They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.
We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5
So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches
Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever
Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03
Side note: 2.25/81 is equivalent to the reduced fraction 1/36 (express 2.25/81 as 225/8100 and then divide both parts by the GCF 225)
Answer:
a=1.29 approx
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we must do for this case is to find the equation of the line.

We have then:

We choose an ordered pair:

Substituting values:
From here we conclude:
Intersection with y:
We evaluate x = 0 in the function:
Slope of the line:
Point (-2, -5):
We evaluate the value of x = -2 and the value of y = -5

The equation is satisfied.
Point (8, 0):
It is part of the table, therefore belongs to the line.
Answer:
The slope is 1/2
The y-intercept is -4.
The points (-2, -5) and (8, 0) are also on the line.
15000 * (1+ 0.03)^4
15000 *1.1255 = 16882.63 total after 4 years
16882.63 - 15000 = 1882.63 total interest
Answer is D
Answer:
approximation is often useful when it is not a very good one
