Answer: The fifth month; By April Jordan would have saved more than enough to buy a new phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dec $5

Jan $10

Feb $20

Mar $40

Apr $80

Dec + Jan = $15($5+$10)

Dec+ Jan + feb = $35($5+$10+$20=$35)

Dec+ Jan + feb + mar = $75 ($5+$10+$20+$40=$75)

Dec+ Jan + feb + mar + apr = $155

($5+$10+$20+$40+$80=$155)

Answer: At the Month May Jordan as able to get enough money to buy the phone.

Work:

December:$5

January:$10

February:$20

March:$40

April:$80

May:<em><u>$160 <--Answer</u></em>

____________________________________________________________In the problem Jordan saves $5 at December, then at January Jordan saved $10 which is twice as December's saved money amount. February, Jordan saved $20, which is twice as January's saved money amount. March is $40, which is twice as February's saved money amount. For April it is $80, which is twice as March's money amount, May is $160 which is twice as April's money amount. Or another way to say this is by starting at $5. Then, keep multiplying by 2 for each month until you get $150 or more. When you do, stop at the month that gets you $150 or more. When i did this exact method, I got $160 on the Month of May. $160 is more than enough for Jordan to buy his phone. So the month May is the correct answer where Jordan can get enough money for his phone.

ella [17]

Answer:

0.216

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a certain new type of business succeeds 60% of the time.

3 such businesses   are tested for success.

Since these three businesses open (where they do not compete with each other, so it is reasonable to believe that their relative successes would be independent). we can say X no of successful businesses is Binomial

with p = 0.6 and n =3

Required probability

=The probability that all 3 businesses succeed is:

= P(X=3)\\= 0.6^3\\= 0.216

PLEASE HELP!<br>Calculate $40^{13} \pmod{85}.$
SVEN [57.7K]
In this type of calculations, we decompose 13 by checking the lowest powers of the base, that is 40. for example we check 40^2, or 40^3 and compare it to 85

Notice

40*40*40=64,000

so we check how many time does 85 fit into 64,000:

64,000/85=752.94

85*753=64,005;       64000-64,005=-5

this means that 

40^{3} =-5\pmod{85}

thus

40^{13} =40^{3*4+1}={(40^{3})}^{4}*40=(-5)^{4}*40 \pmod{85}=\\\\625*40\pmod{85}=(7*85+30)*40\pmod{85}=30*40\pmod{85}\\\\=1200\pmod{85}=(14*85+10)\pmod{85}=10\pmod{85}


Answer: 10 (mod85)

Remark, the set of all solutions is:

{......-75, 10, 95, .....}, that is 85k +10

Identify the factors of x2 + 16y2.
BabaBlast [244]

The way to find the factores is by seeking the polonomial's roots, or zeros!

To find the roots, we set the polinomial equation to zero:

x^2+16y^2=0

Then we solve this equation:

x^2=-16y^2

This is only true, if x=y=0.
