Answer: 0.1282

Explanation:

Total number of possible outcome( total candidates) = 13

Total number of men = 13 - 8 = 5

Total number of women = 8

Number of candidates to be selected = 2

Find the probability that both are men :

Probability of 1st candidate being a male = required outcome ÷ total possible outcome = 5/13

Probability of second candidate being a male, means we now have 4 men left and a total of 12 = 4/12

Therefore, P = (5/13) × (4/12)

P = (5/13) ×(1/3) = 5/39 = 0.1282

why might a bank offer to make a loan to a consumer at a low initial rate which will increase after a set period of time?a. too
Whitepunk [10]

I believe the answer is: c. to make the loan look more attractive and competitive now

By offering it at low initial rate, the people who borrow money would experience low burden if they plan to return the money within short period of time. This would make them much more likely to obtain a loan, and it also would make the bank that create the loan program looks better compared to their competitors.

What is the best way to help students use materials successfully in learning centers?
astraxan [27]

The best way to help students demonstrate ways to use materials is when introducing them.

<h3>How can learning centers effectively support students in making effective use of the resources there?</h3>

Create, share, and put procedures into action. The complicated choreography of different students, spaces, and materials that centers entail. Teachers are responsible for developing thorough procedures, explaining them to pupils, and giving them enough time to practice them until they become second nature.

The group with purpose: Centers give students the option to work independently, in groups of their choosing based on interests, or in mixed- or leveled-ability groups. All grouping choices must be deliberate and based on the character and goal of each activity.

Give students meaningful tasks: Centers activities in all subject areas should be engaging, difficult, and, whenever possible, give students a chance to practice skills in real-world contexts. This means that activities should assist students in making connections between their classroom learning and real-world situations or in forming practical habits of mind.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$39,345,664.93

Explanation:

The computation of the company worth today is as follows:

Present value of revenues after tax is

= $3,700,000 × 1.46 × (1 - 0.25) ÷ (0.07 - 0.018)

= $77,913,461.54

And, Present value of costs after tax is

= $3,700,000 × 0.82 × (1 -0.25) ÷ (0.07-0.011)

= $38,567,796.61

So, the company worth today is

=  $77,913,461.54 - $38,567,796.61

= $39,345,664.93

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Aristotle argues that what differentiates human beings from other animals is the human reason.

Explanation:

"Good life" can be seen as the one in which a person understand and exercise their rational faculties. The word "good" can be used to show moral approval. Therefore, for someone to be called good, they must have possessed and practiced many important virtues and not pursuing their own pleasure all the time.

According to Aristotle, happiness consists in achieving all the goods like health, wealth, knowledge, friends etc throughout a lifetime. He sees happiness as the central purpose of human life.

Aristotle believes that the highest good is a solitary nucleus which all other goods are acted upon and this highest good is happiness.
