Answer:The simple interest rate is 7.50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest, I =( P × T × R) / 100

Where P= Principal investment

T = Time in years

R = rate

Given

P= 981.60

I = 1000 - 981.60 = 18 .40

T = 13 weeks = 13 / 52 = 0.25 year

I =( P × T × R) / 100

Cross multiply

I × 100 = P × T × R

18.40 × 100 = 981.60 × 0.25 × R

1840 = 245.4 R

R= 1840 / 245.4

R = 7.498%

To the nearest tenth

R = 7.50%

The Eco Pulse survey from the marketing communications firm Shelton Group asked individuals to indicate things they do that make
Bad White [126]

Answer:

a) There is a probability of 42% that the person will feel guilty for only one of those things.

b)There is a probability of 46% that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons

Step-by-step explanation:

This probability problem can be solved by building a Venn like diagram for each probability.

I say that we have two sets:

-Set A, for those people that will feel guilty about wasting food.

-Set B, for those people that will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room.

The most important information is that there is a .12 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons. It means that P(A \cap B) = .12.

The problem also states that there is a .39 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food. It means that P(A) = 0.39. The probability of a person feeling guilty for only wasting food is PO(A) = .39-.12 = .27.

Also, there is a .27 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room. So, the probability of a person feeling guilty for only leaving the lights on is PO(B) = 0.27-0.12 = 0.15.

a) What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room?

This is the probability that the person feels guilt for only one of those things, so:

P = PO(A) + PO(B) = 0.27 + 0.15 = 0.42 = 42%

b) What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons

The sum of all the probabilities is always 1. In this problem, we have the following probabilies

- The person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons: P

- The person will feel guilty for only one of those things:  PO(A) + PO(B) = 0.42

- The person will feel guilty for both reasons: PB = 0.12

So

`P + 0.42 + 0.12 = 1

P = 1-0.54

P = 0.46

There is a probability of 46% that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons
