Answer:
The number of bicycles in the store is 178\ bicycles178 bicycles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the number of bicycles
y-----> the number of tricycles
we know that
The bicycles has two wheels and the tricycles has three wheels
so
2x+3y=4102x+3y=410 ------> equation A
x=10y-2x=10y−2 ------> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
2(10y-2)+3y=4102(10y−2)+3y=410
20y-4+3y=41020y−4+3y=410
23y=41423y=414
y=18\ tricyclesy=18 tricycles
Find the value of x

Answer:

The number of bicycles in the store is 178\ bicycles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the number of bicycles

y-----> the number of tricycles

we know that

The bicycles has two wheels and the tricycles has three wheels

so

2x+3y=410 ------> equation A

x=10y-2 ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

2(10y-2)+3y=410

20y-4+3y=410

23y=414

y=18\ tricycles

Find the value of x

x=10(18)-2=178\ bicycles

If a 60 year old buys a $1000 life insurance policy at a cost of $50 and has a probability of 0.954 of living to age 61 find the
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61 is of -$4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

0.954 probability of a loss of $50.

1 - 0.954 = 0.046 probability of "earning" 1000 - 50 = $950.

Find the expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61.

Each outcome multiplied by it's probability, so:

E = -0.954*50 + 0.046*950 = -4

The expectation of the policy until the person reaches 61 is of -$4.

if $5,000,000 isinvested at 4% interest compunded continuously, how much willl the investment be worth in 30 years
Katarina [22]
The answer is $16216987.55 (IMPORTANT: This is the answer assuming that the interest rate is annually. The quesiton says 'continuously' so I was a bit confused)

To solve this problem, you can use the compound interest formula. 

Here it is once you plug in the numbers: A = 5,000,000 ( 1 + .04) ^30

Just solve the equation to find the solution.
