Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die.
The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended.
Since Bill starts the game he can win by throwing even number or lose by throwing odd number
P(win) = 0.5, otherwise, the die will go to George. For Bill to win, both George and Ross should throw an odd number so that Bill again gets the chance with game non ending.
Thus we have Prob of Bill winning =P of Bill winning in I throw +P of Bill winning in his II chance of throw +....infinitely
To get back the dice once he loses probability
= p both throws odd = 
Thus Prob for Bill winning
= 
This is an infinite geometric series with I term 0.5 and common ratio 0.125<1

Answer:
length of the photograph will be 4.2 in. after pressing the button 5 times.
Step-by-step explanation:
By pressing the button, every time size of the photograph gets reduced by 12%.
Therefore, the sequence formed by the reduced sizes of the photo will be a geometric sequence and the formula for the size of the reduced image will be,
L = 
Where l = Actual length of the photograph
L = length of the reduced image
n = Number of times the button has been pressed
For l = 8 in. and n = 5
L = 
= 
= 4.22 in
L ≈ 4.2 in.
Therefore, length of the photograph will be 4.2 in. after pressing the button 5 times.
Answer:
Option A and Option B are not equivalent to the given expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following expression:

Applying properties of exponents and base:

A. Using the exponential property
, we can write:

which is not equal to the given expression.
B. Using the exponential property
, we can write:

which is not equal to the given expression.
C. First we convert the radical form into exponent form. Then by using the property
of exponent, we can write the following:

which is equal to the given expression.
D. First we convert the radical form into exponent form. Then by using the property
of exponent, we can write the following:

which is equal to the given expression.
Option D and Option C are equivalent to the given expression.
