What is the interest on Rr 20,000 if the interest rate is 15%?

Basile [38]

Answer: Rr.3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest is the amount that accrues on a principal that was invested or a cost that was incurred.

It is based on a certain interest rate which in this case is 15%.

The principal is Rr. 20,000.

Interest = Principal * Interest rate

= 20,000 * 15%

= Rr.3,000

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 3x+2y=8 and goes through the point (-5,2)

kifflom [539]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y=\frac{2}{3}(x+5)+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the equation of the line perpendicular to the line 3x+2y=8 and passes through (-5,2).

The given line can be expressed as:

$\displaystyle y=-\frac{3}{2}x+4$

We can see the slope of this line is m1=-3/2.

The slopes of two perpendicular lines, say m1 and m2, meet the condition:

$m_1.m_2=-1$

Solving for m2:

$\displaystyle m_2=-\frac{1}{m_1}$

$\displaystyle m_2=-\frac{1}{-\frac{3}{2}}$

$\displaystyle m_2=\frac{2}{3}$

Now we know the slope of the new line, we use the slope-point form of the line:

$y=m(x-h)+k$

Where m is the slope and (h,k) is the point. Using the provided point (-5,2):

$\boxed{\displaystyle y=\frac{2}{3}(x+5)+2}$

In a statistics class of students, have volunteered for community service in the past. If two students are selected at random fr

Lynna [10]

Answer:

We do not have the total number of students or volunteers.

I will put variables (and then random numbers) and solve it, then you can put the numbers that you need in the equations.

Suppose that the class has Y students, and X of these students have volunteered.

The probability of picking at random a student that has volunteered is equal to the number of students that had volunteered divided by the total amount of students:

p1 = X/Y

now, we must choose another student, but now the volunteers are X - 1, and the total number of students is also Y - 1 (because we already took one student)

now, the probability of selecting other will be:

p2 = (X- 1)/(Y - 1)

Then, the joint probability of both events is equal to the product of both probabilities:

P = p1*p2 = (X/Y)*((X-1)/(Y -1))

Suppose that there are 20 students, and 10 students that have volunteered, then the equations are:

P = (10/20)*(9/19) = 0.237
