The answwer to your question is D
Answer:
The population is expected to double in 36 years
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the the rule of 72,
A value is doubled if the product of the annual rate and number of years is 72,
Given,
The annual rate of interest = 2%
Let x be the time in years after 1965,
By the above statement,
The population will double if,
x × 2 = 72 ⇒ x = 36
Hence, the after 36 years since 1965 the population will be doubled,
i.e in 2001. ( ∵ 36 years after 1965 )
There are two blue marbles so you have a 2/8 probability of drawing a blue marble on each draw since the marble is replaced after the first draw. 2/8 can be simplified to be 1/4 and then converted to be 0.25 per draw. 0.25 plus 0.25 equals 0.5. Since we are dealing with percentages multiply 0.5 x 100 which equals 50. Now take 50 and divided by the total number of marbles in the bag which is 8. 50 divided by 8 equals 6.25. So it would be about 6%.
