A random two digit number (10-99) is drawn. Find P(odd number)

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

P(odd number) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 90 members in the set (10, 11, 12, .. , 97, 98, 99)

When we have an even number of consecutive numbers, the number of even numbers equals the number of odd numbers. This means that half of the numbers in this set are even and half of them are odd.

So the probability of P(odd number) = 0.5

Dont really understand how to do this

bija089 [108]

Answers:

$t_{10} = -22 \ \text{ and } S_{10} = -85$

========================================================

Explanation:

$t_1 = \text{first term} = 5\\t_2 = \text{first term}-3 = t_1 - 3 = 5-3 = 2$

Note we subtract 3 off the previous term (t1) to get the next term (t2). Each new successive term is found this way

$t_3 = t_2 - 3 = 2-3 = -1\\t_4 = t_3 - 3 = -1-3 = -4$

and so on. This process may take a while to reach $t_{10}$

There's a shortcut. The nth term of any arithmetic sequence is

$t_n = t_1+d(n-1)$

We plug in $t_1 = 5 \text{ and } d = -3$ and simplify

$t_n = t_1+d(n-1)\\t_n = 5+(-3)(n-1)\\t_n = 5-3n+3\\t_n = -3n+8$

Then we can plug in various positive whole numbers for n to find the corresponding $t_n$ value. For example, plug in n = 2

$t_n = -3n+8\\t_2 = -3*2+8\\t_2 = -6+8\\t_2 = 2$

which matches with the second term we found earlier. And,

$tn = -3n+8\\t_{10} = -3*10+8\\t_{10} = -30+8\\t_{10} = \boldsymbol{-22} \ \textbf{ is the tenth term}$

---------------------

The notation $S_{10}$ refers to the sum of the first ten terms $t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_9, t_{10}$

We could use either the long way or the shortcut above to find all $t_1$ through $t_{10}$ . Then add those values up. Or we can take this shortcut below.

$Sn = \text{sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence}\\S_n = (n/2)*(t_1+t_n)\\S_{10} = (10/2)*(t_1+t_{10})\\S_{10} = (10/2)*(5-22)\\S_{10} = 5*(-17)\\\boldsymbol{S_{10} = -85}$

The sum of the first ten terms is -85

-----------------------

As a check for $S_{10}$ , here are the first ten terms:

t1 = 5
t2 = 2
t3 = -1
t4 = -4
t5 = -7
t6 = -10
t7 = -13
t8 = -16
t9 = -19
t10 = -22

Then adding said terms gets us...

5 + 2 + (-1) + (-4) + (-7) + (-10) + (-13) + (-16) + (-19) + (-22) = -85

This confirms that $S_{10} = -85$ is correct.

Jeremy buys 2 sweaters for $18 each. He can use only one of the following coupons:

katen-ka-za [31]

Jeremy should use coupon 2 because when you multiply both the sweaters (36) by .25 you get 9, and then you subtract 36 by 9 which is 27.

But when you use coupon 1 you multiply 18 by .40 which is 7.20 where you subtract 18 by 7.20 which is 10.80. You then add 10.80 with 18 which is 28.80.

I don't even know what the question is but I found the same problem and this was the answer
