Answer:

  7 years 11 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value formula for the value of a principal P invested at annual rate r compounded n times yearly for t years is ...

  FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

For the given numbers, we want to find t:

  6000 = 3700(1 +.062/2)^(2t)

Dividing by 3700 and taking the logarithm, we get ...

  6000/3700 = 1.031^(2t)

  log(60/37) = 2t·log(1.031)

Dividing by the coefficient of t gives ...

  t = log(60/37)/(2log(1.031)) ≈ 7.92 . . . . . years

It will take about 7 years 11 months for the investment to grow to $6000.

What is the answer of square root of -24 in complex numbers
Sergio039 [100]

With \sqrt{-1}=i, we have

\sqrt{-24}=\sqrt{(-1)(24)}=\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{24}=i\sqrt{24}

Since 24=2^3\cdot3, we can further write this as

i\sqrt{24}=i\sqrt{2^2\cdot6}=2i\sqrt6

A basketball player makes 70% of the free throws he shoots. Suppose that he tries 15 free throws.
Volgvan

Answer:

a.) .95

b.) The expected number of baskets is 10.50.

c.) 1.7748

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) This is a binomial distribution as there are two possibilities: makes a free throw or doesn't. This means that you can use the binomial function on a calculator to figure out the answer. Use the binomial CDF function on a calculator and the number of trials=15, probability of success=.7, lower bound=0, upper bound=7. Once you have evaluated the answer, .0500, it will need to be subtracted from1, as you want everything not included in this section. The answer to part a is thus 1-.0500=.95.

b.) The expected value is calculated by taking the total number of shots and multiplying it by the probability of making the shot: 15×.7=10.5 shots.

c.) The standard deviation of a binomial distribution can be calculated by the formula \sqrt{(sample size)(probability)(1-probability)}. Plugging in the numbers you get \sqrt{(15)(.7)(.3)}=1.7748.
