1 answer:

8 0

According to phrase;
a number x less then the quotient of a number m and 6
So, when we write this phrase as an algebraic expression it will be;
quotient of a number m and 6 = m/6
So,
The answer is "m/6 - x".

Solve linear equation y=4-x y=x-4

Hatshy [7]

{ y = 4 - x
y = x - 4

Subsititute y = x - 4

[ ( x - 4 )] = 4 - x ]

isolate x for ( x - 4 ) = 4 - x

x = 4

For y = x - 4

Subsititute x = 4

y = 4 - 4

y = 0

Solution

x = 4 and y = 0

hope this helps!

For all parts of this problem, P(Ā)=0.75 , P(B)=0.3 , and P(B∣A)=0.15

Marianna [84]

12. I assume $\bar A$ denotes the complement of A, so

$P(A) = 1 - P(\bar A) = 0.25$

Then by definition of conditional probability,

$P(B\mid A) = \dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)} = \dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{0.25} = 0.15 \\\\ \implies \boxed{P(A\cap B) = 0.0375}$

13. By inclusion/exclusion,

$P(A\cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\cap B) = 0.25 + 0.3 - 0.0375 \\\\ \implies \boxed{P(A\cup B) = 0.5125}$

1. There were 88 birds in the tree and then b of the birds flew away. Write an expression that shows how many birds are in the t

avanturin [10]

Answer:

1. 88 - b

Since there is 88 birds and a few of them flew away. You know b represents the amount of birds present.

2. 73 + d

Since he is earning d (amount of dollars) so what you have to do is add the amount of dollars, d, to the orginial amount, which is 73.

3. 23 x g

Since Kurt has 23 miles. If he drives 23 miles to a gallon and we have g gallons then we would multiply to find how far he can drive.

The formula S = A((1+r)t+1−1r) S = A 1 + r t + 1 - 1 r models the value of a retirement account, where A = the number of dollars

tatiyna

So this is how you will arrive to the answer:

The following formula models the value of a retirement account,

S = (A [ ( 1 + r ) ^ (t + 1) - 1] / r)

wherein:

A = number of dollars added to the retirement account (each year)

r = annual interest rate

s = value of the retirement account after t years

The question is:

If the interest rate is 11% then how much will the account be worth after 15 years if $2200 is added each year?

Round to the nearest whole number.

Solution:

The said formula contains the term t + 1 instead of the usual "t". Means that the formula applies only in the situation where the money is invested at the beginning of the year instead of the usual practice at the end

Given:

A = 2200
r = 0.11
t = 15

The accumulated amount:
F = A ((1 + r) ^ (t+1) - 1 / r

Substitute:

F = 2200 (1.11 ^ (15 + 1 ) - 1) /0.11
F = 86217.88664

If money is invested at the end of the year, then F = 80476.49, the difference being the investment of an extra 2200 over 15 years.
