Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first generate the frequency table from the information given:

Hurricane number(X)       Frequency(f)                f(X)

6                                            9                                   54

8                                            13                                  104

12                                           16                                  192

14                                            12                                168

Total                                     ∑(f) = 50                          ∑f(x) =518

In order to determine the last frequency (the remaining years), we will add the other frequencies and subtract the answer from 50, which is the total frequency (50 years). This is done as follows:

Let the last frequency be f

9 + 3 + 16 + f = 50

38 + f = 50

f = 50 - 38 = 12

Now, calculating mean:

\bar {X} = \frac{\sum f(x)}{\sum(f)} \\\\\bar {X} = \frac{518}{50} \\\\\bar {X} = 10.36

Therefore mean number of hurricanes = 10.4 (to one decimal place)

Chaney deposits $1435.73 into a savings account that pays a simple annual interest rate of 1.32%. How much interest will she ear
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Interest Chaney earns after 3 years is  $56.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount deposited = $1435.73

Simple annual interest rate = 1.32% = 1.32/ 100 = 0.0132

To find: Interest after 3 years

We know that the formula to calculate the interest amount is

Simple interest (S.I.) = \frac{Prt}{100}

where,

P is the initial amount deposited

r is the rate of simple interest in percentage

t is the time in years for which interest is to be calculated

Substituting the known values in the formula, we get

S.I = \frac{1435.73 x 1.32 x 3}{100}

    = 56.85

Hence the interest Chaney earns after 3 years is  $56.85
