Answer:
2000(1+5/100)^12 = 3591.712652
The probability 2/3 means that there are 2 events we are interested in (which probability to happen we calculate) and there are 3 total events that may happen.
The probability 2/3 is equal to the probability 2/3*2/2=4/6.
An possible outcome would be : The probability that the side of the backgammon can be divided with 8 (there are 4 possibilities: 8, 16, 2 and 64).
Cost= (5.50d+6.00p) +6.50
Coefficients: 5.50 and 6.00
Constant: 6.50
Variables: d and p
Represent and then add up these consecutive, positive, even integers:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 116
Then 4x + 12 = 116, or 4x = 104. Then x=26.
First integer is 26; second is 28; third is 30; fourth is 32.
Add these up. If the sum = 116, you'll know these answers are correct.
Since they are FEWER than 30 total cones, the sum of x small cones and y large one must be LESS THAN 30: x+y <30
He needs AT LEAST a dozen (12), so that means that 12 will work or more than 12:
