Step-by-step explanation:

collin is correct and incorrect at the same time. when you solve this, you start with adding like terms.

10x and -11x will be added together to be -1x, after we figure this out, we solve.

-1x+7<-20

-7 -7

-1x<-27

/-1 /-1

x<27

after you solve, you notice that x is less than 27. collin has the correct answer for solving the equation, but if were looking on a more technical note, he would be incorrect because he said the answer is 27, when the answer is actually less than 27. therefore, collin has solved the inequality correctly, but he has said the answer incorrectly

Evaluate the given expression. Subscript 5 Baseline P Subscript 2 a. 40 c. 25 b. 32 d. 20

Leto [7]

Answer:

d. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question implies 5 permutation 2, i.e $_{5}$ $P_{2}$ .

But,

$_{n}$ $P_{r}$ = $\frac{n!}{(n - r)!}$

So that for $_{5}$ $P_{2}$ , n = 5 and r = 2.

$_{5}$ $P_{2}$ = $\frac{5!}{(5 - 2)!}$

= $\frac{5!}{3!}$

= $\frac{5*4*3*2!}{3*2!}$

Cancel out 3 and 2 with respect to the numerator and denominator.

$_{5}$ $P_{2}$ = 5 * 4

= 20

Therefore,

$_{5}$ $P_{2}$ = 20

So that the correct option is D.

Danny decided to invest his $500 tax refund rather than spending it. He found a bank that would pay him 4% interest, compounded

Blababa [14]

Present value, PV = $500
Future value, FV = 2*PV = 2*500 = $1,000
Rate, r = 4% = 0.04
Compounding times in a year, n = 4 (compounded quarterly)
Time, t = ??

The future value expression is stated as:
FV = PV (1+r/n)^nt

Substituting;
1000 = 500 (1+0.04/4)^4t
2 = (1.01)^4t
ln 2 = 4t ln 1.01
0.6931 = 4t* 0.00995
0.6931 = 0.0398t
t = 17.414 years

Time required for the amount to double is 17.41 years.
