Answer:

Suppose you have a fair coin: this means it has a 50% chance of landing heads up and a 50% chance of landing tails up. Suppose you flip it three times and these flips are independent. What is the probability that it lands heads up, then tails up, then heads up? So the answer is 1/8, or 12.5%.

14 The straight line, L, has the equation y = 5 - 2x

diamong [38]

Answer:

When it crosses y-axis it means that x coordinate must be 0 so let substitute 0 to x, y=5-2*0

So coordinates are [0,5]

How can you tell there is no solution of a system of equations by looking at the equations or the graph? Explain.

sashaice [31]

Each shows two lines that make up a system of equations. If the graphs of the equations intersect, then there is one solution that is true for both equations. If the graphs of the equations do not intersect (for example, if they are parallel), then there are no solutions that are true for both equations.

Calculate, to four decimal places, the first ten terms of the sequence. an = 1 +(−4/9)^n

Lemur [1.5K]

The first ten terms of the sequence $a_n=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^n$ is<em> 0.5556, 1.1975, 0.9122, 1.039, 0.9827, 1.0077, 0.9966, 1.0015, 0.9993 and 1.0003</em>

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Given that:

$a_n=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^n\\\\When\ n=1:a_1=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^1=0.5556\\\\When\ n=2:a_2=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^2=1.1975\\\\When\ n=3:a_3=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^3=0.9122\\\\When\ n=4:a_4=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^4=1.039\\\\When\ n=5:a_5=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^5=0.9827\\\\When\ n=6:a_6=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^6=1.0077\\\\When\ n=7:a_7=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^7=0.9966\\\\When\ n=8:a_8=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^8=1.0015\\\\When\ n=9:a_9=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^9=0.9993\\\\$

$When\ n=10:a_{10}=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^{10}=1.0003\\$

The first ten terms of the sequence $a_n=1 + (-\frac{4}{9} )^n$ is<em> 0.5556, 1.1975, 0.9122, 1.039, 0.9827, 1.0077, 0.9966, 1.0015, 0.9993 and 1.0003</em>
