You have invested in three different stocks: Engineering Aces, Upton Clothiers, and Thompson Musical Instruments. Because you ha

ve diversified your stocks so well, the way they change is independent. The probabilities of the stocks changing in value by more than 10% in a given week are listed below.
P(E) = 19%
P(U) = 11%
P(T) = 6%
What is the probability that all three will change by more than 10% in the same week?

Answer:

answer is 0.001254.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you invested in 3 stocks of Engineering Aces, Upton Clothiers, and Thompson Musical Instruments.

Also given that each stock value is independent of the other.

Let E be the event changing in value by more than 10% in a given week for Engineering Aces,

U be the event changing in value by more than 10% in a given week for Upton Clothiers, and T be the event changing in value by more than 10% in a given week for Thompson Musical Instruments.

Given that P(E) =  = 19%

P(U) = 11%

P(T) = 6%

probability that all three will change by more than 10% in the same week

= P(EUT)

= P(E) P(U) P(T) since three events are independent.

=0.19(0.11)0.06

= 0.001254

Nadia spent 1/4 of her money on a shirt and 2/5 of her money on new shoes. What fraction of Nadias money was spent?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

13/20 of her money was spent.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you have to add these two fractions together, and to do that you must find a common denominator.

For this problem I chose to use 20 for the denominator since it is the smallest number that both 4 and 5 have in common.

Keep in mind that, whatever you do to the denominator, you must also do to the numerator, so if you multiply 5 by 4, you must also multiply 2 by 4.

5/20 + 8/20 = 13/20

h=20w

in one week hector works 20 hours

in two hector works 40 etc


h = hours and w = weeks. the money is just extra information.

h=20w works because if it has been two weeks we substitute the w with the number 2 and can solve

h=20(2)

h=20x2

h=40

This proves that the equation is true
