Answer: the cost of the car is $54600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of the car.

She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. This means that the amount of money that she paid as deposit would be

20/100 × x = 0.2 × x = 0.2x

The remaining balance would be

x - 0.2x = 0.8x

She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments of $5460 each month. This means that

0.8x/8 = 5460

0.1x = 5460

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 0.1, it becomes

0.1x/0.1 = 5460/0.1

x = 54600

Find how many two digit numbers are divisible by 3
Bad White [126]

I'll use arithmetic series to find it.

First two-digit number divisible by 3 is 12, last such number is 99. Every 3rd number is divisible by 3.

So,

a_1=12\\a_n=99\\d=3\\n=?\\\\a_n=a_1+(n-1)\cdot d\\99=12+(n-1)\cdot 3\\3n-3=87\\3n=90\\n=30

<u>There are 30 such numbers.</u>

Can someone please help me?
Irina18 [472]

I will try i had this unit last year, basically the diameter is 5 in this problem, which you multiply by pi (in this case I will use 3.14 as the shortened version since its on-going) which gives you 15.7, then you multiply that by 3 in this problem to get 47.1!

The times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency are normally distributed with a mean of 6 minutes and a
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the times a fire department takes to arrive at the scene of an emergency. Since the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 6 minutes

σ = 1 minute

the probability that fire department arrives at the scene in case of an emergency between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is expressed as

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8)

For x = 4,

z = (4 - 6)/1 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.023

For x = 8

z = (8 - 6)/1 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.98

Therefore,

P(4 ≤ x ≤ 8) = 0.98 - 0.23 = 0.75

The percent of emergencies that the fire department arrive at the scene in between 4 minutes and 8 minutes is

0.75 × 100 = 75%

What are the period and amplitude of the function?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The period of function is 5 and amplitude is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The period of the function is the time interval after which it repeats itself.</em>

It means the time interval after which the same value of graph is attained.

In the above case looking at the peak point at time 5 seconds, the same value is obtained at time 10 seconds.

Thus the time interval is (10 - 5) 5 seconds.

<em>Amplitude is the maximum value attained by the graph in the complete interval.</em>

In the above case, the maximum value attained is 3.
