the correct question in the attached figure
<span>
we know that

</span>the probability
that a witness picks a particular person by chance-----> P=1/5

the probability
that all 7 witnesses would pick the same person-----> P=1/5^7=0.0000128

the answer is the option B 0.0000128

<span>There are a variety of problems in which the number of witnesses change, for example
</span><span>....find the probability that all 9 witnesses would pick the same person

</span>in this case, the probability would be-------> P=1/5^9=0.000000512<span>

Patient A receives 3 times the amount of a certain medication as Patient B. The two doses add to 200 milligrams. What amount of
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Patient A - 150 mg

Patient B - 50 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Since patient A gets three times more, 50 times 3 is 150. 150 plus 50 is 200, therefore, patient A gets 150 mg and patient B gets 50 mg. I hope this helps :)

Evaluate the series shown. Then write an equivalent series using summation notation such that the lower index starts at 0.
Vitek1552 [10]
The summation indicates the sum from n = 1 to n = 3 of the expression 2(n+5).

2 (n+5) = 2n + 10

2n + 10 denotes an Arithmetic Series, with a common difference of two and first term as 12.

For n =1, it equals 12
For n = 2, it equals 14
For n = 3, it equals 16

So the sum from n=1 to n=3 will be 12 + 14 + 16 = 42

Sum of an Arithmetic Series can also be written as:

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}(2a_{1} +(n-1)d)

Using the value of a₁ and d, we can simplify the expression as:

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2} (24+2(n-1)) \\  \\ &#10; S_{n} =n (12+(n-1))\\  \\ &#10; S_{n} =n (11+n)

This expression is equivalent to the given expression and will yield the same result.

For n=3, we get the sum as:

S₃ = 3(11+3) = 42
