The amount after time t will be given by simple interest formula given by:
A=prt/100
where:
principle,p=$175
rate, r=3.5%
time, t=5 years
thus the rate earned after 5 years will be:
A=(175*3.5/100*5)
A=$30.625

Lucy places five cards that are labeled 1 to 6 face down on the table and mixes them up. What is the likelihood that her friend

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

1/2 or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Within 1 to 6,

Even numbers are 2, 4, 6

While odd numbers are 1, 3, 5

Assuming cards are mixed up properly and the probabilities of drawing a card with any number from 1 to 6 is constant,

Probability of drawing even number cards = number of units of even number cards ÷ total number of units of cards from 1 to 6 aka total number of cards

= 3 / 6

= 1 / 2

Suppose you can somehow choose two people at random who took the SAT in 2014. A reminder that scores were Normally distributed w

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

22.29% probability that both of them scored above a 1520

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 1497, \sigma = 322$

The first step to solve the question is find the probability that a student has of scoring above 1520, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1520.

So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{1520 - 1497}{322}$

$Z = 0.07$

$Z = 0.07$ has a pvalue of 0.5279

1 - 0.5279 = 0.4721

Each students has a 0.4721 probability of scoring above 1520.

What is the probability that both of them scored above a 1520?

Each students has a 0.4721 probability of scoring above 1520. So

$P = 0.4721*0.4721 = 0.2229$

22.29% probability that both of them scored above a 1520

Theorem: The segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. A two-c

natali 33 [55]

Answer: By the slope formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ABC is a triangle (shown below),

In which A≡(6,8), B≡(2,2) and C≡(8,4)

And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Prove: DE║AC and DE = AC/2

Proof:

Since, And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Therefore, By mid point theorem,

coordinate of D are $(\frac{2+6}{2} , \frac{2+8}{2} ) = (\frac{8}{2} , \frac{10}{2} )= (4,5)$

Coordinate of E are $(\frac{2+8}{2} , \frac{2+4}{2} ) = (\frac{10}{2} , \frac{6}{2} )= (5,3)$

By the distance formula,

$DE=\sqrt{(5-4)^2+(3-5)^2}=\sqrt{5}$

$AC=\sqrt{(8-6)^2+(4-8)^2}=2\sqrt{5}$

By the slope formula,

Slope of AC = $\frac{4-8}{8-6} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2$

Slope of DE = $\frac{3-5}{5-4} = \frac{-2}{1} = -2$

Statement Reason

1. The coordinate of D are (4,5) and 1. By the midpoint formula

the coordinate of E are (5,3)

2. The length of DE = √5 2. By the Distance formula

The length AC = 2√5 ⇒ Segment DE

is half the length of segment AC

3. The slope of DE = -2 and the 3. By the slope formula

slope of AC = -2

4. DE║AC 4. Slopes of parallel lines are equal
