A6 = -8
a15= -62
There are (15 - 6) terms in between, therefore 9 terms in between.
-8 to -62 ... there is a difference of 54
54 ÷ 9 = 6
Therefore it gets -6 each term.
a6 = -8, a7= -14, a8 = -20 ......
The probability that Boris will win the contest is:
P = 0.286
<h3>
How to get the probability?</h3>
For some given odds a:b, the probability is just computed as the quotient between a and b, which gives:
P = a/b
In this case, the odds are 2:7, so the probability that Boris will win the contest is:
P = 2/7 = 0.286
Written in percentage form, we get:
P = 28.6%
