Answer:
D!
Step-by-step explanation:
There's only one decimal point in the answer. This is quite obvious. Regardless of whether or not your adding, subtracting, dividing, or multiplying, there's really only going to be one decimal, ever. This doesn't change, However, what DOES change are decimal PLACES.
Looking at the problem, you see both .6 and .4 are placed to the right of the decimal, otherwise known as the tenths place (1/10).
Looking at 1.9, you see you have one number (1) placed to the left of the decimal, the ones place, and another number placed to the right of the decimal (9), in the tenths place.
Well, this is simple. You can look and see that your multiplying fractions against a whole number, which will of course make this whole number even smaller. By how much though??
Well, you can really tell this by looking at how MANY numbers are behind the decimal. You have .9, .4, and .6
That's 3 numbers behind the decimal place. This may not help you solve the problem itself, but this tells you here (ignoring the 1, that will be taken out immediately while solving and turned into a 0) that you will have 3 numbers placed from the tenths place all the way to the thousandths place.
Basically, this tells you that you'll have three decimal places to the right of the decimal.
As for rewriting your problem to better show this, that's simple too.
All you have to do is simple multiplication, just in the tenths place. How? You know that 6*4 (referring to .6 and .4) is 24, that means that .6*.4 will be .24
How does this support your answer before? .24 has TWO numbers to the right of the decimal. That's TWO decimal places. With the .9 in 1.9, that's still THREE decimal places to the right of the decimal, and your answer would be the same.
So, here's it re-written.
1.9*.24=X

Answer: 0.145
Step-by-step explanation:
Since,
the Probability of the older pump failing P(fail older) = 0.10
The probability of the newer pump failing P(fail newer) = 0.05
Therefore,
The Probability of the older pump not failing P(not fail older) = 1 - 0.1
P(not fail older) = 0.9
Also,
The probability of the newer pump not failing P(not fail newer) = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95
The probability of the pumping system failing = P(not fail older)* P(not fail newer) = 0.9*0.95
P(not fail system)= 0.855
Therefore,
The probability that the pumping system will fail = 1 - P(not fail system) = 1 - 0.855 = 0.145
The probability that the pumping system will fail one day is 0.145
The required equation is y = 10000(1.0.25)^2x. The value of Christina’s investment after 20 years is $30,773.14
Compound interest
The interest accrued on a sum of money is known as interest. The formula for calculating the compound interest is expressed as:
y = y0(1+r/n)^nx
where
x is the time taken
r is the rate in decimal
n is the compounding time
Given the following
x = 20 years
n 2(semi annually)
r = 5.7% = 0.057
Substitute
y = 10000(1+0.057/2)^2(20)
y = 10,000(1 + 0.0285)^40
y = 10000(1.0285)^40
y = 30,773.14
Hence the value of Christina’s investment after 20 years is $30,773.14

Answer:
89/13
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Multiply the denominator by the whole number
13 × 6 = 78
Step 2
Add the answer from Step 1 to the numerator
78 + 11 = 89
Step 3
Write answer from Step 2 over the denominator
89/13
