<h3>Answer:</h3>

3) likely

4) 1/2; equally likely

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

3) You are being asked to translate a numerical value to a subjective statement. There are no hard-and-fast rules for this. Generally, the meanings of the terms you're asked to choose from are ...

impossible: probability is zero. The outcome cannot occur.
unlikely: chances are less than even; often, "unlikely" means a probability of 10%, 5%, 1% or lower, depending on the context.
equally likely: probability is near 50%
likely: more likely than not. Again, this depends on the context.
certain: probability is 1. There is no chance the outcome will not occur.

An 80% probability is greater than 50%, so might reasonably be called "likely."

___

4) a. Four of the eight numbers are even, so the probability of obtaining an even number at random is 4/8 = 1/2.

b. A probability of 50% might reasonably be called "equally likely", as the probability the event will occur is equal to the probability it won't.

user100 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. what is the question? solve for k? okay.

step 2. 4(k - 6) = 6(-4 - 5k)

step 3. 4k - 24 = -24 - 30k

step 4. 34k = 0

step 5. k = 0.

Express 1/10 cm as a fraction of 3 metres

Liula [17]

Answer:

1/3000

Step-by-step explanation:

3 meters to centimeters:

3 × 100 = 300

= 1/10 ÷ 300

= 1/10/300

= 1/(10×300)

= 1/3000

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is c(x) = (3x-2) / (8x+1), find the average cost for eac

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

a) $\frac{74}{10025}$

b) $\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

c) $\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For total cost function $c(x)$ , average cost is given by $\frac{c(x)}{x}$ i.e., total cost divided by number of units produced.

Marginal average cost function refers to derivative of the average cost function i.e., $\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'$

Given: $c(x)=\frac{3x-2}{8x+1}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

At x = 50 units,

$\frac{c(50)}{50}=\frac{150-2}{50(400+1)}=\frac{148}{50(401)}=\frac{74}{10025}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

Marginal average cost:

Differentiate average cost with respect to $x$

Take $f=3x-2\,,\,g=8x^2+x$

using quotient rule, $\left ( \frac{f}{g} \right )'=\frac{f'g-fg'}{g^2}$

Therefore,

$\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'=\left ( \frac{3x-2}{8x^2+x} \right )'\\=\left ( \frac{3(8x^2+x)-(16x+1)(3x-2)}{(8x^2+x)^2} \right )\\=\frac{24x^2+3x-48x^2-3x+32x+2}{(8x^2+x)^2}\\=\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$

$1500 is invested at a rate of 3% compounded monthly. Write a compound interest function to model this situation. Then find the

Marianna [84]

Answer:

<u>Equation</u>: $F=1500(1.0025)^{12t}$

<u>The balance after 5 years is: $1742.43</u>

<u></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound growth problem . THe formula is:

$F=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where

F is future amount

P is present amount

r is rate of interest, annually

n is the number of compounding per year

t is the time in years

Given:

P = 1500

r = 0.03

n = 12 (compounded monthly means 12 times a year)

The compound interest formula modelled by the variables is:

$F=1500(1+\frac{0.03}{12})^{12t}\\F=1500(1.0025)^{12t}$

Now, we want balance after 5 years, so t = 5, substituting, we get:

$F=1500(1.0025)^{12t}\\F=1500(1.0025)^{12*5}\\F=1500(1.0025)^{60}\\F=1742.43$

<u>The balance after 5 years is: $1742.43</u>

(1.7x10^13)+(0.8x10^13)

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

(1.7x10^13)+(0.8x10^13)

=(1.7x1e+13)+(0.8x1e+13)

=1.7e+13+0.8e+13

=2.5e+13

in actual number it would be 25,000,000,000,000
