The new rent per month is $1,607.35.
Given: Original rent = $1,550; Cost of Living Index = 3.7%
1. Multiply the original rent by the Cost of Living Index
1,550 * .037 = 57.35

2. Add the product of original rent and Cost of Living Index to the original rent
1,550 + 57.35 = $1,607.35

Answer:
new rent = $1607.35

Explanation:
Assume that the original rent is x

We are given that the rent increased by 3.7%.
This means that:
new rent = x + 3.7% x
new rent = x + 0.037 x

We are given that x = 1550, therefore:
new rent = 1550 + 0.037(1550)
new rent = 1550 + 57.35
new rent = $1607.35

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

R = 101

S = 131

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you will want to get your angle T. Since T is on the same line as the angle with 128 degree, you can easily find angel T. They are supplementary angels and form 180.

T=180-128

T=52

You also know that all angles in a triangle equal to 180

Use that to find angle S

180 = R+S+T

180 = 79 + S + 52

180 - 79 - 52 = S

49 = S, exterior S = 180-49 = 131

Exterior R = 180 - 79 = 101

Now add all your exteriors

Fill in the missing number in this newspaper report:
natka813 [3]

Answer:

£125000

Step-by-step explanation:

Original cost of house = £100 000

Percent increase = 25%

Increase in price = 25% of 100,000

Increase in price = 0.25 * 100,000

Increase in price = 25000

New cost = original cost + Increment

New cost = 100,000 + 25,000

New cost = 125,000

Hence it now cost  £125000

Suppose that the rate of return on stocks is normally dis-tributed with mean of 9% and a standard deviation of 3%. If I pick fiv
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The probability that at least two stocks will have a return of more than 12% is 0.1810.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = rate of return on stocks.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution, N (9, 3²).

Compute the probability that a stock has rate of return more than 12% as follows:

P(X\geq 12)=1-P(X

**Use the <em>z</em> table for the probability.

The probability of a stock having rate of return more than 12% is 0.1587.

Now define a random variable <em>Y</em> as the number of stocks that has rate of return more than 12%.

The sample size of stocks selected is, <em>n</em> = 5.

The random variable <em>Y </em>follows a Binomial distribution.

The probability of a Binomial distribution is:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x};\ x=0, 1, 2, ...

Compute the value of P (X ≥ 2) as follows:

P (X ≥ 2) = 1 - P (X < 2)

              = 1 - P (X = 0) - P (X = 1)

              =1-{5\choose 0}(0.1587)^{0}(1-0.1587)^{5-0}-{5\choose 1}(0.1587)^{1}(1-0.1587)^{5-1}\\=1-0.4215-0.3975\\=0.1810

Thus, the probability that at least two stocks will have a return of more than 12% is 0.1810.
