Each number in the sum is even, so we can remove a factor of 2.

2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + ... + 78 + 80 = 2 (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 39 + 40)

Use whatever technique you used in (a) and (b) to compute the sum

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 39 + 40

With Gauss's method, for instance, we have

S = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 38 + 39 + 40

S = 40 + 39 + 38 + ... + 3 + 2 + 1

2S = (1 + 40) + (2 + 39) + ... + (39 + 2) + (40 + 1) = 40×41

S = 20×21 = 420

Then the sum you want is 2×420 = 840.

The probability that house sales will increase in the next 6 months is estimated to be 0.25. The probability that the interest r

marin [14]

Answer:

0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that house sale will increase = P(A) = 0.25

Probability that interest rate on house loans will go up = P(B) = 0.74

Probability that either house sales will go up or interest rates will go up = P(A or B ) = 0.89

We have to find the probability that neither house sales nor interest rates will increase. This event is the compliment of the event that either house sales will go up or interest rates will go up.

i.e.

Probability that neither house sales nor interest rates will increase = $P(A \cup B)^{c}$
