Mike has a net spendable income of $1,400. He decides to set up a budget before looking for an apartment or a car. He sets up hi

s budget and finds that he has lots of money left over. He puts the extra money into entertainment.
Housing $420
Food $168
Transportation $210
Insurances $42
Debts $70
Entertainment $224
Clothing $70
Savings $70
Medical $56
Miscellaneous $70
Why might this budget be a problem?


A.) Mike will spend more money than he is earning.

B.) Mike does not have enough money budgeted for food or medical expenses.

C.) Mike is using the minimum recommended percentages for food, housing, and transportation. The costs are likely to exceed the expenses in each category.

D.) Mike has not budgeted all of his money. He will find that he has extra money at the end of the month, which will end up being wasted.

Answer:

Option C is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike has a net spendable income of $1,400.

His total budget is :

Housing =$420

Food=$168

Transportation=$210

Insurances=$42

Debts=$70

Entertainment=$224

Clothing=$70

Savings=$70

Medical=$56

Miscellaneous=$70

420+168+210+42+70+224+70+70+56+70=1400

So, out of all the given options, the correct one seems to be :

Mike is using the minimum recommended percentages for food, housing, and transportation. The costs are likely to exceed the expenses in each category.

Therefore, we can say that Mike should budget properly as he is spending more on entertainment, rather than more important categories.

If PQ=8 and Q lies at -13 where could P be located?
choli [55]

Answer:

In the given figure the point on segment PQ is twice as from P as from Q is. What is the point? Ans is (2,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

There is really no need to use any quadratics or roots.

( Consider the same problem on the plain number line first.  )

How do you find the number between 2 and 5 which is twice as far from 2 as from 5?

You take their difference, which is 3. Now splitting this distance by ratio 2:1 means the first distance is two thirds, the second is one third, so we get

4=2+23(5−2)

It works completely the same with geometric points (using vector operations), just linear interpolation: Call the result R, then

R=P+23(Q−P)

so in your case we get

R=(0,−1)+23(3,3)=(2,1)

Why does this work for 2D-distances as well, even if there seem to be roots involved? Because vector length behaves linearly after all! (meaning |t⋅a⃗ |=t|a⃗ | for any positive scalar t)

Edit: We'll try to divide a distance s into parts a and b such that a is twice as long as b. So it's a=2b and we get

s=a+b=2b+b=3b

⇔b=13s⇒a=23s

Use the rules of exponents to evaluate or simplify. Write without negative exponents. (-243)^3/5=___________?
stepladder [879]
The answer would be -27 but since you aren't using negatives, A trick I use is cross the line change the sign. So it would be 1/27 I believe

If a denotes some​ event, what does upper a overbar ​denote? if ​p(a)equals0.992​, what is the value of ​p(upper a overbar​)?
ELEN [110]

If A denotes some event, what does Ā denote?

If P(A) = 0.992, what is the value of P(Ā)?

Answer :

A denotes some event , Ā denotes the complement of A that is Ā contains all the events that does not occur in A.

Given: P(A) = 0.992

We know total probability =1

P(A) + P(Ā)= 1

P(Ā)= 1 - P(A)

P(Ā)= 1 - 0.992 = 0.008

P(Ā) = 0.008
