Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Water in the pool is leaking at a rate of 4 gallons per day. This rate is linear. It is decreasing in an arithmetic progression. The formula for finding the nth term of an arithmetic progression sequence is

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where

Tn is the nth term of the sequence

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

a is the first term of the sequence

From the information given ,

The pool holds 17,922 gallons of water initially, so

a = 17922

d = - 4 because it is the rate at which the water is decreasing

n = 120 because we want to determine the number of

gallons of water that will remain in the pool after 120 days.

T120 is the amount that will remain in the pool after 120 days.

T120 = 17922 + (120-1) - 4

T120 = 17922 + 119 × - 4

T120 = 17446 gallons

<u>First problem :</u>
probability to draw a red paper : 42/(42+18)=7/10

In 110 tries one can thus expect to draw 7/10*110=77 red papers

<u>Second problem :</u>
Since for 150 trials (which will give the least error) we have got 135 yellow balls, we can expect twice as much in 300=150*2 trials, which makes 270 yellow balls.

A word processor that was purchased for $600
klasskru [66]
The slope of the graph shows the rate of change, or, in this case, the rate of depreciation, which you are told is $100 per year. So, depending upon the units used in your graph, the slope will be 100/1, and since it is a decrease as the years increase, it will have a negative slope, i.e. -100/1. 

Or, if you had drawn your graph with units of $100 dollars on the y-axis, then you might say that the slope was -1 / 1. 

The corresponding formula would of course be 

y = 600 - 100t 

where y = value after t years, and (if you are into calculus) differentiating would give you 

slope = dy/dt = -100
