Mark wants to test his hypothesis that he will have an equally likely chance of drawing 4 straws, given 3 are long and 1 is short. In his experiment, the long straw was drawn 85 times and the short straw 15 times. Which conclusion BEST supports his results? A. The straws were not equally likely because the short straw was drawn more times.

B. A conclusion cannot be determined due to the fact he did not conduct 1000 trials.

C. The 4 straws are equally likely based on these results.

D. The short straw has a less likely chance of being drawn based on these results.

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week
