Answer: P = 1/12 = 0.083

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the 12 girls, there will be only one that is the lead-off batter.

we can assume that this is the first being selected at random, then the probability that you will be the lead-off batter, is equal to the quotient between 1 (the outcome where you are selected) and 12 (the total number of outcomes)

Then the probability is:

P = 1/12 = 0.083

The fact that there will be an arrange of only 9 girls does not affect the probability of you getting the position of the lead-off batter.

Which of the following choices is the explicit formula for the following geometric sequence?
jonny [76]
Common ratio (r) can be found by dividing the second term by the first term.
0.02 / -0.1 = -0.2

an = a1 * r ^ (n - 1)
a1 = first term = -0.1
r = common ratio = -0.2

an = -0.1(-0.2)^(n - 1)...answer is C

-8x+32=4(-2-4x)<br>What does X equal ​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 8x + 32 = 4(- 2 - 4x) ← distribute parenthesis on right side

- 8x + 32 = - 8 - 16x ( add 16x to both sides )

8x + 32 = - 8 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

8x = - 40 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = - 5
