Answer:

3) 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that tomorrow the Fed will cut interest rates (P(F)) OR the DJIA will go up (P(D)), is the sum of each event's individual probability minus their joint probability (Fed cutting interest rates AND the DJIA will going up, P(FD))

P(F+D) = P(F) +P(D) - P(FD)\\P(F+D) = 0.5 + 0.67 - (0.5*0.9)\\P(F+D) = 0.72

The probability that tomorrow the Fed will cut interest rates or the DJIA will go up is 0.72.

How do i solve this​
Sophie [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

You're given that ΔUVW is similar to ΔYZW.  The tricky part is identifying which sides in ΔUVW correspond to which sides in ΔYZW.

The triangles share point W, so visually rotate one triangle around W until the two triangles align.  That way, you can see that UW and ZW correspond to each other, and VW and YW correspond to each other.

Now you can find the scale:

VW / YW = 5/12

And you can write a proportion to find x:

UW / ZW = VW / YW

x / 64 = 5 / 12

x = 26 ⅔

Determine the simple interest rate for each given principal, time, and simple interest earned.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

31.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is I = PRT, where I = interest earned/paid, P = principal amount deposited or borrowed, R = rate of interest as a decimal, and T = time in years.

I = PRT

5720 = (1200)(R)(15)

5720 = 18,000R

R = 0.3177777, rounded to 31.8%
