Answer: E) 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of any member being selected for each of the 3 posts is 1/10 that is they have equal probabilities of being selected for any of the posts.

The probability that harry would be selected for;

Secretary Ps= 1/10

Treasurer Pt = 1/10

So the probability of being selected for either secretary or treasurer is

P = Ps + Pt

P = 1/10 + 1/10

P = 2/10

P = 1/5

Note: ignore the sequence of selection

Differentiate the function. f(x) = sin(9 ln(x))
gayaneshka [121]

Answer: f'(x)=\dfrac{9\cos(9\ln (x))}{x}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=\sin(9\ln (x))

Using chain rule differentiate w.r.t. x.

f'(x)=\cos(9\ln (x))\dfrac{d}{dx}(9\ln (x))      \left[\because \dfrac{d}{dx}\sin x=\cos x\right]

f'(x)=\cos(9\ln (x))\left[9\dfrac{d}{dx}(\ln (x))\right]

f'(x)=\cos(9\ln (x))\left[9\times \dfrac{1}{x}\right]       \left[\because \dfrac{d}{dx}\ln x=\dfrac{1}{x}\right]

f'(x)=\dfrac{9\cos(9\ln (x))}{x}

Therefore, f'(x)=\dfrac{9\cos(9\ln (x))}{x}.

PLEASE HELP MEE
Goshia [24]

Answer:

$223,600

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply 520000 by 0.19 and get an answer of 98800. This is how much by which the car depreciates every year.

2. Now multiply 98800 by 3 (years). Now your answer would be 296400.

3. Now minus the depreciated value from the original value which is 520000-296400=223600.

Not sure about the answer but I hope this helped a bit
