A) how many ways can 2 integers from 1, be selected
so that their sum is even?
b) how many ways can 2 integers from 1, be selected
so that their sum is odd?

Answer with explanation:

→Number of Integers from 1 to 100

                                            =100(50 Odd +50 Even)

→50 Even =2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,...............................100

→50 Odd=1,3,,5,7,9,..................................99.

→Sum of Two even integers is even.

→Sum of two odd Integers is odd.

→Sum of an Odd and even Integer is Odd.

(a)

Number of ways of Selecting 2 integers from 50 Integers ,so that their sum is even,

   =Selecting 2 Even integers from 50 Even Integers , and Selecting 2 Odd integers from 50 Odd integers ,as Order of arrangement is not Important, ,

=4900 ways

(b)

Number of ways of Selecting 2 integers from 100 Integers ,so that their sum is Odd,

   =Selecting 1 even integer from 50 Integers, and 1 Odd integer from 50 Odd integers, as Order of arrangement is not Important,

=2500 ways

step-by-step explanation:

(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
