It starts at 100% - 15% = 85% after the first year. $15,000*0.85 = $12,750
The second year is further reduced 100% - 16% = 84%
$12,750*0.84 = $10,710
A is the correct answer !
Answer:
P=0.147
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know 80% of the trucks have good brakes. That means that probability the 1 randomly selected truck has good brakes is P(good brakes)=0.8 . So the probability that 1 randomly selected truck has bad brakes Q(bad brakes)=1-0.8-0.2
We have to find the probability, that at least 9 trucks from 16 have good brakes, however fewer than 12 trucks from 16 have good brakes. That actually means the the number of trucks with good brakes has to be 9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16.
We have to find the probability of each event (9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16 will pass the inspection) . To find the required probability 3 mentioned probabilitie have to be summarized.
So P(9/16 )= C16 9 * P(good brakes)^9*Q(bad brakes)^7
P(9/16 )= 16!/9!/7!*0.8^9*0.2^7= 11*13*5*16*0.8^9*0.2^7=approx 0.02
P(10/16)=16!/10!/6!*0.8^10*0.2^6=11*13*7*0.8^10*0.2^6=approx 0.007
P(11/16)=16!/11!/5!*0.8^11*0.2^5=13*21*16*0.8^11*0.2^5=approx 0.12
P(9≤x<12)=P(9/16)+P(10/16)+P(11/16)=0.02+0.007+0.12=0.147
Answer:
SAS theorem
Step-by-step explanation:
If
and m∠ECD = m∠BCA, then the triangles are similar by the SAS theorem.

So,
and m∠ECD = m∠BCA because vertical angles are congruent
Therefore ΔECD is similar to ΔBCA by SAS theorem
