Answer: the athlete's salary for year 7 of the contract is $3795957

Step-by-step explanation:

The player signs a contract with a beginning salary of $3,000,000 for the first year and an annual increase of 4%. This means that the amount he gets each year is 1.04 times of the previous year's amount. The rate at which his salary increases is in geometric progression. The nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^n-1

Where

Tn is the salary for the nth year

a is the salary for the first year

r is the rate at which the salary is increasing. So

a = 3,000,000

n = 7

r = 1.04

We want to determine T7. It becomes

T7 = 3000000 × 1.04^(7-1)

T7 = 3000000 × 1.04^6

Tn = $3795957

Put in proportions x/45 = 18/27.
Cross multiply and get 27x= 45 x 18
Or 27X = 810.
Next, divide by 27 on both sides to get X=30.

katrin [286]

Answer:

y=-x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-1-1)/(5-3)

m=-2/2

m=-1

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-1(x-3)

y-1=-x+3

y=-x+3+1

y=-x+4

Given a normal distribution with a mean of 128 and a standard deviation of 15, what percentage of values is within the interval
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

E. 99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate each z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (173 − 128) / 15

z = 3

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (83 − 128) / 15

z = -3

You can use a z-score table, or use the empirical rule.

P(-3 < z < 3) = 99.7%.

Mei Mei left her house at time zero and drove for 4 minutes to the store, at a speed of 2 blocks per minute. Then she stopped an
m_a_m_a [10]

The graph for Mei Mei' trip is attached accordingly. Also attached are the  values derived from the question.

<h3>What is the explanation for the graph?</h3>

The secret to comprehending the graph is to understand that every time Mei Mei spent while she was on the way to bank and back were are all computed cumulatively.

This means that when she stops at the store which is 8 blocks away from home (that is 2 blocks per min x 4 mins = 8blocks) the time spent is recorded as 4 + 5 at location 8 blocks, which is equals 9 minutes.

Also take note of the fact that the time spent is plotted on the x-axis and the blocks away from home on the y-axis.
