Sample space of 7th grade (5 boys + 5 girls)

sample space of 8th grade (5 boys + 3 girls)


P(boy 7th grade) = 5/10 =1/2
P(boy 8th grade) = 5/8
Hence the probability of selecting a boy from 7th AND a boy from 8th is:

(1/2)x(5/8) ==> 5/16 ( It's a conditional probability)

So the ratios are 5:5 and 3:5 so the fractions are 5/10 (1/2) for 7th grade and 5/8 for 8th grade

Mrs. Speas has $138 in her bank account during Week #1. At the end of each week, she deposits $55 into her bank account. What is
nordsb [41]

The first term is 138

The difference is 55

The iterative rule for the amount of money Mr Speas has after n weeks is

55/2 n² + 221/2 n

During the first week she has $138 in his bank account. At the end of each week she deposited $55 into her bank account.

The first term will be 138 .

The common difference is 55 because her bank always increase by $55 dollars every week. The sequence will be 138, 193, 248, 303, 358...…

The difference = 193 - 138 = 55.

The iterative rule for the amount of money Mr Speas has after n weeks can be represented  below

n = number of weeks

a = first term = 138

d = common difference = 55

Using AP formula,

sₙ = n/2(2a + (n - 1)d)

sₙ = n/2 (2(138)+ (n - 1)55)

sₙ = n /2(276 + 55n -55)

sₙ = n /2(221 + 55n)

sₙ = 55/2 n² + 221/2 n

Round 5049 correct to 1 significant figure​
Step2247 [10]

5000

  • Addition (+) and subtraction (-) round by the least number of decimals.
  • Multiplication (* or ×) and division (/ or ÷) round by the least number of significant figures.
  • Logarithm (log, ln) uses the input's number of significant figures as the result's number of decimals.
  • Antilogarithm (n^x.y) uses the power's number of decimals (mantissa) as the result's number of significant figures.
  • Exponentiation (n^x) only rounds by the significant figures in the base.
  • To count trailing zeros, add a decimal point at the end (e.g. 1000.) or use scientific notation (e.g. 1.000 × 10^3 or 1.000e3).
  • Zeros have all their digits counted as significant (e.g. 0 = 1, 0.00 = 3).
  • Rounds when required, after parentheses, and on the final step.
