Answer

7/9 chance to pick a brown sock first and 1/4 chance to get a black sock after

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 9 total socks and 7 are brown so you will have a 7/9 chance to get a brown sock

then if you do get a brown the total number of socks will be 8 in the bag so then you have a 2/8 chance which can be simplified to 1/4

Lou has an account with $10,000 which pays 6% interest compounded annually. If to that account, Lou deposits $5,000 at the begin
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Option d. $22154 is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we will use the formula A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}

In this formula A = amount after time t

                        P = principal amount

                        r = rate of interest

                       n = number of times interest gets compounded in a year

                        t = time

Now Lou has principal amount on the starting of first year = 10000+5000 = $15000

So for one year A=15000(1+\frac{\frac{6}{100}}{1})^{1\times1}

= 15000(1+.06)^{1}

= 15000(1.06) = $15900

After one year Lou added $5000 in this amount and we have to calculate the final amount he got

Now principal amount becomes $15900 + $ 5000 = $20900

Then putting the values again in the formula

A=20900(1+\frac{\frac{6}{100}}{1})^{1\times1}

= 20900(1+.06)^{1}

= 20900(1.06)=22154

So the final amount will be $22154.

If the product of two number is 10 and the sum is 7 ,then the longest of the two number is​
irinina [24]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Le the first number be x

and the second number be y

So

x*y= 10-----------------1

and

x+y= 7-----------------2

from eqn 1

x= 10/y

put x= 10/y in eqn 2

10/y+y= 7\\\\10/y= 7-y

cross multiply we have

10=y(7-y)\\\\10=7y-y^2

rearrange

y^2-7y+10=0

the factors of the quadratic expression are

-5 and -2

y^2-5y-2y+10= 0\\\\y(y-5)-2(y-5) =0\\\\y-2=0\\\\y= 2\\\\y-5= 0\\\\y=5\\\\

The longest side is 5 units

Xavier left his house at time zero and
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Graph the points, (2,18) (7, 24) and (16, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Going to the store takes 2 minutes for 18 blocks, which is the first point

He stays at the store for 2 minutes then takes 3 minutes to get to the bank which is 6 blocks away, add the time together and blocks, and you get the second point

He stopped at the bank for 3 minutes and the drove back home. It takes him 6 minutes to get back home, (24/6), add all the minutes together and you get 16.

(This is assuming the graph is y for blocks and x for minutes)

I need help with all 4 <br> For # 31 - 34, solve the equation for the unknown variable.
Sati [7]
31 is g = -19
32 is x = -9
34 is w = -11
31:
g-(-7) = -12
g+7 = -12
g = -19
32:
-5x = 45 divide by -5
x = -9
33 looks like it has a print error so I can’t figure that out, I don’t know where the |-2| is supposed to be
34:
(w-1)/4 = -3 multiply by 4
w - 1 = -12
w = -11

Cloud [144]

72 = 6*12  = 3*2 * 4*3  = 3*2*2*2*3

72 = 2*2*2*3*3

72=2^3 * 3^2

You can check your answer by multiplying out the factors

2*2*2*3*3

2*2 is 4

4*2 is 8

8*3 is 24

24*3 is 72
