Answer:

No. Of slices my friend eats = No. Of slices eaten by me - No. Of slices my friend eats fewer than me

= 5 - 2

= 3

Use a calculator to approximate the measure of the acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree. sin A = 0.7793

Aleksandr [31]

The measure of acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is 51.2°

<h3>Measure of angles</h3>

From the given information, we are to determine the measure of the angle.

The angle we are to determine its measure is acute angle A

From the given information, we have that

sin A = 0.7793

Thus,

A = sin⁻¹(0.7793)

Using calculator

A = 51.1965°

A ≅ 51.2°

Hence, the measure of acute angle A to the nearest tenth of a degree is 51.2°

What is the interest earnt on a $5000 investment at 6.4% p.a. after 3 years if interest is compounded weekly?

AveGali [126]

Let's assume there are 52 weeks in a year,
so we have , rate= 6.4/52= 0.123%
now ,
c.i = 5000[(1+0.123/100)^3×52 -1]
= $1056.911

Complete the square for 5x^2 – 30x = 5.

Yuri [45]

First, subtract 5 from both sides, leaving you with 5 $x^{2}$ - 30x - 5 = 0
If you use the quadratic formula (a=5), (b=-30), (c=-5)

x=-b +/- √b²-4ac / 2a

x= -(30) +/- √(30)² - 4(5) * (-5) / 2(5)

x= 30 +/- √1000 / 10

x = 3 +/- √10

A couple book a cruise to Alaska that promises to refund 100 per day of rain on the seven day cruise up to a maximum of 300. The

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 9463.394

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

A couple book a cruise to Alaska that promises to refund 100 per day of rain on the seven day cruise up to a maximum of 300.

It is possible that the couple won't be able to refund up 100 per day or more than 100 per day.

SO; let assume that the refund payment happens to be 0, 100,200, 300

Let X be the total refund payment on the seven day cruise.

We can say X = 0, if there is no rain on all 7 days.

$P(X = 0) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 0) = _7C_o * 0.2^0 * (1-0.2)^{7-0$

$P(X = 0) =1 * 1* (1-0.2)^{7$

$P(X = 0) =(0.8)^{7$

$P(X = 0) =0.2097152$

If it rains on any one day; then X = 100

$P(X = 100) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 100) = _7C_1 * 0.2^1 * (1-0.2)^{7-1$

$P(X = 0) =7 * 0.2* (1-0.2)^{6$

$P(X = 100) =7* 0.2* (0.8)^{6$

$P(X = 100) =0.3670016$

if it rains on any two day ; then X = 200

$P(X = 200) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 200) = _7C_2 * 0.2^2 * (1-0.2)^{7-2$

$P(X = 200) = 21 * 0.2^2 * (0.8)^{5$

$P(X = 200) = 0.2752512$

if it rains on any three day or more than that ; then X = 300

$P(X \ge 300) = 1 - P(X < 300) \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 1 - [P(X = 0) + P(X = 100) + P(X = 200)] \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 1 - [0.2097152 + 0.3670016 + 0.2752512] \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 0.148032$

Now; we have our probability distribution function as:

P(X = 0) = 0.2097152

P(X = 100) = 0.3670016

P(X = 200) = 0.2752512

P(X = 300) = 0.148032

In order to determine the variance of the refund payment to the couple; we use the formula:

variance of the refund payment to the couple $[Var X] =E [X^2] - (E [X])^2$

where;

$E[X^2] = \sum x^2 \times p \\ \\ E[X^2] = 0^2 * 0.2097152 + 100^2 * 0.3670016 + 200^2 * 0.2752512 + 300^2 * 0.148032 \\ \\ E[X^2] = 0 + 3670.016 + 11010.048+ 13322.88 \\ \\ E[X^2] =28002.944$

$(E [X]) = \sum x * p\\ \\ (E [X]) = 0 * 0.2097152 + 100 * 0.3670016 + 200 * 0.2752512 + 300 * 0.148032 \\ \\ (E [X]) = 0 + 36.70016 + 55.05024 + 44.4096\\ \\ (E [X]) = 136.16 \\ \\ (E [X])^2 = 136.16^2 \\ \\ (E [X])^2 = 18539.55$

NOW;

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 28002.944 - 18539.55

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 9463.394
