Certainly.
12% is equivalent to .12
So, multiply 17 by .12
17 * .12 = 2.04
12% of 17 is thus 2.04.

Ricardo borrows $1,850 for 10 months at an interest rate of 12.25%. What amount will

jonny [76]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

$2038.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the loan at that point is given by ...

A = P(1 +rt) . . . . . Principal P, rate r, time t (years)

A = $1850(1 + 0.1225·(10/12)) = $2038.85

Ricardo will have paid back $2038.85 at the end of the loan period.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

We assume that the loan accrues simple interest and that the amount due is the sum of principal and interest at the end of the loan period.

The question is not specific as to whether interest compounds, or whether intermediate (monthly) payments are made. There are many possible ways the loan could be repaid, generally involving different amounts for the different terms.

10.3.23

Helga [31]

Answer:

The probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team is $\frac{9}{40} = 0.225$

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: High school student.

Event B: Is on the swin team.

Probability of selecting a high school student:

Of the 1500 students, 200 are on high school. So

$P(A) = \frac{200}{1500}$

Probability of selecting a high school student who swims:

Of the 1500 students, 45 are high school students who swim. So

$P(A \cap B) = \frac{45}{1500}$

What is the probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team?

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{\frac{45}{1500}}{\frac{200}{1500}} = \frac{45}{200} = \frac{9}{40} = 0.225$

The probability that a high school member selected at random is on the swim team is $\frac{9}{40} = 0.225$

X-(-6)=-2 EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

If your asking for the Value of X the answer would be (-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

when your subtracting a negative, it's the same as addition, and if the equation should be equal to 2, then the answer would be (-8), because

(-8) - (-6) = -2.

The function f(x) = { x + 1 is used to complete this Which statements are true of the given function? Check all that apply. tabl

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Options (1) and (5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression that defines the function is,

$f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{3}{2}$

Option 1

$f(-\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{2}(-\frac{1}{2})+\frac{3}{2}$

$=-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{2}$

$=-\frac{1}{4}+1+\frac{1}{2}$

$=1+\frac{1}{4}$

$=1\frac{1}{4}$

So, $f(-\frac{1}{2} )=-2$ is false.

Option 2

f(0) = $\frac{1}{2}(0)+\frac{3}{2}$

= $\frac{3}{2}$

True.

Option 3

f(1) = $\frac{1}{2}(1)+\frac{3}{2}$

= $\frac{3+1}{2}$

= 2

Therefore, f(1) = -1 is false.

Option 4

$f(2)=\frac{1}{2}(2)+\frac{3}{2}$

$=1+1+\frac{1}{2}$

$=2\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, f(2) = 1 is false.

Option 5

f(4) $=\frac{1}{2}(4)+\frac{3}{2}$

$=2+\frac{3}{2}$

$=\frac{4+3}{2}$

$=\frac{7}{2}$

True.

Options (1) and (5) are the correct options.
