finlep [7]

Answer:

0.3157

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that according to a certain news poll, 71% agreed that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly,

Let A be the event that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly, and B the event that it would be a good idea to invest part of their Social Security taxes on their own

P(B) = 41%=0.41

A and B are independent

Hence P(both)=0.77(0.41) = 0.3157\\

the probability that a person agreed with both propositions

= Probability for both A and B

= P(A) P(B) since A and B are independent

= 0.3157

What is the vertex of the parabola?<br><br> A. (-1,0)<br> B. (0,-3)<br> C. (1,-4)<br> D. (3,0)
-BARSIC- [3]
The vertex of a parabola is its highest or lowest point. Here, it is the lowest point, which happens right at the bottom of the U-shape—at (1, –4). Therefore, the answer is C.

Each cube in this solid figure is a unit cube.
kaheart [24]

picture unclear         because it is to find the sum of consecutive numbers 1 to 100, you multiply the number of sets (50) by the sum of each set (101): 101(50)=5050.{\displaystyle 101(50)=5050.} So, the sum of consecutive number 1 through 100 is 5,050 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here 42% of annual health premium($5450)=*5450

                                                                     =$2289

This amount is being paid by the company means it is deducted amount in one year.

A ball is dropped from a height of 8 feet. If every time it bounces, it bounces 60% of its previous height, what is the total di
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

<h3>20feet</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial height of the ball = 8feet

If it bounces 60% of its previous height, its new height will be;

60% of 8

= 60/100 * 8

= 480/100

= 4.8 ft

If it bounces 60% of its current distance, new height will be expressed as;

60% of 4.8

= 0.6 * 4.8

= 2.88

The height of the ball will keep reducing and form a geometric progression of the form 8, 4.8, 2.88...

In order to get the total distance traveled by the ball, we need to calculate the sum to infinity of the sequence;

S∞ = a/1-r where;

a is the first term = 8

r is the common ratio

r = \frac{4.8}{8} = \frac{2.88}{4.8}\\r =  0.6

Substitute into the formula;

S∞ = a/1-r

S∞ = 8/1-0.6

S∞ = 8/0.4

S∞ = 20feet

Hence the total distance traveled by the ball is 20feet
