Answer:

- 27.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of earthquake = 0.0012

P(earthquake). = 0.0012

P(no earthquake) = 1 - p(earthquake) = 1 - 0.0012 = 0.9988

X ____ 60,000 ______ - 100

P(X) ___ 0.0012 _____ 0.9988

The expected value of the policy :

E(X) = Σx*p(x)

E(X) = (0.0012 * 60000) + (0.9988 * - 100)

E(X) = 72 - 99.88

E(X) = - 27.88

a grocer stacks apples in a pyramid-like stack whose rectangular base is 7 apples by 5 apples. each apple above the first level

g100num [7]

The arrangement of the apples in the stack is in a sequence that can be

used to find the number of apples in each row and in the stack.

Correct response:

The number of apples in the stack are <u>85 apples</u>

<h3>How to find the sum of a sequence</h3>

The given parameters are;

Dimensions of apples in the rectangular base = 7 apples by 5 apples

Number of apples on which each apple above rests = 4 apples

Required:

The number of apples in the stack.

Solution:

The dimensions, length and width of the apples in each row decreases

by 1 compared to the row on which the apple rests, as follows;

In the base, the dimension = 7 by 5

In the row directly above, the dimension = (7 - 1) by (5 - 1)

The number of apples sequence continues and is completed by a singles row of apples at the top, from which gives;

Number of apples in the stack = 7 × 5 + 6 × 4 + 5 × 3 + 4 × 2 + 3 × 1 = 85

The number of apples in the tack = <u>85 apples</u>

. Two bicyclists, Sarah and Emily, depart from the same location. Sarah heads N55°E at an average speed of 6 km/hr. Emily heads

Liula [17]

Answer:

The distance between them after 30 minutes is 6.5 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Sarah's speed = 6 km/hr = 1.6667 m/s

Emily's speed = 10 km/hr = 2.7778 m/s

The measure of angle between their bearings = $105^{o}$

After 30 minutes (1800 seconds);

distance = speed x time

Sarah would have covered a distance = 1.6667 x 1800

= 3000 m

= 3 km

Emily would have covered a distance = 2.7778 x 1800

= 5000 m

= 5 km

The distance between them, a, can be determined by applying the cosine rule;

$a^{2}$ = $b^{2}$ + $c^{2}$ - 2bcCos A

= $5000^{2}$ + $3000^{2}$ -2(5000 x 3000) Cos 105

= $5000^{2}$ + $3000^{2}$ -2(5000 x 3000) x (-0.2588)

= 2.5 x $10^{7}$ + 9 x $10^{6}$ + 7764000

= 41764000

a = $\sqrt{41764000}$

= 6462.5073

a = 6462.5 m

The distance between them after 30 minutes is 6.5 km.
