To be sure of getting a pair of socks of the same color, you must place yourself in the worst position.

When you take out socks without lookong (radomly), the worst scenary is that the first time you take out a sock of a color and in the second fime you take out a sock of different color. Then, the next time (the third time) you necessarily take a sock that match one of the two taken out previously, and so have a pair.

So, the answer is that you must take out three socks to be sure that you have a pair.

Howie wants to get a car loan with 4% simple interest rate. If the car costs $25,000, how much would Howie need to pay back at t
likoan [24]

The amount Howie will pay back at the end of one year is $26000.00

The given parameters are:

P =25000 -- the principal amount

R = 4\% -- the interest rate

T=1 --- the duration

The amount to pay back in this duration is then calculated using:

A = P(1 + RT)

So, we have:

A = 25000(1 + 4\% \times 1)

A = 25000(1 + 4\% )

Express percentage as decimal

A = 25000(1 + 0.04)

A = 25000(1 .04)\\

Multiply

A = 26000

Hence, the amount to pay back is $26000.00

What is the measure of the exterior angle?
valina [46]

the answer is 130 degrees, the 2 interior bottom angles are = to one another so 65 and 65, adding them up makes it 130, then 180 - 130 = 50, meaning the top interior angle is 50 degrees, then 180 - 50 is 130.

A boat costs $19,200 and decreases in value by 12%. How much will devote be worth after 5 years?
saveliy_v [14]

We can start by multiplying $19,200 by 12%. This is 2304. Subtract 19,200 from 2304 and you get 16,896. We could have also received this answer by multiplying by 88%. This would have given us 16,896. So we can use this equation: (((((19,200*88%)88%)88%)88%)88%)=$1011.08.


Hope this helped!
