Answer:

No, $9^2 +7^2 \neq 12^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$9^2 +7^2 = 81+ 49 =130...(1)$

$12^2 = 144...(2)$

From equations (1) & (2) it is obvious that:

$9^2 +7^2 \neq 12^2$

Thus, the given is not a right triangle.

Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track. Assuming he runs at a constant speed, how long does he take to

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

5 minutes to run 1 kilometer

Step-by-step explanation:

Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track.

6 times around a 400 m track

400 * 6 = 2400 meters

It take 12 minutes to run 2400 meters

2400 meters = 2400/1000 = 2.4km

distance = 2.4 km and time = 12 minutes

Now we find our constant speed

$Distance = speed * time$

2.4 = speed * 12

divide by 12 on both sides

speed = 0.2

so speed is 0.2 km per minute

Now we find out time when distance = 1km

Distance = speed * time

1 = 0.2 * t

divide by 0.2 on both sides

5 = t

So it take 5 minutes to run 1 kilometer

Answer:

$P(X=7)$

And using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=7)=(15C7)(0.23)^7 (1-0.23)^{15-7}=0.0271$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.23)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

And we want to find the following probability:

$P(X=7)$

And using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=7)=(15C7)(0.23)^7 (1-0.23)^{15-7}=0.0271$

Jacey obtains a 30-year 6/2 ARM at 4% with a 2/6 cap structure in the amount of $224,500. What is the monthly payment during the

beks73 [17]

In this case we have an ARM fixed for 6 years and adjust after the initial first 6 years every 2 years after. The basic idea behind a ARM is that the interest changes periodically, but since our ARM is fixed for 6 years, our going to calculate the monthly payment during the initial period using the formula: $m= \frac{P( \frac{r}{12}) }{1-(1+ \frac{r}{12})^{-12t} }$
where
$m$ is the monthly payment
$P$ is the amount
$r$ is the interest rate in decimal form
$t$ is the number years

First we need to convert our interest rate of 4% to decimal form by dividing it by 100%:
$\frac{4}{100} =0.04$
We also know from our question that $P=224500$ and $t=30$ , so lets replace those values into our formula to find the monthly payment:
$m= \frac{224500( \frac{0.04}{12}) }{1-(1+ \frac{0.04}{12})^{-(12)(30)} }$
$m=1071.80$

We can conclude that the monthly payment during the initial period is $1071.58<span />
