Answer:
18 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for computing accrued amount A for a principal of P at an interest rate of r(in decimal) compounded n times in a year for t years is given by
Note that r is percentage converted to decimal. So 3% = 3/100 = 0.03
We can rearrange the above equation to:
Taking logs on both sides
This gives
In this particular problem, n = 4, , A= 9600, P = 5600, r =0.03, so r/n = 0.03/4 = 0.0075
1 + r/n = 1+0.0075 = 1.0075
4t = log(9600/5600)/log(1.0075) = log(1.714) / log(1.0075) = 0.234 /0.00325 = 72
t = 72/4 = 18 years
True statements:
a) x + y = y + x ⇒ commutative property of addition
b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication
d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition
False statements:
c) x - y = y - x should be: x - y = - y + x
e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)
Answer:
As a decimal its 6.34, If you round up then its 6.35
As a fraction its 400/63
As a mixed number its 6 22/63
For an individual die roll, the probability of rolling 6 is \dfrac{1}{6}

.
Effectively, this problem is asking for P(\text{1st roll is 6}\cap\text{2nd roll is 6})P(1st roll is 6∩2nd roll is 6).
Using the rule of product, this is:
\dfrac{1}{6}\times\dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{1}{36}

Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:
= 
The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.
Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):
= 
Cross multiply:
3*n = 9*8
Simplify:
3n = 72
Divide both sides by 3:
n = 24
The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.
