5 0

Answer:

2115751

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

- The number of 5 letter words that contain x is the number of 5 letter words overall minus the number of 5 letter of words without x.

                  How many 5 letter words are there overall?

- The first letter could be one of 26 letters. The same could be said about the second letter, and the third, and the fourth and the fifth .. so on.

- So the number of 5 letter words overall is:

                        26x26x26x26x26 = 26^5 = 11881376

          How many 5 letter words are there that do not contain x?

- The first letter could be one of 25 letters (it could be one of any of the other 25 letters but not x). The second letter could also be one of 25 letters, and so could the third, and so could the fourth, and so could the fifth.

- So the number of 5 letter words that do not contain x is:

                        25x25x25x25x25 = 25^5 = 9765625

- So the number of 5 letter words that contain x is:

                      26^5 - 25^5 = 11881376 - 9765625 = 2115751.

Answer: The third one

Step-by-step explanation: We can eliminate the first one right off the bat sinc we see that -4 has two outputs. Next, the graph's equation has no slope (x=3) so the input is all the same. Thirdly, the table shows a relationship between x and y and the numbers don't have a pattern that shows more than one output or input for a number. The fourth option are simply coordinates, it doesn't particularly tell us that all the coordinates are related to each other.

You purchased a rare painting for $150 that is increasing in value by 3% annually. How many years will it take until it is doubl
Ahat [919]

Answer:

23 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the initial price of painting is $150 and its values increasing by 3% annually.

We need to find how many years will it take until it is doubled in value.

The value of painting after t years is given by

y=150(1+0.03)^t

y=150(1.03)^t

The value of painting after double is 300. Substitute y=300.

300=150(1.03)^t

Divide both sides by 150.

2=(1.03)^t

Taking log both sides.

\log 2=\log (1.03)^t

\log 2=t\log (1.03)

t=\dfrac{\log 2}{\log (1.03)}

t=23.44977

t\approx 23

Therefore, the required number of years is 23.
