So lets remember the formula for interest first.
#lightbulb
here it is <span>A = P(1 + rt)
all we really have to do is plug in our rates, principles, and time into equation.
P = $800
t = 2 years
r = 6.5% or as a decimal 0.065
now lets look at our new equation that finally has numbers in it

A = 800[1 +(0.065)(2)] first lets take care of the 0.065 and 2 by multiplying them together. thus our new equation.
A = 800(1+ 0.13) then we add the 1 to the 0.13 and get 1.13
800(1.13) from here we just multiply and that equals 904
since we are looking for what is earned we take 904 and subtract 800 to get that answer. Here is the math.

904 - 800 = 104
he made 104 dollars in 2 years!
hope this is right.
have a good one:)

merry christmas:D

Luke has 48 books.He puts 7 books in a box.How many boxes can he fill?explain how you interpreted the remainder

Alex17521 [72]

48 books divided by 7 books per box. So since 7 can go into 48 6 times to make 42, the remainder is 6 books are left out. 6 boxes are filled. I interpreted the remainder by subtracting 42 from 48. And that's all I did. :)

I hope you like this answer and have a good night! :D

On Texas Avenue between University Drive and George Bush Drive, accidents occur according to a Poisson process at a rate of thre

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

(a) The probability is 0.6514

(b) The probability is 0.7769

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of accidents occur according to a poisson process, the probability that x accidents occurs on a given day is:

$P(x)=\frac{e^{-at}*(at)^{x} }{x!}$

Where a is the mean number of accidents per day and t is the number of days.

So, for part (a), a is equal to 3/7 and t is equal to 1 day, because there is a rate of 3 accidents every 7 days.

Then, the probability that a given day has no accidents is calculated as:

$P(x)=\frac{e^{-3/7}*(3/7)^{x}}{x!}$

$P(0)=\frac{e^{-3/7}*(3/7)^{0}}{0!}=0.6514$

On the other hand the probability that February has at least one accident with a personal injury is calculated as:

P(x≥1)=1 - P(0)

Where P(0) is calculated as:

$P(x)=\frac{e^{-at}*(at)^{x} }{x!}$

Where a is equivalent to (3/7)(1/8) because that is the mean number of accidents with personal injury per day, and t is equal to 28 because 4 weeks has 28 days, so:

$P(x)=\frac{e^{-(3/7)(1/8)(28)}*((3/7)(1/8)(28))^{x}}{x!}$
