Answer: If the time is 3 1/2 years (most reasonable assumption)

Her initial deposit was $160

Step-by-step explanation:  The basic formula for simple interest is

<em>i = prt  i </em>is interest, P is principal (deposit) r is the percentage (converted to a decimal) and t is time, the number of years.

For this question, you have to rearrange the equation to solve for p.

So divide both sides by rt and you have

p =  i/rt

Substitute the values given

p = 36.40/(0.065)(3.5)

Ashley draws a square that has a diagonal of
xz_007 [3.2K]
The diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the sides of the square as legs.
By Pythagoras (s = side)
s^2 + s^2 = 15^2
2s^2 = 225
s^2 = 112.5
s = sqrt(112.5)
s = 10.6 cm (to the nearest tenth)

An academic department with five faculty members narrowed its choice for department head to either candidate a or candidate
Fantom [35]
The probability that the first two votes drawn are both for candidate a is given by:
3C2/5C2 = 3/10
Having drawn two votes for candidate a on the first two draws, there are 2 votes for candidate b and one vote for candidate a remaining. The probability that a vote for candidate b will be drawn on the third draw is:
2/3.
After the first three draws, there reains one vote for candidate a and one vote for candidate b. The probability that a vote for candidate a will be drawn on the fourth draw is:
1/2.
The probability of the ordering aabab is therefore given by:
\frac{3}{10}\times\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{6}{60}
The answer is: 0.1.
