Answer:

\frac{7}{60}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a group of 40 people, 35% have never been abroad. Two people are selected at random without replacement and are asked about their past travel experience.

Since the two are drawn without replacement the first trial affects the second trial.  In other words, each trial is not independent of the other.

a) Hence this cannot be binomial experiment.  The reason is p=probability for each trial is not constant as first draw affect the probability for Ii draw

b) The probability that in a random sample of 2, no one has been abroad

=Prob of selecting both people from the group where no one has been abroad

We have in the group 35% i.e. 14 people never been to abroad

So required probability = Prob of selecting both from 14 people

=\frac{14C2}{40C2} \\=\frac{14*13}{40*39} \\=\frac{7}{60}

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

A) [First try is correct for all U1 to U4]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Trying each option

(let x = 1,2,3,4) since it goes from U1 to U4 (Geometric sequence)

A.) 10(-4/5)^x

10(-4/5)^1 = -8

10(-4/5)^2 = 6.4

10(-4/5)^3 = -5.12

10(-4/5)^4 = 4.096

You deposit $300 in a savings account that pays 6% interest compounded semiannually. How much will you have at the middle of the
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  How much will you have at the middle of the first year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 0.5 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

substituting the values

A=300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(0.5\right)}

A=300\cdot \frac{2.06}{2}

A=\frac{618}{2}

A=309 $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest,  from compound interest on an original principal of  $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 2 times per year  over 0.5 years is $ 309.00.

Part b) How much at the end of one year?

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 1 years

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}

so substituting the values

A\:=\:300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(1\right)}

A=300\cdot \frac{2.06^2}{2^2}

A=318.27 $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest,  from compound interest on an original principal of  $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year  compounded 2 times per year  over 1 year is $ 318.27.
