Answer:

  a9 = -8 +9(9 -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence has a common difference of 1-(-8) = 10-1 = 9, and a first term of -8. The formula for the n-th term of such an arithmetic sequence is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1) . . . . . first term a1, common difference d

For the parameter of this sequence, a1=-8 and d=9, the n-th term is ...

  an = -8 +9(n -1) . . . . formula for the n-th term

__

Then the formula for the 9th term is ...

  a9 = -8 +9(9 -1)

A card is selected randomly from a jar that contains 15 cards, numbered from 25 to 39. What is the probability that the card sel
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let random variable <em>X</em> be defined as the number on the selected card.

There are <em>N</em> = 15 total cards.

The number on the cards are as follows:

S = {25, 26, 27,..., 38, 39}

The probability of an event, <em>E</em> is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{N}

In this case we need to compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34.

The favorable outcomes are:

<em>s</em> = {25, 36, 37, 38, 39}

<em>n</em> (X < 34) = 5

Compute the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 as follows:

P(X

                  =\frac{5}{15}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}\\\\=0.3333

Thus, the probability that the card selected bears a number less than 34 is 0.3333.
