Answer:

Jenns account has the greater simple interest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is:

A=P*(1+r*t)

Where A is the final amount after investment, P is the initial amount, r is the rate of interest and t is the time periods.

For Lindsey:

253=250*(1+r*1)

Solve for r

r=(253/250)-1=0.012

Lindsey simple interest was 1.2% annually

For Jenn:

257.50=250*(1+r*2)

r=((257.50/250)-1)/2=0.015

Jenn simple interest was 1.5% annually

Therefore Jenns account has the highest simple interest rate.

In a survey of 225 art students 28% reported that their favorite color is blue. What is the margin of error for the sample?
ipn [44]
Margin of error is important in determining the probability as it gives realistic data for the distribution. The formula to be followed for margin of error is m% = z* sqrt (p*(1-p))/n where p is the % positive outcome, n is the sample size and z* is a constant dependent to % confidence level. Substituting, m% = z* (0.03). Level of confidence is not given but assuming at95% CF, m% = 6%

Answer:

x || t,         [Given]  

m\angle 16 = m\angle 7     [Given]                      ......[1]

Transversal defined as a line that cuts across two or more Parallel lines.

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are equal in measure.

m\angle 16 = m\angle 1   [Corresponding Angle theorem]     ......[2]

Substitute value [1] in [2] we have;

m\angle 7 =m\angle 1   [Substitution Property]

When two lines are cut by a transversal and the alternate exterior angles are equal in measure, then the lines are parallel.

k || w                     [ By Alternative Exterior Angle Theorem]       Hence proved!
