Equation solving

2 (x +2) = x - 4
2 x + 4 = x - 4
2 x - x = -4 - 4
x = - 8

Answer = x = -8

2(x + 2) = x - 4

2x + 4 = x - 4

2x - x = -4 - 4

x = -8

Solution: x = -8

Compound interest of $1000 is invested at 10% compounded continuously, the future value s at any time t in years is given by s=1

crimeas [40]

Answer: 6.93 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rate of interest is $r=10\%$

Future value is given by $s=1000e^{0.1t}$

For the investment to double itself, i.e. $s=2000$

$\Rightarrow 2000=1000e^{0.1t}\\\Rightarrow 2=e^{0.1t}\\\\\text{Taking log both sides}\\\\\Rightarrow \ln 2=0.1t\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{\ln 2}{0.1}\\\\\Rightarrow t=6.93\ \text{years}$

It takes around 6.93 years to double the investment.

PART ANSWER:

Hi. I don't know the entire answer but I do know the probability of chosing a blue marble once is 25%.

5 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 12

3/12 or 1/4 = 25% or .25

Sorry I could not fully help.

Scott and Letitia are brother and sister. After dinner, they have to do the dishes, with one washing and the other drying. They

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The probability that Scott will wash is 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the events be: P = Purple and G = Green

$P = 2$

$G = 3$

Required

The probability of Scott washing the dishes

If Scott washes the dishes, then it means he picks two spoons of the same color handle.

So, we have to calculate the probability of picking the same handle. i.e.

$P(Same) = P(G_1\ and\ G_2) + P(P_1\ and\ P_2)$

This gives:

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = P(G_1) * P(G_2)$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{n(G)}{Total} * \frac{n(G)-1}{Total - 1}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{3-1}{5- 1}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{5} * \frac{2}{4}$

$P(G_1\ and\ G_2) = \frac{3}{10}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = P(P_1) * P(P_2)$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{n(P)}{Total} * \frac{n(P)-1}{Total - 1}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{2}{5} * \frac{2-1}{5- 1}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{2}{5} * \frac{1}{4}$

$P(P_1\ and\ P_2) = \frac{1}{10}$

<em>Note that: 1 is subtracted because it is a probability without replacement</em>

So, we have:

$P(Same) = P(G_1\ and\ G_2) + P(P_1\ and\ P_2)$

$P(Same) = \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{3+1}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{4}{10}$

$P(Same) = \frac{2}{5}$
