Why is this false:

Luba_88 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

It is false that, if the national economy shrank at an annual rate of 9% per year for three consecutive years then the economy shrank by 27% over the 3-year period, because this percentage does not follow a linear path, but on the contrary, it is calculated exponentially: 9% of each year is calculated on the rest that remained after discounting 9% the previous year.

Thus, if the national economy has a value of 100, after three years it will not have a value of 79, but a value of 75.35, as it arises from the following calculation:

100 x 0.91 ^ 3 = X

100 x 0.753571 = X

75.35 = X

mars1129 [50]
The answer is 93 

If we sorted out the number of each hours, the sequence will look like this

57 _    69  _  81  _ x  _ 105   

(in which x is the fourth hour of work)


We can see from the sequence that each hours, the mailman add additional 12 letters.
(69 - 57 = 12)
(81 - 69 = 12)   . . . . proof


So, the amount of letters on the fourth hour would be:
81 letters  + 12 letters = 93 Letters

Three rats in a lab are injected a type of medicine. The independent probabilities for each rat exhibiting side effects are 0.5,
EleoNora [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four possible values of X: 0 rats show side effects, 1 rat shows side effects, 2 rats show side effects, or all 3 rats show side effects.

Probability X = 0:

P = (1 − 0.5) (1 − 0.4) (1 − 0.3)

P = 0.21

Probability X = 1:

P = (0.5) (1 − 0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (1 − 0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.44

Probability X = 2:

P = (0.5) (0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (0.5) (1 − 0.4) (0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.29

Probability X = 3:

P = (0.5) (0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.06
