The answer is 81. You just have to do the division in the traditional way.
The answer is
Thirty residents who live within a 2 mile radius of natashas school.
Answer:
0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
The order in which the students are chosen is not important, so the combinations formula is used to solve this question.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

Desired outcomes:
4 students from a set of 4(Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel). So

Total outcomes:
4 students from a set of 13(number of students in the lottery). So

Probability:

0.0014 = 0.14% probability that Ashley, Bob, Claire, and Daniel will be chosen.
Answer:
See proof below
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to verify that if we substitute
in the equation
the equality is true.
Let's substitute first in the right hand side:

Now we use the distributive laws. Also, note that
(this also works when the power is n-2).



then the sequence solves the recurrence relation.
