Total number of people in ward = 16
Number of nurses = 10
Number of male nurses = 4
Number of female nurses = 6

Number of doctors = 6
Number of male doctors = 3
Number of female doctors = 3

We are to find the probability of selecting a female or a doctor.

Probability of selecting a female or a doctor = Probability of selecting a female + probability of selecting a doctor - probability of selecting a female doctor

Probability of selecting a female or a doctor = 9/16 + 6/16 - 3/16 = 3/4

Thus, the probability of selecting a female or a doctor is 3/4

What is the equivalent amount in year ten of an expenditure of $5,000 in year one, $6,000 in year two, and amounts increasing by
Archy [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is the equivalent amount is $139,059.41

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the equivalent amount in year ten is shown below;

= $5,000 × (P/A, 10%,10) + $1,000 × (P/G, 10%,10)

= $5,000 × 6.1466 + $1,000 × 22.8913

= $30,723 + $22,891.30

= $53,614.30

Now the equivalent amount is

= $53,614.30 × (F/P, 10%,10)

= $53,614.30 × 2.5937

= $139,059.41

Hence, the equivalent amount is $139,059.41
