Answer:

a. answer to a can be found in the attached file

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

Pr[survival] = Pr[survival|lands] * Pr[lands] = 0.35 * 0.2 = 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its overall probability of survival?

a. Find the probability tree as attached below

b. Pr[survival] = Pr[good&survive]+Pr[medium&survive]+Pr[low&survive]=

0.24+0.06+0.05 = 0.35

c. Assume that the seed has a 0.2 chance of dying before it lands in a habitat. What is its  overall probability of survival?

Pr[survival] = Pr[survival|lands] * Pr[lands] = 0.35 * 0.2 = 0.07

The height of a box that bill is shipping is 4 inches less than the width of the box. the length is 10 inches more than twice th
8090 [49]
This is the concept of algebra, let the width be x
height=x-4
length=2x+10
the volume of the box is:
volume=length*width*height
=x(x-4)(2x+10)
expanding the above we get:
(x^2-4x)(2x+10)
=x^2(2x+10)-4x(2x+10)
=2x^3+2x^2-40x=264
solving the above we get real solution will be
x=6
thus we conclude that the width is x=6 inches
length=2*6+10=22 inches
height=x-4=6-4=2 inches
thus the dimension will be:
width=6 inches, length=22 inches, height=2 inches

A closing is March 5 for a rental property with an annual tax bill of $2800. Calculate and show the debit and credits for the ta
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The debit and credits for the tax proration will be as follows:

Debit seller for $483.29; and Credit buyer for $483.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

The assignment of how much is owed to the responsible party is the major reason of a proration.

For the days owned by the seller, the buyer needs money from the seller since the buyer will pay the taxes at end of the year.

Amount per day = Annual tax bill / 365 = $2800 / 365 = $7.67

Total number of days from January 1 to a day before March 5 = Number of days in January + Number of days in February + Number of days from March 1 to March 4 = 31 + 28 + 4 = 63

Amount the seller owes for the time he owned = Amount per day * Total number of days from January 1 to a day before March 5 = $7.67 * 63 = $483.29

Therefore, the debit and credits for the tax proration will be as follows:

Debit seller for $483.29; and Credit buyer for $483.29.
