The 2017 population of California was 39536653 and of Arizona was 7016270. Compute and compare the rate of pedestrian fatalities

per 100,000 residents.

Answer:

The pedestrian fatality rate for California per 100,000 residents would be;

= (858/39,536,653) * 100,000

= 2.17 people per 100,000

In Arizona that figure is;

= (216/7,016,270) * 100,000

= 3.08 people per 100,000

<em>This shows that even though California has a higher number of pedestrian fatalities in absolute terms, when this figure is made relative to population, Arizona has more pedestrian fatalities. </em>

Your company has just taken out a 1-year installment loan for $72,500 at a nominal rate of 20.0% but with equal end-of-month pay

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

100% of the 2nd monthly payment go toward the repayment of principal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The loan taken is the Principal which is mentioned as $72,500 with interest at a nominal rate of 20%. Firstly, it is important to understand that nominal rate means <em>non-compounding </em>rate. Simply put will be a "<em>one-time charged" </em>rate on the loan. Since this is given as 20% of the Principal. It is calculated thus: $\frac{20}{100}$ × $\frac{72,500}{1}$ = $14,500. So the interest on the loan is $14,500. Added to the Principal the total amount to be paid back by the company becomes: $72,500 + $14,500 = $87,000. To pay back this amount at equal end-of-month installments in 1 year (12 months), we divide the total amount by 12. i.e $\frac{87000}{12}$ = $7250. This means, the monthly payment will be $7,250. Since the monthly payment pays only 10% of the initial principal $72,500. By the second month only 20% of the Principal would have been paid. So all of the monthly payment will go towards repaying the principal

How many seconds will light leaving Los Angeles take to reach the following locations (a) San Francisco (about 500km), (b) Londo

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

a) It takes 0.0017s for the light to reach San Francisco.

b) It takes 0.033s for the light to reach London.

c) It takes 1.334s for the light to reach Mars.

d) It takes 149.7s for the light to reach Venus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can solve this problem by using this following formula:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

In which s is the speed(in km/s), d is the distance(in km) and t is the time(in s).

The light speed is 299 792 458 m / s = 299,792.458 km/s, so $s = 299,792.458$

(a) San Francisco (about 500km)

Find t when $d = 500$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{500}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 500$

$t = \frac{500}{299,792.458}$

$t = 0.0017s$

It takes 0.0017s for the light to reach San Francisco.

b) London(about 10,000km)

Find t when $d = 10,000$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{10,000}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 10,000$

$t = \frac{10,000}{299,792.458}$

$t = 0.033s$

It takes 0.033s for the light to reach London.

(c) the Moon (400,000km)

Find t when $d = 400,000$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{400,000}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 400,000$

$t = \frac{400,000}{299,792.458}$

$t = 1.334s$

It takes 1.334s for the light to reach Mars.

(d) Venus (0.3 A.U. from Earth at its closest approach).

Each A.U. has 149,59,7871 km.

So 0.3 A.U. = 0.3*(149,597,871) = 44,879,361.3. This means that $d = 44,879,361.3$ . So:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{44,879,361.3}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 44,879,361.3$

$t = \frac{44,879,361.3}{299,792.458}$

$t = 149.7s$

It takes 149.7s for the light to reach Venus.
