Answer: $8,100

Step-by-step explanation:

If it does not rain, the producer stands to make a profit of $15,000.

If it rains, the producer will lose the $8,000 they invested.

The chance of rain is 0.3 which means the chance it does not rain is 0.7.

Producer's expected profit is the weighted average of these outcomes;

= (15,000 * 0.7) + ( -8,000 * 0.3)

= 10,500 + ( - 2,400)

= $8,100

What is the factor of -12n - 20 ( 50pts!!!!!)
kolezko [41]

Answer:

-4(3n + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to factor the expression:

-12n - 20

Look at the two terms, which are -12n and -20. Obviously, they don't share an "n", but they do share another number.

Notice that -12 can be written as the product of -4 and 3: -12 = -4 * 3. Similarly, -20 can be written as the product of -4 and 5: -20 = -4 * 5. Since 3 and 5 are prime numbers, we know that -4 is the biggest factor that -12 and -20 share. So, let's factor that out of the expression:

-12n - 20 = -4 * [(-12n/-4) + (-20/-4)] = -4 * (3n + 5)

So, the factored form of this expression is -4(3n + 5).

Answer:

  1731 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent relation is useful in this problem.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The height of the light is found to be ...

  tan(11°) = height/(639 ft)

  height = (639 ft)·tan(11°) . . . . . solve for height

Then the distance from the light to point B is ...

  tan(3°) = height/(B distance)

  B distance = height/tan(3°) = (639 ft)·tan(11°)/tan(3°) ≈ 2370 ft

Then the distance from point A to point B is ...

  2370 ft -639 ft = 1731 ft . . . AB distance

F(x)=-x^2+x<br> f(x)=−x <br> Find f(−1)
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

<u>Step 1:  Set x to -1 in the first equation </u>

f(x) = -x^2 + x

f(-1) = -(-1)^2 + (-1)

f(-1) = -(1) - 1

f(-1) = -1 - 1

f(-1) = -2

<u>Step 2:  Set x to -1 in the second equation </u>

f(x) = -x

f(-1) = -(-1)

f(-1) = 1
