<span><span>A = P(1-r)^t
</span><span>
A = 3900(1-0.08)^10

A = 3900(0.92)^10 </span></span><span><span>

A = 3900(0.434388454)

A = 1694.11

1694 square km</span></span>

Find the length of “b”, to the<br> nearest tenth, using the<br> Pythagorean Theorem.

Tresset [83]

Answer: b= 11.2

10^2 + b^2 = 15^2

100 + b^2 = 225

b^2 = 125

b= $\sqrt{125}$

b= 11.2

a cooler contains 50 bottles; 30 bottles of water, which 8 are lemon flavored and 20 bottles of tea, of which 5 are lemon flavor

xenn [34]

Answer:

The required probability is $\dfrac{13}{50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of bottles = 50

Total number of water bottles = 30

Total number of lemon flavored water bottles = 8

Total number of tea bottles = 20

Total number of lemon flavored tea bottles = 5

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored water bottle = Probability of selecting a water bottle </em> $\times$ <em> Probability of selecting a lemon bottle out of water bottles.</em>

<em></em>

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored tea bottle = Probability of selecting a tea bottle </em> $\times$ <em> Probability of selecting a lemon bottle out of tea bottles.</em>

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

$P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}$

Probability of selecting a water bottle:

$\dfrac{30}{50} = \dfrac{3}{5}$

Probability of selecting a lemon flavored bottle from water bottle:

$\dfrac{8}{30}$

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored water bottle = P(A)</em>

<em></em> $\dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{8}{30} = \dfrac{4}{25}$ <em></em>

<em></em>

Probability of selecting a tea bottle:

$\dfrac{20}{50} = \dfrac{2}{5}$

Probability of selecting a lemon flavored bottle from tea bottle:

$\dfrac{5}{20} = \dfrac{1}{4}$

<em>Probability of selecting a lemon flavored tea bottle = P(B)</em>

<em></em> $\dfrac{2}{5} \times \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{10}$ <em></em>

<em></em>

<em>The required probability is:</em>

<em>P(A) + P(B):</em>

<em></em> $\dfrac{4}{25} + \dfrac{1}{10}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{8+5}{50}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{13}{50}$ <em></em>
