Answer:

16 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P (1 + r)n

A = $1 (1 + 0.05)3

A = $1 x 1.16

A = $1.16

To find the compound interest only;

Compound Interest = Final Value - Initial Value

Compound Interest = $1.16 - $1

Compound Interest = $0.16

Hence the compound interest John will earn in his savings account will be 16 cents.

Suppose approximately 75% of all marketing personnel are extroverts, whereas about 70% of all computer programmers are introvert

Setler [38]

Answer:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1.000$ ---- At least 5 from marketing departments are extroverts

$P(x=15) = 0.013$ ---- All from marketing departments are extroverts

$P(x = 0) = 0.002$ ---------- None from computer programmers are introverts

Step-by-step explanation:

See comment for complete question

The question is an illustration of binomial probability where

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$(a):\ P(x \ge 5)$

$n = 15$ --- marketing personnel

$p = 75\%$ --- proportion that are extroverts

Using the complement rule, we have:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)$

So, we have:

$P(x < 5) =P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4)$

$P(x = 0) = ^{15}C_{0} * (75\%)^0 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 0} = 1 * 1 * (0.25)^{15} = 9.31 * 10^{-10}$

$P(x = 1) = ^{15}C_{1} * (75\%)^1 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 1} = 15* (0.75)^1 * (0.25)^{14} = 4.19 * 10^{-8}$

$P(x = 2) = ^{15}C_{2} * (75\%)^2 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 2} = 105* (0.75)^2 * (0.25)^{13} = 8.80 * 10^{-7}$

$P(x = 3) = ^{15}C_{3} * (75\%)^3 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 3} = 455* (0.75)^2 * (0.25)^{12} = 0.0000153$

$P(x = 4) = ^{15}C_{4} * (75\%)^4 * (1 - 75\%)^{15 - 4} = 1365 * (0.75)^4 * (0.25)^{11} = 0.000103$

So, we have:

$P(x < 5) = (9.31 * 10^{-10}) + (4.19 * 10^{-8}) + (8.80 * 10^{-7}) + 0.0000153 + 0.000103$

$P(x < 5) = 0.00011922283$

Recall that:

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - P(x < 5)$

$P(x \ge 5) = 1 - 0.00011922283$

$P(x \ge 5) = 0.9998$

$P(x \ge 5) = 1.000$ --- approximated

$(b)\ P(x = 15)$

$n = 15$ --- marketing personnel

$p = 75\%$ --- proportion that are extroverts

So, we have:

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$P(x=15) = ^{15}C_{15} * 0.75^{15} * (1 - 0.75)^{15-15}$

$P(x=15) = 1 * 0.75^{15} * (0.25)^{0$

$P(x=15) = 0.013$

$(c)\ P(x = 0)$

$n=5$ ---------- computer programmers

$p = 70\%$ --- proportion that are introverts

So, we have:

$P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

$P(x = 0) = ^{5}C_0 * (70\%)^0 * (1 - 70\%)^{5-0}$

$P(x = 0) = 1 * 1 * (0.30)^5$

$P(x = 0) = 0.002$

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't well written but let me help out. I saw a similar question.

Example 1: Aling Luz bought 3/8 yards of linen cloth which cost Php 72.00 per yard. She gave Php 1000.00 to the cashier.How much change will she get?

Since we are informed that Aling Luz bought 3/8 yards of linen cloth which cost Php 72.00 per yard, the amount she'll pay will be:

= 3/8 × 72

= Php 27

Since she gave the cashier Php 1000, her change will be:

= 1000 - 27

= Php 973

Evaluate the integral of the quotient of the cosine of x and the square root of the quantity 1 plus sine x, dx.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

∫((cos(x)*dx)/(√(1+sin(x)))) = 2√(1 + sin(x)) + c.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question, it is important to notice that the derivative of the expression (1 + sin(x)) is present in the numerator, which is cos(x). This means that the question can be solved using the u-substitution method.

Let u = 1 + sin(x).

This means du/dx = cos(x). This implies dx = du/cos(x).

Substitute u = 1 + sin(x) and dx = du/cos(x) in the integral.

∫((cos(x)*dx)/(√(1+sin(x)))) = ∫((cos(x)*du)/(cos(x)*√(u))) = ∫((du)/(√(u)))

= ∫(u^(-1/2) * du). Integrating:

(u^(-1/2+1))/(-1/2+1) + c = (u^(1/2))/(1/2) + c = 2u^(1/2) + c = 2√u + c.

Put u = 1 + sin(x). Therefore, 2√(1 + sin(x)) + c. Therefore:

∫((cos(x)*dx)/(√(1+sin(x)))) = 2√(1 + sin(x)) + c!!!
