The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
 x: number of years
 y: total salary
 We have then:
 For first company:
 y = 1500x + 31000
 For second company:
 y = 2000x + 28500
 Equaling both equations we have:
 1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
 Clearing x:
 2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
 500x = 2500
 x = 2500/500
 x = 5
 Answer:
 
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
 
x = 5 years

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Not independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a certain population of married couples, 30% of the husbands smoke, 20% of the wives smoke, and in 8% of the couples both the husband and the wife smoke.

Let A be the event that husbands smoke and B the event that wives smoke

Give that

P(A) = 0.30\\P(B) = 0.20\\P(A\bigcap B) = 0.08

To check whether A and B are independent it is sufficient to check

P(A\bigcap B)=P(A)P(B)

Right side=P(A)P(B)\\=0.3(0.2)\\=0.06

Left side = 0.08

Since two sides do not equal the two events are not independent.

What is an internal and External angle
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

In geometry, an angle of a polygon is formed by two sides of the polygon that share an endpoint. For a simple (non-self-intersecting) polygon, regardless of whether it is convex or non-convex, this angle is called an interior angle (or internal angle) if a point within the angle is in the interior of the polygon. A polygon has exactly one internal angle per vertex. If every internal angle of a simple polygon is less than 180°, the polygon is called convex. In contrast, an exterior angle (or external angle) is an angle formed by one side of a simple polygon and a line extended from an adjacent side.
