Answer:

Marage got more votes than akoth by = 1/3 - 1/4 = 1/12

Marage got more votes than kirui by = 1/3 - 1/5 = 2/15

Akoth got more votes than kirui by = 1/4 - 1/5 = 1/20

Step-by-step Explanation:

The share of votes got by Akhoth = 1/4

The share of votes got by Marage = 1/3

The share of votes got by Kirui = 1/5

1/4 = 0.5 ⇒ 25%

So, Akhoth got 25% votes.

1/3 = 0.33 ⇒ 33%

So, Marage got 33% votes.

1.5 = 0.20 ⇒ 20%

So, Kirui got 20% votes.

Determining Comparison:

Marage got more votes than akoth by = 1/3 - 1/4 = 1/12

Marage got more votes than kirui by = 1/3 - 1/5 = 2/15

Akoth got more votes than kirui by = 1/4 - 1/5 = 1/20

Therefore,

A) Marage got more votes than akoth by = 1/3 - 1/4 = 1/12

B) Marage got more votes than kirui by = 1/3 - 1/5 = 2/15

C) Akoth got more votes than kirui by = 1/4 - 1/5 = 1/20

Capital Value An investment produces a perpetual stream of income with a flow rate of

Elodia [21]

Answer:

$30,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The capital value is given by

$\int_{0}^{\infty} R(t) e^{-r t} dt$

where R(t) is annual rate

r - annual rate of interest

capital value $= \int_{0}^{\infty} 1200 e^{0.03t} e^{-0.07 t} dt$

= lim at b tend to infinity $\int_{0}^{b} 1200 e^{0.03t} dt$

=lim at b tend to infinity $\left [ \frac{1200}{-0.04} e^{-0.04 t} \right ]_0^b$

-30,000 { lim at b tend to inifinity $(e^{-0.04 b) = e^0]$

As $b\rightarrow \infty, e^{-0.04 b} \rightarrow 0$

$\int_{0}^{\infty} 1200 e^{0.03t} e^{-0.07 t} dt = -30,000(0 -1) =$30,000$
