Answer:

$\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

P(tail) = $\frac{1}{2}$

P(2) = $\frac{1}{6}$

P(tail and 2 ) = $\frac{1}{2}$ × $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{12}$

Sally invests £8000 in a savings account. The account pays 2.8% compound interest per year work out the value of her investment

Alborosie

Answer: the value of her investment after 4 years is £8934.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining compound interest is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount invested.

t represents the duration of the investment in years.

From the information given,

P = 8000

r = 2.8% = 2.8/100 = 0.028

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 4 years

Therefore,

A = 8000(1+0.028/1)^1 × 4

A = 8000(1+0.028)^4

A = 8000(1.028)^4

A = £8934.3 to the the nearest penny

A local grocery store chain has a sushi stand. That sushi stand makes samples for store customers to entice customers to purchas

Liula [17]

Answer: 0.99822

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inter-arrival time follows Poisson distribution with parameter 14 which is in hour so first we have to calculate this in minutes as we have to calculate probability in minutes.

So converting 14 into minutes will give $\frac{14}{60}$ =0.233

Let X=inter-arrival time between two customers

and here $\lambda$ = 0.233

Probability(X is less than or equal to 2 minutes) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)

Now the Poisson distribution has PDF = $\frac{\exp ^{-\lambda }\times \lambda ^{X}}{X!}$

So P(X = 0) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{0}}{0!}$ = 0.79215

P(X= 1) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{1}}{1!}$ = 0.18457

P(X=2) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{2}}{2!}$ = 0.02150

Now adding all three probability gives = 0.79215 +0.18457 + 0.02150=0.99822

For the point P (-17,25) and Q(-10,30), fins the distance d(P,Q) and the coordinates of the midpoint M of the segment PQ.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Distance = 8.6

M = (-13.5,27.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_{2 }- x_{1 })^2 + (y_{2 }- y_{1 })^2$

= $\sqrt{(-10_ }- (-17)_{ })^2 + (30_{ }- 25_{ })^2$

= $\sqrt{(-10_{ }+ 17_{ })^2 + 5^2_$

= $\sqrt{7^2+5^2}$

= $\sqrt{49+25}$

= $\sqrt{74}$

= 8.6

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{2}+x_{1}}{2};\frac{y_{2}+y_{1}}{2})$

= (-10+(-17)) ÷ 2 ; (30+25) ÷ 2

= -27 ÷2 ; 55 ÷ 2

= -13.5, 27.5
