Answer:

$8000

Step-by-step explanation:

The method for calculating simple interest (I) is

I = $\frac{PRT}{100}$

where P is the principal, R is interest rate, T is time in years

here I = 1120, R = 3.5, T = 4 and P is to be found, thus

1120 = $\frac{P(3.5)(4)}{100}$ ( multiply both sides by 100 )

3.5 × 4 × P = 112000

14P = 112000 ( divide both sides by 14 )

P = $\frac{112000}{14}$ = $8000

Which equation below would be best solved by using the addition property of equality?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: F-23=45

Step-by-step explanation:

The addition property of equality means that if:

A = B

then we can add the same thing in both sides of the equation, and the equality will remain balid, so:

A + C = B + C.

Then, the correct answer is the last option:

F - 23 = 45

Then we can add the same number to both sides, we can add 23 to both sides and in this way isolate F:

F - 23 = 45

(F - 23) + 23 = 45 +23 = 68

F + (23 - 23) = 68

F = 68

Sixty seven percent of the employees in a company have managerial positions, and 58 percent of the employees in the company have

Kazeer [188]

Answer: The proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of employees having managerial positions = 67%

Probability of employees having MBA degrees = 58%

Probability of managers having MBA degrees = 67%

So, using probability formulas, we get that

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.67+0.58-0.67\\\\P(A\cup B)=0.58$

Hence, the proportion of employees who either have MBAs or are managers are 0.58.

Gina mixed paint to make her favorite shade of purple. She filled up one third of the container with red paint. Then she filled

Masteriza [31]

There is 1000 milliliters in a liter. So we're gonna work with thirds. One third is already filled, so that means two thirds is not . So 4 liters fills up 2/3 which we can infer that 2 liters fills up one third of the area... so there is 6 liters in total. Which means there is a total of 6000 milliliters of paint.
