A=P(1-24/100)⁸

15,542 =P(0.76)⁸

P= (15,542)/(0.76)₂

P= 15,542/0.111303

P = 139,836

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -7) and has a slope of 0 <br>​
Natali [406]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis with equation

x = c ( where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through )

The line passes through (- 6, - 7 ) with x- coordinate - 6 , then

x = - 6 ← equation of line

UPS charges $7 for the first pound, and $0.20 for each additional pound. FedEx charges $5 for the first pound and $0.30 for each
hjlf

Answer:

The costs will be the same at 21 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the number of additional pounds.  (Total weight would be p+1).

UPS cost = 7 + 0.20p

FedEx cost = 5 + 0.30p

We need these to be equal.

7 + 0.20p = 5 + 0.30p

0.10p = 2

p = 20

What's the larger angle?
topjm [15]

Answer:

100°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles om a straight line add up to 180°

10x°+8x°=180°

18x°=180°

x=10

The larger angle = 10x°

= 10(10)°

= 100°

Find the mean, range, and interquartile range of the heights of plants given
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Mean = 30.9

Range = 80

Interquartile Range = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a set of numbers is the sum divided by the number of terms. In other words that means 2, 22, 4, 36, 82, 44, 65, 30, 8, 16 go over a fraction like this. There are 10 numbers here so this is our denominator.

\frac{2+ 22 + 4 + 36 + 82 + 44 + 65 + 30 + 8 + 16}{10}

\frac{309}{10} > 30.9

For the range, all we do is subtract the minimum value from the maximum which is 82 - 2. That gives us 80.

For the IQ Range....

Arrange the terms in ascending order.

2, 4, 8, 16, 22, 30, 36, 44, 65, 82

Then we need to find the median which is the average of the two middle terms.

\frac{22+30}{2} > \frac{2*11 + 30}{2} >\frac{2*11+2*15}{2} > \frac{2 * (11 + 15)}{2} > 11 + 15 > 26

So for the lower half of data 2, 4, 8, 16, 22 we have the median of 8

And for the upper half 30, 36, 44, 65, 82 we have the median of 44.

To find the IQ Range it is the difference between the first quartile (8) and the third (44)

So 44 - 8 = 36
