Answer:
7 / 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the sample space attached,
Required outcome = multiple of 5 from the sun of two rolled dice = 7
Total possible outcomes =(number of faces)² = 6² = 36
Therefore, the probability of obtaining a sum which is a multiple of 5 is :
P(sum which is a multiple of 5) :
Required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 7 / 36
Answer:
a₈ = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The given arithmetic sequence is: 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, . . .
The recursive formula for the sequence is:
Here, represents the
of the sequence.
And, represents the
of the sequence.
'+5' denotes that '5' is added to the term to get the
term. In other words, the difference between two consecutive numbers in the sequence is 5.
Now, we are asked to find a₈ i.e., n =8.
Substituting in the recursive formula we get: a₈ = a₍₈₋ ₁₎ + 5 = a₇ + 5.
So, to determine a₈ we need to know a₇. From the sequence we see that a₅ = 23.
⇒ a₆ = 23 + 5 = 28.
⇒ a₇ = 28 + 5 = 32.
⇒ a₈ = 32 + 5 = 37.
Therefore, the term of the sequence is 37.
