You are selling your product at a three-day event. Each day, there is a 60% chance that you will make money. What is the probability that you will make money on the first two days and lose money on the third day

The required probability = 0.144

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of making money is 60%, then the probability of losing money will be 100-60% = 40%

Now the probability we want to calculate is the probability of making money in the first two days and losing money on the third day.

That would be;

P(making money) * P(making money) * P(losing money)

Kindly recollect;

P(making money) = 60% = 60/100 = 0.6

P(losing money) = 40% = 40/100 = 0.4

The probability we want to calculate is thus;

0.6 * 0.6 * 0.4 = 0.144

(c, 0) i might be wrong so don't put full faith on my answer

geometric series converge the common ratio r has magnitude less than one.

which is equivalent to

for the example we need

|2-x| < 1

-1 < 2-x   and 2-x < 1

x < 3 and x > 1

we can write that

answer: 1 < x < 3

1a. common ratio r=250/25=10 > 1     diverges

1b.   r=50/100=1/2 converges

when these converge they converge to

where a is the first term.

answer: 200

1c. r=-1   so it's not the case that |r| < 1.     diverges

2a. x is the common ratio so we converge when |x|< 1

2b.   r=-10x / -2 = 5x.

we converge when

|5x| < 1

|x| < 1/5

2c.   r=3-2x

-1 < 3-2x and 3-2x < 1

-4 < -2x and 2 < 2x

x < 2 and 1 < x

1 < x < 2

2d. [/tex] r=-48x^3/12 = 4x^3[/tex]

|4x^3| < 1

|x^3| < \frac 1 4

|x| < 4^{-1/3}
