Step-by-step explanation:

17 balls numbered 1 through 17

Picking without replacement :

If the second ball picked = 4

P(first ball has a smaller number)

Numbers less Than = (3, 2, 1)

P(number less than second ball Given 4 is drawn for second ball) :

= (3/17 * 1/16) ÷ (3/17 * 1/16) +) 14/17 * 0)

= (3 / 272) / (3 /272) * 0

= 3 / 272 * 272 / 3

= 1

2.)

(8/17 * 7/8) ÷ (8/17 * 7/8) + (9/17 * 1/17)

Kipish [7]

Answer: Present value = $7200

Step-by-step explanation: Given Principal that is the original amount is $6000

Rate is 10% every fourth year

But the total period is eight.

So the interest would be paid 8/4 = 2 times.

Therefore,

Simple interest

= {principal * rate * no of times}/100

= {$6000*10*2}/100

Simple interest = $1200

Present value

= principal + Simple interest

= $6000 + $1200

= $7200.

Help plz with Algebra question I attached a file
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x=4.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = (1/2) (base) (height)

20 = (1/2) (x+4) (x)

40 = x²+4x

x²+4x-40=0

Put in quadratic equation:

x=\frac{-4(+/-)\sqrt{4^{2}-4(1)(-40) } }{2(1)}

x=\frac{-4(+/-)\sqrt{176} }{2}

x=4.63324958071 or x=-8.63324958071

Since x can't be negative in this case we take our answer to be 4.63324958071, which rounds to 4.63
