A man receives an annual increase of #30000 and after a period of 10 years service, the man has the salary of #1014. Find his in
Paladinen [302]

I think you intended writing #30 as his pay rise instead of #30000. I solved the problem using #30 as his annual pay rise.

Answer:

The man's initial salary was #714

Step-by-step explanation:

Extracting the key information from the question:

*** A man got a pay raise for 10 years.

*** His current salary is #1,014

*** He gets a pay raise of #30 annually.

*** We are simply required to calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise.

Now, To calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise, let us denote that initial salary that we are currently unaware of by "a".

Since his salary as at today is #1,014 and he has also received this pay rise of #30 for 10 years, we can calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise every year with the following equation:

a + 30(10) = 1014

That is -

Initial salary + [pay rise × number of years] = current salary.

a + 30(10) = 1,014

a + 300 = 1014

a = 1014 - 300

a = #714

Therefore the man's initial salary was #714

Two containers hold several balls. Once a second, one of the balls is chosen at random and switched to the other container. Afte
natka813 [3]

Answer:

(a) 8 balls

(b) 4 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

N \to Number of balls

For a box, the probability that there are N balls in it is:

Pr = 0.5^N

For 2 boxes, it is:

Pr = 2 * 0.5^N

From the question, we have:

\frac{80}{10000} \to Favorable outcome

To solve for N, we have:

2 * 0.5^N = \frac{80}{10000}

2 * 0.5^N = 0.008

Divide both sides by 2

0.5^N = 0.004

Take log of both sides

\log(0.5^N) = \log(0.004)

Apply law of logarithm

N\log(0.5) = \log(0.004)

Make N the subject

N = \frac{\log(0.004)}{\log(0.5)}

N =7.966

Approximate

N = 8

Solving (b): Balls in one of the two boxes.

Here, we assume that each ball will have almost the same number of balls at a given instance;

Hence, we have:

Balls \approx \frac{N}{2}

Balls \approx \frac{8}{2}

Balls \approx 4

<em>4 balls in each box</em>

A day? 6. If 18 pumps can raise 2150 tonnes of water in 50 days, working 8 hours a day, how much water will be raised in 60 days
Butoxors [25]
Given, 18 pumps----2170 tonnes----10*7 hrs.
So, 16 pumps-------2170 tonnes----10*7*18/16 hrs.
And, 16 pumps-------1736 tonnes----10*7*(18/16)*(1736/2170)hrs. = 63 hrs.

So, no. of days req.= 63/9 = 7 days
