Answer:
The thief has a 0.11% probability of hitting the pin code on the first try.
Explanation:
Simply, if the ATM card has a 3-digit code that can be repeated, and the board has 9 numbers (for example, from 1 to 9), we must start from the smallest number that could be formed with these numbers to the highest number that these numbers could also compose, which in the case would be 111 and 999. Then, 889 different numbers could be formed (it is the distance between 111 and 999), with which the possibility of hitting the key to the first attempt would be 1 in 889 times, or 1/889.
To take the probability to a percentage, we must know that 889 / 8.89 gives 100. Therefore, dividing 1 / 8.89 we will know the percentage of probabilities of hitting the key on the first attempt: 1 / 8.89 = 0.11.
This shows us that the thief has a 0.11% probability of hitting the key on the first try.
Answer:
The endowment fund is not satisfied with the advisor's performance
Explanation:
Judging from a nominal interest rate perspective where return expected of an investment comprises of real rate of return and an extra return which is a compensation for inflation rate in the economy,the endowment fund is not satisfied with performance of the advisor.
The satisfactory rate of return that would be expected of the advisor is computed below:
nominal interest rate=real rate+inflation rate
real rate is 8.2%
inflation rate is 2.9%
nominal interest rate=8.2%+2.9%
=11.10%
