Answer:
4/5 chance
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 numbers that fit the rule, 1, 3, 4, 5, since all of them are either odd or greater than 3. There will be a 4/5 chance of picking one.
Answer:
Q1:
Share of the daughter (x):
2x + x + x + $1,000 = $9,000
4x = $8,000
x = $2,000
Share of the wife:
= 2($2,000)
= $4,000
Share of the son:
= $2,000 + $1,000
= $3,000
Answer: wife, $4,000; son, $3,000; daughter, $2,000
Q2:
= 1/2x + $1,000
Answer: 1/2x + $1,000: expression for share of the son
Proof (the wife shares $4,000):
Share of wife (x):
x + 1/2x + 1/2x + $1,000 = $9,000
2x = $8,000
x = $4,000

N.B. I believe your question is saying that the price of a cup of coffee was $2.40 yesterday, and it rose to $2.65 today. Therefore, I will solve with these prices.
The percent increase is 10.41666666% (The 6 is repeating.).
First, you find the difference, or increase, between the two prices.
New price - Old price = Increase
$2.65 - $2.40 = $0.25
The difference between the two prices is $0.25. To find the percent increase, you want to divide the original price ($2.40) from the increase ($0.25) and multiply by 100.
Increase ÷ Original Price × 100 = % increase
0.25 ÷ 2.40 × 100 = 10.41666666%
The percent increase is 10.41666666% (The 6 is repeating.).
It would take 10.7 years.
The formula for continuously compounded interest is:

where P is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal number, and t is the number of years.
Using our information we have:

We want to know when it will double the principal; therefore we substitute 2P for A and solve for t:

Divide both sides by P:

Take the natural log, ln, of each side to "undo" e:

Divide both sides by 0.065:
