Answer:

4 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of families = 2400

No. of cars = 4200

Family : Cars

= 2400 : 4200

= 24 : 42

= 6 x 4 : 6 x 7

= 4 : 7

Answer:

4 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

family : car = 2400 : 4200

Simplify by dividing both by 100 ⇒ 24 : 42

Simplify again by dividing both by 6 ⇒ 4 : 7

Cannot be further simplified as 7 is a prime number

The first term in a geometric series is 64 and the common ratio is 0.75. Find the sum of the first 4 terms in the series.
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

195.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider geometric series  S(n) where initial term is a

So S(n)=a+ar^1+...ar^n

Factor out a

S(n)=a(1+r+r^2...+r^n)

Multiply by r

S(n)r=a(r+r^2+r^3...+r^n+r^n+1)

Subtract S(n) from S(n)r

Note that only 1 and rn^1 remain.

S(n)r-S(n)=a(r^n+1  -1)

Factor out S(n)

S(n)(r-1)=a(r^n+1  -1)

The formula now shows S(n)=a(r^n+1  -1)/(r-1)

Now use the formula for the problem

Find the exact value of sin (-270 degrees).
user100 [1]
The exact value of sin (-270) is determined using the calculator in degrees mode. The answer is equal to 1. If the radians mode is used, -270 is equal to -2 pi/3. Hence using the calculator, we can verify that the answer is still 1. The value of -270 matters.

Let event A = You roll an even number on the first cube.Let event B = You roll a 6 on the second cube.Are the events independent
Gnesinka [82]

The events are independent. By definition, it means that knowledge about one event does not help you predict the second, and this is the case: even if you knew that you rolled an even number on the first cube, would you be more or less confident about rolling a six on the second? No.

An example in which two events about rolling cubes are dependent could be something like:

Event A: You roll the first cube

Event B: The second cube returns a higher number than the first one.

In this case, knowledge on event A does change you view on event B (and vice versa): if you know that you rolled a 6 on the first cube you don't want to bet on event B, while if you know that you rolled a 1 on the first cube, you're certain that event B will happen.

Conversely, if you know that event B has happened, you are more likely to think that the first cube rolled a small number, and vice versa.
