<h3>Answer:</h3>

2/15

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

There are 8C2 = 28 ways to choose 2 dimes from the 8 dimes in Annie's purse. There are 21C2 = 210 ways to choose 2 coins from the 21 coins in Annie's purse.

Of the 210 ways to choose 2 coins, 28 of the choices will result in 2 dimes being chosen. The probability of choosing 2 dimes is 28/210 = 2/15.

_____

<em>Comment on nCk</em>

The number of ways to choose k objects from n, when order does not matter, is ...

... n!/(k!(n -k)!)

For the computations above, we have ...

... 8C2 = 8·7/(2·1) = 28

... 21C2 = 21·20/(2·1) = 210

Find the sum of the first six terms of a geometric series in which a1 = 4 and r = -3: A. 729 B. -729 C. -728 D. 728 plz help
natta225 [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

S_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^n-1) }{r-1}

Here a₁ = 4 and r = - 3, thus

S_{6} = \frac{4((-3)^6-1)}{-3-1}

    = \frac{4(729-1)}{-4} = - (729 - 1) = - 728 → C
