Answer:

Option C is correct

The value of the car is 0.94 times the value of the car the previous year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

$p(t) = 24,525(0.94)^t$

where,

p(t) represents the value of a new car

t is the number of years.

We have to find the value 0.94 represent in this situation.

For t =0 years.

Initial value of car p(0) is 24,525

For t = 1 years

$p(1) =24,525 \cdot 0.94$

For t = 2 years

$p(2) =24,525 \cdot (0.94)^2$ and so on...

Since;

$\frac{p(2)}{p(1)} = 0.94$

⇒ $p(2) = 0.94 \cdot p(1)$

In general:

$p(t) = 0.94 \cdot p(t-1)$ where, t is the number of years.

⇒the value of the car is 0.94 times the value of the car the previous year.

Two thirds of a number is 3 1/2 more than three eights of a number. find the number

julsineya [31]

2/3x = 3.5 + 3/8x
8 • (2/3x) = 3.5 + 3 • (3/8)

16/24 X = 3.5 + 9/24 X
16/24x - 9/24x = 3.5
7/24 X = 3.5
7x/24 = 3.5
24 • (7x/24) = 3.5 • 24
7x = 84
7x/7 = 84/7
X = 12.

The number is 12.

A random sample is to be selected from a population that has a proportion of successes p=.60. When n=400, what is the probabilit

Nata [24]

Answer:

0.45134

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

p = 0.6

n = 400

Probability that sample. Proportion falls between 0.59 and 0.62

Using Normal approximation :

Mean (m) = n * p = 400 * 0.6 = 240

Standard deviation (s) = sqrt(pq/n)

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

s = sqrt((0.6 * 0.4) / 400) = 0.0244948

P(0.59 < p < 0.62) :

(x - m) / s

P((0.59 - 0.6) / 0.0244948) < p < P((0.62 - 0.6) / 0.0244948)

P(Z < −0.408249) < p < P(Z < 0.8164998)

Using the Z probability calculator :

0.79289 - 0.34155 = 0.45134

Take a factor out of the square root:

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Question A)

$=\sqrt{6}x$

Question B)

$=3a\sqrt{a}$

Question C)

$=5\sqrt{2}b^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

$\sqrt{6x^2}\, \text{ where } x\geq 0$

We can rewrite the expression:

$=\sqrt{6}\cdot \sqrt{x^2}$

The square root and square will cancel each other out. Thus:

$=\sqrt{6}x$

We are given:

$\sqrt{9a^3}$

Rewrite:

$=\sqrt{9}\cdot \sqrt{a^3}$

Note that the square root of 9 is simply 3. We can also factor the second part:

$=3\cdot \sqrt{a^2\cdot a}$

Rewriting:

$=3\cdot\sqrt{a^2}\cdot\sqrt{a}$

Simplify:

$=3a\sqrt{a}$

We are given:

$\sqrt{50b^4}$

Rewrite. Note that 50 = 25(2):

$=\sqrt{25}\cdot \sqrt{2}\cdot \sqrt{b^4}$

Simplify. We can rewrite the factor as:

$=5\cdot \sqrt{2}\cdot \sqrt{(b^2)^2}$

The square and square root will cancel out. Thus:

$=5\sqrt{2}b^2$
