If we want to select a ball of each colour we have to extract 175+150+75+70+1=471 balls
P=471/500 is the answer
Answer:
parantheses
Step-by-step explanation:
<span> To get an explicit formula, we need to find an expression which gives the n-th term without having to compute earlier terms in the sequence. Looking at the numbers, and from the recursive formula, we see that the sequence is built by subtracting n from the previous term. This is similar to the triangular number sequence 1,3,6,10,15,... which has the explicit formula a_n = n(n+1)/2. In our case we are subtracting n from the previous term, so we multiply by -1/2 instead of 1/2. However, we also need to add a constant term to reproduce the numbers of the sequence. We can write a_1 = -1(2)/2 + c = 8. Therefore, c = 9.
So the explict formula is:
a_n = -n(n+1)/2 + 9</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

Convert percent number as a fraction
Simplify
Divide by 5 both numerator and denominator
I believe you should try to plug in the ordered pair to see if the solutions work.
The ordered pair is (x,y) because x is on the x-axis and y is on the y-axis, therefore in (16,-3) the x=16 and y=-3.
Now substitute, meaning plug in those numbers into the equation.
For x+2y=10 would be 16+2(-3)=10
Now you just need to solve one side and see if it equals the other side.
16+2(-3)
First you use order of operations to solve this. PEMDAS. So you multiply 2(-3) first because of the parenthesis and it being multiplication.
16+(-6) and when you have a positive number adding a negative number it’s going backwards of the number line, basically meaning subtraction in a way. Sorry if this confuses you, if you already know how to do negatives and such nevermind this part.
But 16+(-6)=10
So now you look at both side of the equation, does the left side equal to the right? 10=10, so yes. It is a solution for that equation.
Now for the next equation, 7y=-21
Again, plug in the ordered pair (16,-3) into the equation. Remember that it’s (x,y).
There is no x in this equation so no need to worry about that; you only plug in y for this one.
7(-3) Now you multiply. Whenever you multiply a positive number and a negative number, the answer will always be negative. So 7(-3) is -21.
Now look if the left side is equivalent to the right. Does -21=-21? Yes. The ordered pair is a solution.
(16,-3) is a solution to both equations.
Hope this helps!
