Create a sequence with five terms based on the given information. a. A arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a constant
1 answer:
Part a .
A arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a common difference of 5 .
To find the first five therms, since the common difference is 5, so we add 5 to get the fourth term and add 5 to fourth term to get the fifth term .
And for first two terms, we will subtract 5 from 8 to get the second term and subtract 5 from the second term to get the first term. And we will get
Part b:A geometric sequence with a fifth term of 1/3 and constant ratio of 1/3.
TO find the first five terms, since the constant ratio of 1/3, so we multiply 1/3 to third term to get fourth term, and multiply fourth term by 1/3 to get fifth term .
And to get the first two terms, we will divide third term by 1/3, to get the second term and divide the second term by 1/3 to get the first term, that is

Step-by-step explanation:
If I am reading the little table right, You have made 9 shots, and have missed 6 of them. Therefore, in total, you have made shots.
The definition of probability is the number of events of a desired outcome divided by the total number of outcomes. Since you wish to make a shot for part a, the number of desired outcomes thus far is 9, out of 15 total shots. Thus,
making a shot
Since making a shot and not making a shot are mutually exclusive events, and the only two events that could occur when shooting a basket, the probability of not making a shot and the probability of making a shot are all of the possible outcomes, and is thus equal to 1.
