by 27


n≈9.2
We have to round n up, since if n=9, the value would be <1000.
Therefore n=10. Substituting n=10,

=2187
Therefore the first term that exceeds 1000 is 2187, and it is the 10th term
Answer:
each time the numbers are being multiplied by 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1 × 10 = 10
10 × 10 = 100
100 × 10 = 1,000
hope this helps :)
