34 + x = 40 what does "x" equal? :3 ~Potato

X= 6. 6 is the answer, because to find the answer, you can subtract. 40 - 34= 6, hence your answer. Hoped this helped, and you can send me a message if you ever need help with this!

Try doing 40 - 34 first:
40 - 34 = 6
Now try 34 + 6
34 + 6 = 40
X=6

A policyholder has probability 0.7 of having no claims, 0.2 of having exactly one claim, and 0.1 of having exactly two claims. C

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

0.89.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which is going to aid in the solution to this question or problem. So, the data or parameters are;

(1). "probability 0.7 of having no claims, 0.2 of having exactly one claim, and 0.1 of having exactly two claims."

(2). " distributed on the interval [0,60] and are independent."

(3). "The insurer covers 100% of each claim."

So, taking (1) above we will have;

(Total probability= 0.7 + 0.2 + 0.1 = 0.1)

A = { (0.7 × 0)^2 + (0.2 × 1)^2 + ( 0.1 × 2)^2 =( 0.4) +( 0.4) = 0.8.

0.8 + total probability = 0.8 + 0.1 = 0.9.

So, from the question, we are to "Calculate the probability that the total beneﬁt paid to the policyholder is 48 or less."

Hence, P< 48/A = P < 48/0.9 = P < 53.33.

Thus, 53.33/60 = 0.89.

The sum of first three terms of a finite geometric series is -7/10 and their product is -1/125. [Hint: Use a/r, a, and ar to rep

Alchen [17]

Ooh, fun

geometric sequences can be represented as
$a_n=a(r)^{n-1}$
so the first 3 terms are
$a_1=a$
$a_2=a(r)$
$a_2=a(r)^2$

the sum is -7/10
$\frac{-7}{10}=a+ar+ar^2$
and their product is -1/125
$\frac{-1}{125}=(a)(ar)(ar^2)=a^3r^3=(ar)^3$

from the 2nd equation we can take the cube root of both sides to get
$\frac{-1}{5}=ar$
note that a=ar/r and ar²=(ar)r
so now rewrite 1st equation as
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{ar}{r}+ar+(ar)r$
subsituting -1/5 for ar
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{\frac{-1}{5}}{r}+\frac{-1}{5}+(\frac{-1}{5})r$
which simplifies to
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{-1}{5r}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-r}{5}$
multiply both sides by 10r
-7r=-2-2r-2r²
add (2r²+2r+2) to both sides
2r²-5r+2=0
solve using quadratic formula
for $ax^2+bx+c=0$
$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
so
for 2r²-5r+2=0
a=2
b=-5
c=2

$r=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(2)}}{2(2)}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-16}}{4}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{9}}{4}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm 3}{4}$
so
$r=\frac{5+3}{4}=\frac{8}{4}=2$ or $r=\frac{5-3}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

use them to solve for the value of a
$\frac{-1}{5}=ar$
$\frac{-1}{5r}=a$
try for r=2 and 1/2
$a=\frac{-1}{10}$ or $a=\frac{-2}{5}$

test each
for a=-1/10 and r=2
a+ar+ar²= $\frac{-1}{10}+\frac{-2}{10}+\frac{-4}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}$
it works

for a=-2/5 and r=1/2
a+ar+ar²= $\frac{-2}{5}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-1}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}$
it works

both have the same terms but one is simplified

the 3 numbers are $\frac{-2}{5}$ , $\frac{-1}{5}$ , and $\frac{-1}{10}$

What is the y-intercept of y = 5x - 1?

Serhud [2]

Answer:

Given Equation: y=5x-1

as we know that the y intercept have, x coordinate(absicasse) equal to 0

so,put x=0 to get y intercept

i.e, y =5×0 -1

i.e, y= -1
