6 0

Answer: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A dice has numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. This means there are 6 outcomes that a person can get once it's rolled.

Since the numbers are from 1-6, the even numbers are 2, 4 and 6. This implies that there are 3 even numbers out of possible 6 numbers.

Therefore, the theoretical probabiltity of rolling an even number on a dice will be:

= Number of even numbers / Total numbers

= 3/6.

= 1/2

= 0.5

Need to get the values of each trig function using half angle formulas within the constraint

Marizza181 [45]

$\bf cot(u)=4\qquad \pi \ \textless \ u\ \textless \ \frac{3\pi }{2}\implies cot=\cfrac{-4}{-1}\cfrac{\leftarrow adjacent}{\leftarrow opposite}
\\\\\\
hypotenuse\implies \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-1)^2}\implies \sqrt{17}
\\\\\\
cos(\theta )=\cfrac{-4}{\sqrt{17}}\implies \cfrac{-4\sqrt{17}}{17}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
$

$\bf sin\left( \frac{u}{2} \right)=\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{1+\frac{4\sqrt{17}}{17}}{2}}\implies \pm\sqrt{\cfrac{\frac{17+4\sqrt{17}}{17}}{2}}\implies \boxed{\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{17+4\sqrt{17}}{34}}}
\\\\\\
cos\left( \frac{u}{2} \right)=\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{1-\frac{4\sqrt{17}}{17}}{2}}\implies \pm\sqrt{\cfrac{\frac{17-4\sqrt{17}}{17}}{2}}\implies \boxed{\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{17-4\sqrt{17}}{34}}}$

$\bf tan\left( \frac{u}{2} \right)=\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{\frac{17+4\sqrt{17}}{34}}{\frac{17-4\sqrt{17}}{34}}}\implies \boxed{\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{17+4\sqrt{17}}{17-4\sqrt{17}}}}$

Determine if each sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither.

Len [333]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

geometric
arithmetic
neither (Fibonacci sequence)

Step-by-step explanation:

If ratios are the same, it is geometric:

8/4 = 16/8 = ... = 2

If differences are the same, it is arithmetic:

-4-(-8) = 0 -(-4) = ... = 4

If neither is the case, it is neither:

3-2 ≠ 5 -3

3/2 ≠ 5/3

In this last sequence we see that differences equal the previous term. This is characteristic of the Fibonacci sequence, which sees wide use in Nature, and has a relationship to the Golden Ratio. (The ratios of successive terms approach the golden ratio (1+√5)/2 ≈ 1.618.)
