Answer:

In the given table the purchasing power of first year is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y=20000(0.95)^x

In first year, the purchasing power is

y=20000(0.95)^{1}=19000

The purchasing power of first year is incorrect.

In second year, the purchasing power is

y=20000(0.95)^{2}=18050

In third year, the purchasing power is

y=20000(0.95)^{3}=17147.5\approx 17148

In fourth year, the purchasing power is

y=20000(0.95)^{4}=16290.125\approx 16290

Therefore in the given table the purchasing power of 2, 3, and 4 years are correct.

We simply substitute the values of x and check if the values of y match.
y(1) = 19,000
y(2) = 18,050
y(3) = 17,148
y(4) = 16,290

As is visible from the table, the first value quoted is incorrect.

sasho [114]

Answer:

0.336 or 33.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

It follows from the question that the probability of a complaint is 35% = 35/100 = 0.35. Let's call this probability, p.

The probability of no complaint is mutually exclusive of p since both are complements. Let's call this q. Then

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65

The distribution is a binomial distribution.

Events of each call are independent.

The probability of 2 calls with complaint out of 5 is

\binom{5}{2}p^2 \timesq^3=10\times0.35^2\times0.65^3 = 0.336 = 33.6\%

Anni [7]
ANSWER

y = 2/3x + 15

Explanation:

Equation used: y - y1 = m( x - x1 )

y - 9 = 2/3 ( x - -9 )

y - 9 = 2/3x + 6 ( distribution )

y - 9 = 2/3x + 6 ( add 9 to 6 )

y = 2/3x + 15
