Answer: She started with $160.
It will take 6 weeks before she has less than half of what she originally invested.
Step-by-step explanation:
If her money is decreasing in value by 11% each week, it means that the rate at which it is decreasing is exponential.
We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as
A = P(1 - r)^t
Where
A represents the value of the investment after t weeks.
t represents the number of weeks.
P represents the initial value of the investment.
r represents rate of depreciation.
From the information given,
A = $142.40
r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11
t = 1
Therefore
142.40 = P(1 - 0.11)^1
142.40 = P(0.89)
P = 142.4/0.89
P = 160
For her to have half of what she invested originally, then
80 = 160(0.89)^t
80/160 = (0.89)^t
0.5 = (0.89)^t
Taking log of both sides to base 10
Log 0.5 = log0.89^t = tlog0.89
- 0.3010 = - 0.051t
t = - 0.3010/- 0.051
t = 5.9
Approximately 6 weeks
Answer:
No we can consider A as single event. See the explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define the event A as:
A=" Select a 4 from a standard deck of 52 cards"
We know that in a standard deck we have 4 different types of 4, spade, heart, diamond and club.
And by definition of simple event we need to have just one possible outcome in the experiment, and on this case we have 4 possible options for event A, so for this reason the event A can't be considered as simpl event.
Answer: 2/3
Cathy rolls a number cube that is labeled from 1 to 6.
Total outcomes = {1,2,3,4,5,6}
she rolls an even number or a multiple of 3
Outcomes of an even number = {2,4,6}
Outcomes of multiple of 3 = {3,6}
so favorable outcomes of even number or a multiple of 3 = {2,3,4,6}
Probability ( any event) =number of favorable outcomes divide by total number of outcomes
probability(even number or a multiple of 3) = 
7 1/8 is greater than 7.025
