Answer:

A) The annual multiplier was 1.0339; the annual increase was 0.0339 of the value.

B) 3.39% per year

C) $182,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let's let t represent years since 1987. Then we can fill in the numbers and solve for r.

165000 = 100000(1 +r)^15

1.65^(1/15) = 1 +r . . . . . divide by 100,000; take the 15th root

1.03394855265 -1 = r ≈ 0.0339

The value was multiplied by about 1.0339 each year.

B) The value increased by about 3.39% per year.

C) S = $100,000(1.03394855265)^18 ≈ $182,000

A dog trainer has 96 ft of fencing that will be used to create a rectangular work area. Encloses area of 320 ft^2. What will be

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

<em>The dimensions of the area will be 8 ft x 40 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area and Perimeter</u>

The perimeter can be understood as the distance measured around a shape. The area gives us the idea of the space occupied by the shape. Being w and l the width and length of a rectangle, the perimeter and areas can be computed as follows

$A=wl$

$P=2w+2l$

The dog trainer has 96 ft of fencing to cover a $320 ft^2$ rectangular area. This means that

$wl=320$

$2w+2l=96$

A system of equations is formed

$\left\{\begin{matrix}wl=320\\ 2w+2l=96\end{matrix}\right$

We divide the last equation by 2

$w+l=48$

solve for w

$w=48-l$

Replacing in the first equation

$(48-l)l=320$

Operating and arranging

$l^2-48l+320=0$

$(l-8)(l-40)=0$

We have two possible answers

$l=8,\ l=40$

Which gives us

$w=40,\ w=8$

In any case, the dimensions of the area will be 8 ft x 40 ft

Find the indicated conditional probability

andrezito [222]

Given:

The two way table.

To find:

The conditional probability of P(Drive to school | Senior).

Solution:

The conditional probability is defined as:

$P(A|B)=\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}$

Using this formula, we get

$P(\text{Drive to school }|\text{ Senior})=\dfrac{P(\text{Drive to school and senior})}{P(\text{Senior})}$ ...(i)

From the given two way table, we get

Drive to school and senior = 25

Senior = 25+5+5

= 35

Total = 2+25+3+13+20+2+25+5+5

= 100

Now,

$P(\text{Drive to school and senior})=\dfrac{25}{100}$

$P(\text{Senior})=\dfrac{35}{100}$

Substituting these values in (i), we get

$P(\text{Drive to school }|\text{ Senior})=\dfrac{\dfrac{25}{100}}{\dfrac{35}{100}}$

$P(\text{Drive to school }|\text{ Senior})=\dfrac{25}{35}$

$P(\text{Drive to school }|\text{ Senior})=0.7142857$

$P(\text{Drive to school }|\text{ Senior})\approx 0.71$

Therefore, the required conditional probability is 0.71.
