Answer:

Given 2x,x+10,3x+2 are three consecutive terms in A.P

_______________________

We know that,

Difference of any two consecutive terms in A.P are equal.

_______________________

(x+10)-2x = (3x+2)-(x+10)

=> x+10-2x = 3x+2-x-10

=> 10-x=2x-8

=> -x-2x = -8-10

=> -3x = -18

Divide each term by (-3) , we. get

Therefore,

x = 6

Hope u understood!

A jar contains 4 white and 4 black marbles. We randomly choose 4 marbles. If 2 of them are white and 2 are black, we stop. If no
Airida [17]

Answer:

<em>Find the probability of success in a single trial and then think about the nature of the problem (when do we stop).  </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that in the single trial, we have (8 4) possibilities of choosing our set of balls. If we have chosen two white balls and two black balls, the probability of doing that is simply  

p=(4 2)*(4 2)/(8 4)

This is well know Hyper geometric distribution. Now, define random variable X that marks the number of trials that have been needed to obtain the right combination (two white and two black balls). From the nature of the problem, observe that X has Geometric distribution with parameter p that has been calculated above. Hence  

P(X = n) = (1— p)^n-1 *( p )

Answer:

1.4 × 10^-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The chip is 14  nanometers

14 * .000000001

.000000014

Move the decimal 8 places to the right, because we need 1 number in front of the decimal for scientific notation.  The exponent will be -8 because  we moved it 8 places to the right

1.4 × 10^-8
