Remember that percent means parts out of 100
x/100

discount is the decrease
so we divide the decrease by the original total and get
100/5775=0.0173
convert to fraction
0.0173/1
make bottom number 100
multiply by 100/100
1.73/100=1.73%
round
2%

(2x^3+6x-1)+(3x^2-7x)
sattari [20]

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

(2x ^ 3 + 6x-1) + (3x ^ 2-7x)

We eliminate the parentheses taking into account that:

+ * + = +\\+ * - = -

So, we have:

2x ^ 3 + 6x-1 + 3x ^ 2-7x =

We add similar terms taking into account that:

Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

2x ^ 3 + 3x^2-x-1

Answer:

2x ^ 3 + 3x^2-x-1

An elementary school is offering 2 language classes: one in Spanish (S) and one in French (F). Given that P(S) = 50%, P(F) = 40%
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(a) Probability that a randomly selected student is taking Spanish given that he or she is taking French = 0.5 .

(b) Probability that a randomly selected student is not taking French given that he or she is not taking Spanish = 0.6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an elementary school is offering 2 language classes ;

 <em>Spanish Language is denoted by S and French language is denoted by F.</em>

Also we are given, P(S) = 0.5 {Probability of students taking Spanish language}

P(F) = 0.4 {Probability of students taking French language}

P(S\bigcup F) = 0.7 {Probability of students taking Spanish or French Language}

<em>We know that,  </em>P(A\bigcup B)<em>  = </em>P(A) + P(B) -<em> </em>P(A\bigcap B)<em />

So, P(S\bigcap F) = P(S) + P(F) - P(S\bigcup F) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.7 = 0.2

P(S\bigcap F) means Probability of students taking  both Spanish and French Language.

Also, P(S)' = 1 - P(S) = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

         P(F)' = 1 - P(F) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

        P(S'\bigcap F') = 1 -  P(S\bigcup F) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

(a) Probability that a randomly selected student is taking Spanish given that he or she is taking French is given by P(S/F);

  P(S/F) = \frac{P(S\bigcap F)}{P(F)} = \frac{0.2}{0.4} = 0.5

(b) Probability that a randomly selected student is not taking French given that he or she is not taking Spanish is given by P(F'/S');

   P(F'/S') = \frac{P(S'\bigcap F')}{P(S')} = \frac{1- P(S\bigcup F)}{1-P(S)} = \frac{0.3}{0.5} = 0.6 .

Note: 2. A pair of fair dice is rolled until a sum of either 5 or 7 appears  ; This question is incomplete please provide with complete detail.

Broderick deposits $6,000 in an account that earns 5.5% simple interest paid annually. How long will it be before the total amou
emmainna [20.7K]
<span>i=prt 
where i is interest (9000-6000 = $3000 interest) 
p is principle ($6000) 
r is rate (5.5%) [taking that its 5.5%pa] 
t is time 

substitute these into the equation 
3000 = $6000 x 5.5% x t 
t = 3000 divided by (6000x5.5%) 
= 3000 divided by 330 
t=100/11 years 
 it would take 100/11 years which is approx 9.1 years</span>
