T = 7.23 years (either 5 or 10, you choose)

Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 8.3%/100 = 0.083 per year,
then, solving our equation

t = (1/0.083)((80000/50000) - 1) = 7.23
t = 7.23 years

The time required to get
a total amount, principal plus interest, of $ 80,000.00
from simple interest on a principal of $ 50,000.00
at an interest rate of 8.3% per year
is 7.23 years (about 7 years 3 months).

A game is played using ne die. If the die is rolled and shows 3, the player wins $45. If the die shows any number other than 3,
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

-$13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable of a count of player gain.

- We are told that if the die shows 3, the player wins $45.

- there is a charge of $9 to play the game

If he wins, he gains; 45 - 9 = $36

If he looses, he has a net gain which is a loss = -$9

Thus, the x-values are; (36, -9)

Probability of getting a 3 which is a win is P(X) = 1/6 since there are 6 numbers on the dice and probability of getting any other number is P(X) = 5/6

Thus;

E(X) = Σ(x•P(X)) = (1/6)(36) + (5/6)(-9)

E(X) = (1/6)(36 - (5 × 9))

E(X) = (1/6)(36 - 45)

E(X) = -9/6 = -3/2

E(X) = -3/2

This represents -3/2 of $9 = -(3/2) × 9 = - 27/2 = -$13.5

A store makes a profit of $15 on a wallet, after a mark up of 60%, what is the selling priceof the wallet?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Markup: $9 ; Selling Price: $24

Step-by-step explanation:

The store makes a profit of $15, to find the mark up of 60%, multiply 15 x 60%.

15 x 0.6 = 9

Add the markup price to the original price.

9 + 15 = $24

The selling price is $24
