Answer:

the length of ST = 3.6 to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

Points on the Cartesian are written as (x, y)

Given points S(-4, -2) and T(-1, 0)

The distance between these two points is given by the formula

ST = √[(x₂-x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)²]

x₂ = -4

x₁ = -1

y₂ = -2

y₁ = 0

ST = √{[-4 - (-1)]² + [-2 - 0]²}

ST = √[(-4 + 1)² + (-2)²]

ST = √(-3²+4)

ST = √(9 + 4)

ST = √13

ST = 3.6 to the nearest tenth

Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car. He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase, and financing the rest at 4.8% in

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The monthly payment is $262.95

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car

- He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase

* Lets find the value of the 20%

∵ The principal value is $11000

∴ the value of the 20% = 20/100 × 11000 = 2200

∴ He will put $2200 down

* Lets find the balance to be paid off on installments

∴ The balance = 11000 - 2200 = 8800

- He financing the rest at 4.8% interest rate for 3 years

* Lets find the rule of the monthly payment

∵ $pmt=\frac{\frac{r}{n}[P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}]}{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1}$ , where

- pmt is the monthly payment

- P = the investment amount

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ P = 8800

∵ r = 4.8/100 = 0.048

∵ n = 12

∵ t = 3

∴ $pmt=\frac{\frac{0.048}{12}[8800(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}]}{(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}-1}$

∴ $pmt=\frac{0.004[8800(1.004)^{36}]}{(1.004)^{36}-1}=262.95$

* The monthly payment is $262.95

Scores on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 76 and a standard deviation of 10. In a group of 230 tests, how many s

Tanzania [10]

The score of 96 is 2 standard deviations above the mean score. Using the empirical rule for a normal distribution, the probability of a score above 96 is 0.0235.
Therefore the number of students scoring above 96 is given by:
$230\times 0.0235=5\ students$

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: 0.571 is greater than 0.4. Therefore, 4/7 is greater than 2/5 and the answer to the question "Is 4/7 greater than 2/5?" is yes. Note: When comparing fractions such as 4/7 and 2/5, you could also convert the fractions (if necessary) so they have the same denominator and then compare which numerator is larger.
