Answer:

Hence, the total cost of mailing 10 ounces is:

$ 2.52

Step-by-step explanation:

If postage costs $.54 for the first ounce and $.22 for the each additional ounce.

i.e. cost of first ounce=$ 0.54.

Now let x denote the number of ounces after the first ounce,

Hence, the cost of x ounces=$ (0.22×x)=$ 0.22 x

Hence, the cost of mailing (x+1) ounces is: $ (0.54+0.22 x)

Now, we have to find the cost of  mailing a 10- ounce envelope.

i.e. after the first ounce we need 9 more ounces.

Hence, the total cost of mailing is calculated as:

=$ (0.54+0.22\times 9)\\\\=$ (0.54+1.98)\\\\=$ 2.52\\

Hence, cost of mailing 10 ounces is:

$ 2.52

10-first oz=9oz
0.54 for first
0.22 times 9=1.98
total is 1.98+0.54=2.52

Find the size of each of 66 payments made at the end of each year into a 88​% rate sinking fund which produces ​$36000 at the en
Assoli18 [71]

Answer: $7787.99

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to find the periodic payment on an annuity is given by :-

P=\dfrac{r(PV)}{1-(1+r)^{-n}}, where PV is the present value , r is the rate of interest ( in decimal ) and n is the number of payments.

Given : Present value : $36000

Rate of interest = 8%=0.08

Time period = 6 years

Then , the periodic payment will be :-

P=\dfrac{(0.08)(36000)}{1-(1+0.08)^{-6}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\dfrac{2880}{0.3698}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\$7787.99

Hence, the payment size is $7787.99.

The pound has three kinds of dogs: pit bull, chihuahuas and mutts. All but 23 of the dogs are pit bull, all but 17 are chihuahua
Georgia [21]

Answer:

There are 68 dogs in the pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pit bull dogs in a pound = P = 23

Number of chihuahuas dogs in a pound = C = 17

Number of mutts dogs in a pound = M = 28

Total number of dogs in a pound = T

T = P+C+M=23+17+28=68

There are 68 dogs in the pound.

What is the correlation coefficient for the data shown in the table?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correlation coefficient is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the correlation coefficient for the given dataset

from the table, what do we observe?

As x is increasing by 5 units;

y is decreasing by 5 units

What this mean is that there is a negative correlation between both

Thus, what we have here is that, since the rate of increase/decrease on both ends is of equal magnitude but opposite signs, we can conclude that the correlation coefficient is -1
