Answer:

A. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

P(AD or F)  = probability of a person having an advanced degree + probability

                     of a person being female

                   = (20% of 300 + 40% of 100)/400 + 100/400

                   = (60+40)/400  + 100/400

                   =  1/2

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Sandwich sells for  $4.76  .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

It costs $2.80 to make a sandwich at the local deli shop.

To make a profit, the deli sells it at a price that is 170% of the cost.

170% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{170}{100}

= 1.7

Thus

Sandwich selling cost = 1.7 × Cost of making

Put all the values in the above

Sandwich selling cost = 1.7 × $ 2.80

                                    = $4.76

Therefore the Sandwich sells for  $4.76  .

Give an equation of a line that is parallel to −3x + 7y =4. Explain why your line is parallel to the given line and how you arri
koban [17]

Answer:

  3x -7y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Changing the constant in a linear equation like this only changes the y-intercept. It has no effect on the slope of the line. So, we can change the constant from 4 to 0 and we will have a line with the same slope, parallel to the original, but with a different y-intercept.

The "standard form" of the equation of a line has the leading coefficient positive. We can make that be the case by using the multiplication property of equality, multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

Parallel line:

  -3x +7y = 0

In standard form:

  3x -7y = 0

If the simple interest on $5,000 for 4 years is $1,600, then what is the interest rate?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

0.08, or 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate formula is i = p*r*t, where p is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time in years.

We want to calculate r when i, p and t are known.

                                                           i

Solving i = p*r*t for r, we get r = ------------

                                                       p*t

The interest rate in this case is

        $1600

r = ---------------- = 0.08, or 8%

      $5000*4
