Answer: \dfrac{8}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total students in group= 30

Number of students study French =  9

Number of students study Spanish = 14

Number of students study both French and Spanush =7

Number of students study either French or Spanish = 9+14-7=16

Now, the probability of studying French or Spanish is given by :-

\text{P(French or Spanish)}=\dfrac{16}{30}=\dfrac{8}{15}

Hence, the probability of studying French or Spanish is \dfrac{8}{15}

Or means not both
if  people study both then the number of people studying either french or spanish is 7 less than the total number of peple studig french and spanish because thoe 7 are common to both groups

9+14=total=23
23-7=16 people studing either

proabblity=desiredoutcmes/totalpossibe
desired=16
total=30
so 16/30=8/15 is the probablity

Answer:

C. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

({3^{\frac{1}{7}})^7

We know that the rules of exponents are used to solve these kind of questions.

When there is exponent on exponent like in this question 1/7 has an exponent of 7 , the exponents are multiplied.

So,

=3^{(7*\frac{1}{7} )}

The 7's will be cancelled out and remaining power will be 1

=3^1\\=3

Hence, option C is correct ..

A person invests 10000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.5% interest compounded
Greeley [361]

The person would have to leave the money in the bank for 7.8 years for it to reach 13,500 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we must calculate how much interest is generated for a single year. The annual interest rate is 4.5% i.e. 4.5% of 10,000 dollars which equals 0.045 × 10,000 = 450 dollars a year. As the years pass, more and more will be put into the account due to interest.

Step 2; For there to be 13,500 dollars in the bank account we need to calculate how much money is added due to interest.

The money needed to be added through interest = 13,500 - 10,000 = 3,500 dollars.

So we need to determine how long it will take for the bank to add 3,500 dollars by adding 450 dollars a year.

The number of years to reach 13,500 dollars = \frac{3,500}{450} = 7.777 years. By rounding this value to the nearest tenth, we get 7.8 years.
