The Fibonacci sequence was first discovered during a study of rabbits. If newborn rabbits become adults in one month, each pair

of adult rabbits produces one pair each month, and no rabbits die, then how many pairs of rabbits would be produced after thirteen months?

Answer:

There will be 233 pairs of rabbits would be produced after thirteen months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

In the Fibonacci sequence we can find the next term by adding the two numbers before it.

Let us consider that we have 1 pair of newborn rabbits in first month.

Then in the second month they will fully grow.

On the next month 1 more pair of baby rabbits were born.

Next month the baby rabbits were grown and the first pair had two more baby rabbits.

Thus the sequence will look like:

Sequence: 1, 1, 2, 3

It is given that the it follows the Fibonacci sequence. Now use the above rule to generate the Fibonacci sequence.

The required Sequence: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233...

We need to find the number of pairs of rabbits would be produced after thirteen months.

Now from the above sequence we can find the number of rabbits produced after thirteen months.

Hence, there will be 233 pairs of rabbits would be produced after thirteen months.

Bill, George, and Ross, in order, roll a die. The first one to roll an even number wins and the game is ended. What is the proba
hram777 [196]

Answer:0.5714\frac{1}{15}

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 = 0.5(0.5) = 0.25

Thus Prob for Bill winning

= 0.5+0.25(0.5)^2+0.25(0.5)^3(0.25)+...

This is an infinite geometric series with I term 0.5 and common ratio 0.125<1

Sum = \frac{a}{1-r} =\frac{0.5}{1-0.125} =0.5714

Compute the requested value. Choose the correct answer.
Fiesta28 [93]

Original price of the item = $14.95

Price after discount = $13.79

Discount offered = original price - price after discount = 14.95- 13.79 = $1.16

Now let us find the percentage of discount offered.

Percentage discount is given by the formula:

Percentage discount = \frac{MP-SP}{MP}*100

Where MP= Marked price= original price

SP= selling price= price after discount

Percentage discount = \frac{1.16}{14.95}*100

Percentage discount = 7.759 %
