Answer:

Pr(all will survive in one year) = 0.35 to 2 decimal places

Pr(at least 8 will survive) = 0.39 to 2 decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a tree surviving one year is 0.9. While not surviving probability is 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

This is obtained from the 90℅ surviving rate for one year planted by the landscaping firm.

Probability that if 10 trees are planted, all will survive for one year is:

0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9x0.9 = 0.9^10 = 0.349

Probability that at least 8 will survive in one year can be expressed as

8 survived x 2 not survived +(or) 9 survived x 1 not survived +(or) 10 survived

= [(0.9^8)x(0.1^2) + (0.9^9)x(0.1^1) + (0.9^10)] = 0.391

3. Suppose your credit card has a balance of $7800 and an annual interest rate of 16%. You decide
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

  • $274.22 per month
  • $2071.92 in total interest
  • $433.48 more per month
  • $1379.52 less in interest

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The amortization formula is used to find the monthly payment (A):

  A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))

for a loan of a principal amount P at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years.

For a borrowed amount of $7800 at 16% compounded monthly for 3 years, the payment will be ...

  A = $7800(.16/12)/(1 -(1 +.16/12)^(-12·3)) ≈ $274.22

You must pay $274.22 each month to pay off the credit card in 3 years.

__

b) The total amount repaid is 36 times this monthly payment, so is ...

  $274.22 × 36 = $9871.92

The amount by which this exceeds the principal borrowed is ...

  $9871.92 -7800 = $2071.92

You will pay $2071.92 in interest.

__

c) Changing the time period to 1 year gives the payment value ...

  A = $7800(.16/12)/(1 -(1 +.16/12)^(-12·1)) ≈ $707.70

The additional amount you must pay is ...

  $707.70 -274.22 = $433.48

You must pay $433.48 more each month.

__

d) Your total interest with the higher payments will be ...

  $707.70×12 -7800 = $692.40

The difference in interest amounts is ...

  $2071.92 -692.40 = $1379.52

You will pay $1379.52 less in total interest.

_____

<em>Caveat</em>

Here, the monthly amounts are rounded and the total repayment amount is based on that rounded value. In an actual payment situation, the final payment will be adjusted by a small amount to account for the fact that the monthly payment shown is not exact. That will affect the total interest and the difference in interest.

Sati [7]
The ratio of length to width would change slightly, before adding on to the dimensions, the ratio is 6 : 2.5    with the added dimensions, the ratio would change to 8 : 4.5    with simple math you can see that 2.5 is less then half of 6 while 4.5 is more then half of 8

Answer:

9.11 x 10^-28

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 9.11 x 10^-28 by 1.67 x 10^-24 you get .000546

if you divide 1.67 x 10^-24 by 9.11 x 10^-28 you get 1,833

therefore, 1.67 x 10^-24 is 1833 times greater than the other value
