Use the spinner to find the theoretical probability of the event. A spinner is divided into 6 equal sections. Starting from the top and moving clockwise direction, the sections are labeled 1 and shaded blue, 2 and shaded purple, 3 and shaded red, 4 and shaded yellow, 5 and shaded green, and 6 and shaded red. The spinner pointed at 1 near the boundary line of 2. The theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is .

Theoretical probability of spinning an odd number = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability of spinning an odd number is given as

(Number of odd numbers in the sample space)/(total number of numbers in the sample space)

Number of odd numbers in the sample space = 3

Total number of numbers in the sample space = 6

probability of landing on an odd number = (3/6) = 0.5

Theoretical probability of spinning an odd number = 0.5

Hope this Helps!!!

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
