Answer: Our required probability is 0.067.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of days in a year = 365

Number of years = 10

So, Number of days in 10 years = 365 × 10 = 3650

Number of unprovoked shark bites in Florida = 246

so, Probability that there will be at least one unprovoked shark bite on a given day is given by

\dfrac{246}{3650}\\\\=0.067

Hence, our required probability is 0.067.

Matthew purchased a washer and dryer for $2,885 using an 18-month deferred payment plan with an interest rate of 26.12%. What is
-Dominant- [34]
For a deferred payment plan no interest is accrued for the deferment period.

If $85 is made each month, then in 18 months, 18 * 85 = $1,530 must have been paid off from the balance owed.

Thus, the remaining balance after the deferment period is $2,885 - $1,530 = $1,355.

If the water level in a lake drops by 14 feet, the water level will still be higher than the 20-foot mark that triggers restrict
maria [59]

Answer:

A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an inequality

If the water level drops by 14 feet

what this mean is that we are subtracting 14 from the original level L

Thus, we have

L-14

Higher than 20 means that we have;

L-14 > 20

L > 20 + 14

L > 34

Suppose that a tea company estimates that its monthly cost is C(c) = 500x² + 100x and its monthly revenue is R(2) = -0.6x3 + 700
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

p(x) = 0.6x³ - 200x² + 500x- 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the cost function and revenue function as:

C(x) = 500x² + 100x

R(x) = -0.6x³ + 700x² – 400x + 300

To get the profit function:

p(x) = C(x) - R(x)

p(x) = 500x² + 100x -(-0.6x³ + 700x² – 400x + 300)

open the parenthesis

p(x) = 500x² + 100x + 0.6x³ - 700x² + 400x - 300

p(x) = + 0.6x³+500x² - 700x² + 100x+ 400x- 300

p(x) = 0.6x³ - 200x² + 500x- 300

Hence the profit function is expressed as p(x) = 0.6x³ - 200x² + 500x- 300
