Answer:

A $124.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax is 3.5%.

Step 1: Find out what 3.5% of $120 is...

First change 3.5% to a decimal

0.035

Now multiply $120 by 0.035

$120(0.035) = $4.20

So sales tax is $4.20

Step 2 : Add the sales tax to the original purchase price to get the final sale price..

$120 + $4.20 = $124.20

The expression 475 * 1.076 ^ t the average annual per capita health care costs, in dollars, in the US as a function of the numbe

Alik [6]

Answer:

$Y(t)= 475 (1.076)^t$

Where Y(t) represent the average annual per capita health care costs

475 represent the initial amount for the average annual per capita health care costs

t represent the number of years since 1970

And 1.076 represent the growth factor given by:

$1+r = 1.076$

And solving for r we got:

$r = 1.076-1 =0.076$

So for this case we can say that the value 1.076 represent the growth factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following model given:

$Y(t)= 475 (1.076)^t$

Where Y(t) represent the average annual per capita health care costs

475 represent the initial amount for the average annual per capita health care costs

t represent the number of years since 1970

And 1.076 represent the growth factor given by:

$1+r = 1.076$

And solving for r we got:

$r = 1.076-1 =0.076$

So for this case we can say that the value 1.076 represent the growth factor.

A card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. Find the probability of drawing a diamond or a spade.

AveGali [126]

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

For a deck of card

Total cards = 52

Total spade = 4

Total diamond = 4

pr(drawing a spade) = number of spade/total cards

pr(drawing a spade) = 4/52 = 1/13

pr(drawing a diamond) = 4/52 = 1/13

Pr(diamond or a spade) = 1/13 + 1/13 = 2/13

At a manufacturing plant where switches are made, it is a known fact that 2% of all switches are defective. If two switches are

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The probability that exactly one switch is good is

$P(x) =0.0392$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a switch is defective is:

$P(D) = \frac{2}{100} =0.02$

The probability that a switch is not defective is

$P(D') = 1-P(D)=0.98$

Therefore, if two switches are selected, the probability that exactly 1 is good is:

$P(1=1)=P (D) P (D ') + P (D') P (D)$

$P(x)=(0.02)(0.98) + (0.98)(0.02)$

$P(x) =0.0392$
