Answer:
The probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery is 0.00005.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the events be denoted as:
<em>X</em> = the stock goes up
<em>Y</em> = Joe wins the lottery
Given:
P (X) = 0.50
P (Y) = 0.0001
The events of the stock going up is not dependent on the the event of Joe winning the lottery.
So the events <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> are independent of each other.
Independent events are those events that can occur together at the same time.
The joint probability of two independent events <em>A</em> and <em>B </em>is,
Compute the value of P (<em>X ∩ Y</em>) as follows:
Thus, the probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery is 0.00005.
Answer:
6 Years
Step-by-step explanation:
Orlando invests $1000 at 6% annual interest compounded daily.
Orlando's investment =
Bernadette invests $1000 at 7% simple interest.
Bernadette's investment = A = 1000(1+0.07×t)
By trail and error method we will use t = 5
Bernadette's investment will be after 5 years
1000(1 + 0.07 × 5)
= 1000(1 + 0.35)
= 1000 × 1.35
= $1350
Orlando's investment after 5 years
=
=
= 1000(1.349826)
= 1349.825527 ≈ $1349.83
After 5 years Orlando's investment will not be more than Bernadette's.
Therefore, when we use t = 6
After 6 years Orlando's investment will be = $1433.29
and Bernadette's investment will be = $1420
So, after 6 whole years Orlando's investment will be worth more than Bernadette's investment.
