Answer:

The  probability that a customer pays late each month is    P(B)  =  0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let     P( A ) be the probability that the customer pays on time and the value is  0.55

Let  P( B )  be the  probability that a customer pays late each month

So

  The probability that a customer pays late or on-time each month  is  P(A u B) and  the value is  0.82

The probability that a customer pays on-time and late each month is  P(A n B) and  the value is  zero ( 0 ) given that it is impossible

   Now The probability that a customer pays late or on-time each month  is mathematically represented as

      P(A u B)  =  P(A) +  P(B)  -   P(A n B)

=>     0.82  =  0.55 + P( B ) -   0

=>    P(B)  =  0.27

2.8 = 2y<br> What does y equal?<br> 1.4<br> 0.5<br> 2.8<br> 0.6
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: 1.4

Step-by-step explanation: First, swap the sides of the equation so that the one with the variable can be in front.

So, its 2y=2.8

To solve this, you simply divide both sides of the equation by 2.

2 divided by 2 is 0. That leaves you with the y by itself. Then, 2.8 divided by 2 is 1.4

So, y=1.4

Maria invested a total of 31,000 in two account, first account earned a rate of 14%. How ever second account suffer a 10% loss i
Maslowich

Answer:the amount of money that Maria invested in the first account is $20000

the amount of money that Maria invested in the second account is $11000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that Maria invested in the first account.

Let y represent the amount of money that Maria invested in the second account.

Maria invested a total of 31,000 in the two account. This means that

x + y = 31000

The first account earned a rate of 14%. This means that the amount earned on the first account is 14/100×x = 0.14x

However, the second account suffered a 10% loss in the same time. This means that the amount lost is

10/100×y = 0.1y

At the end of one year the total amount money gain 1,700. This means that

0.14x - 0.1y = 1700 - - - - --1

Substituting x = 31000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.14(31000 - y)- 0.1y = 1700

4340 - 0.14y - 0.1y = 1700

- 0.14y - 0.1y = 1700 - 4340

-0.24y = -2640

y = 2640/0.24 = 11000

x = 31000 - y = 31000 - 11000

x = 20000
