Answer:

19 m

Step-by-step explanation:

This is Geometric progression with

$\left \{ {{u_1=1,\: u_2 =2} \atop {u_n=2^{n-1}u_1} \right.$

Then the fomular of sum is

$S=u_1\frac{2^n-1}{2-1} =1\times(2^n-1)=2^n-1\\To\: save\: 1 \:million\: then \; our \:sum \: will \: be\: 1000000\\Hence,\\2^n-1=1000000\\2^n=1000001\\n=log_{2}{1000001}\approx19,9\\Thus, it\:would \;be \:19 \:months \:before\: we\: saved \:1000000 \:pounds$

Find the equation,in standard form, of the line passing through the point (2,-3) and (4,2)

VLD [36.1K]

The standard form:

$Ax+By=C$

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (2, -3) and (4, 2). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{2-(-3)}{4-2}=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$y-(-3)=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)$

$y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)$ <em>use distributive property</em>

$y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}x-5$ <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>

$2y+6=5x-10$ <em>subtract 6 from both sides</em>

$2y=5x-16$ <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

$-5x+2y=-16$ <em>change the signs</em>

$\boxed{5x-2y=16}$

An insurance company charges Ted E. Bear $1400 per year for insurance on his home. The company has predicted that there is a 10%

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount Ted pays per year for insurance on his home = $1,400

The value of the insurance policy = $5000

The chance that Ted will make a claim on the policy = 10%

The expected value is given as follows

Incidence Probability(p) Value(v) v × p

A claim is made 0.1 $5,000 - $1,400 = -$3,600 -$360

No claim 0.9 $1,400 $1260

Expected value is $1,260 - $360 = $900

The value the insurance company can be expected to make on average on the policy is $900
