Answer:
a(n) = -16b + (n - 1)(3b)
Step-by-step explanation:
First term is -6b.
Common difference is 3b; each new term is equal to the previous one, plus 3b.
Formula for this arithmetic sequence is
a(n) = -16b + (n - 1)(3b)
I think that this is a combination problem. From the given, the 8 students are taken 3 at a time. This can be solved through using the formula of combination which is C(n,r) = n!/(n-r)!r!. In this case, n is 8 while r is 3. Hence, upon substitution of the values, we have
C(8,3) = 8!/(8-3)!3!
C(8,3) = 56
There are 56 3-person teams that can be formed from the 8 students.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A: if both 6 and 3 are red then the probability for a red is 2/6 or 1/3, if only 3 or 6 is a red then it is 1/6
B: spinning a 1 is 1/6 probability
C: spinning an odd number is 3/6 or 1/2 as half of the numbers are odd
D: 0 probability as there are no 9
The answer is 15 to the question
