Answer:

It is not possible to make the investment under the given conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y and z be the amounts invested in bonds, certificates of deposit and mortgages respectively.

<u>1st equation </u>

<em>“A bank wishes to invest a $100, 000 trust fund in three sources” </em>

x + y + z = 100,000

<u>2nd equation </u>

<em>“The bank wishes to realize an $8, 000, annual income from the investment and bonds paying 8%; certificates of deposit paying 7%; and first mortgages paying 10%” </em>

<em> </em>

0.8x + 0.7y + 0.1z = 8,000

3rd equation

<em>“the total amount invested in bonds and certificates of deposit must be triple the amount invested in mortgages” </em>

<em> </em>

x+y = 3z

and we have a <em>linear system of 3 equations with 3 unknowns </em>

    x +      y +      z = 100,000

0.8x + 0.7y + 0.1z = 8,000

    x +      y      -3z = 0

This system has a unique solution given by

x = -470,000  

y = 545,000

z = 25,000

Since x is negative, we deduct there is no way to do such an investment.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a deck of cards is shuffled.

we know in a deck there are 52 cards, 13 cards of each variety spade, clubs hearts and dice.  Red are 26 and black are 26.  kings, will be 4.

(a) the top card is the king of spades and the bottom card is the queen of spades?

(iii) 1/52 × 1/52

Top has 1/52 and bottom has 1/52 and these are independent.

(b) the top card is the king of spades and the bottom card is the king of spades?

(viii) None of the above

Because it is impossible.

(c) the top card is the king of spades or the bottom card is the king of spades?

(iv) 1/52 + 1/52

This is the sum of probabilities because there is no common event for these two.

(d) the top card is the king of spades or the bottom card is the queen of spades?

(ii) 1/52 + 1/51 (once king of spades is there, then probability is 1/51 for bottom card)

(e) of the top and bottom cards, one is the king of spades and the other is the queen of spades?

(vii) 2/52 × 1/51

Because this is twice of probability d.
