Answer:

  • 18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let the capacity of tank is x</u>

  • 1/5x + 9 = 7/10x
  • 2/10x + 9 = 7/10x
  • 5/10x = 9
  • 1/2x = 9
  • x = 18 gallons

We roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop. The outcome of the experiment is the number
muminat

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

given that we roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop.

the number 4 can appear either in I throw, or II throw or .... indefinitely

So X = the no of throws can be from 1 to infinity

This is a discrete distribution countable.

Sample space= {1,2,.....}

b) Prob ( 4 never appears) = Prob (any other number appears in all throws)

= \frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *...\\=(\frac{5}{6} )^n

where n is the number of throws

As n tends to infinity, this becomes 0 because 5/6 is less than 1.

Hence this probability is approximately 0

Or definitely 4 will appear atleast once.

Answer:

f(n)=-5-3n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the recursive formula of a sequence

f(1)=−8

f(n)=f(n−1)−3

We are to determine an explicit formula for the sequence.

f(2)=f(2-1)-3

=f(1)-3

=-8-3

f(2)=-11

f(3)=f(3-1)-3

=f(2)-3

=-11-3

f(3)=-14

We write the first few terms of the sequence.

-8, -11, -14, ...

This is an arithmetic sequence where the:

First term, a= -8

Common difference, d=-11-(-8)=-11+8

d=-3

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is determined using the formula:

T(n)=a+(n-1)d

Substituting the derived values, we have:

T(n)=-8-3(n-1)

=-8-3n+3

T(n)=-5-3n

Therefore, the explicit formula for f(n) can be written as:

f(n)=-5-3n

I need help with this please
hoa [83]

Answer:

z = 113

y = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

j || n and line a is their transversal. (given)

Therefore,

z° = 180° - 67° (exterior angles on the same side of transversal)

z°= 113°

z = 113

(5y - 88)° = 67° (exterior alternate angles)

5y - 88 = 67

5y = 67 + 88

5y = 155

y = 155/5

y = 31
