Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. A complete question is in the form:

A letter is chosen at random from the letters of the word EXCELLENT. Find the probability that letter chosen is i) a vowel ii) a consonant.

Solution:

The total number of letters found in the word EXCELLENT = 9

i) The number of vowel letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {E, E, E} = 3

Hence, probability that letter chosen is a vowel = number of vowels / total number of letters = 3 / 9 = 1 / 3

probability that letter chosen is a vowel = 1/3 = 0.333 = 33.3%

ii) The number of consonant letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {X, C, L, L, N, T} = 6

Hence, probability that letter chosen is a consonant = number of consonant / total number of letters = 6 / 9 = 2 / 3

probability that letter chosen is a consonant = 2/3 = 0.667 = 66.7%

Answer:

The approximate monthly rate of growth is 1.24%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the future value formula

$F=P(1+r)^t$

we have

$r=16\%=16/100=0.16$ ----> annual interest rate

$F=P(1+0.16)^t$

$F=P(1.16)^t$

Find the approximate monthly rate of growth

Remember that

$1\ year=12\ months$

Divide the number of periods t by 12

$F=P(1.16)^{\frac{t}{12}}$

Applying power rules property

$F=P(1.16^\frac{1}{12})^t$

$F=P(1.0124)^t}$

$1.0124-1=0.0124$

Convert to percentage

$0.0124*100=1.24\%$

therefore

The approximate monthly rate of growth is 1.24%

A two-digit number from 10 to 99, inclusive, is chosen at random. What is the probability that this number is divisible by 5?

SashulF [63]

The correct answer to this question is 1/5. To solve this, since 90 numbers exist in the range from 10 to 99, and 18 of them are divisible by 5, place these two numbers into the formula for probability.

Probability = target outcomes / total outcomes = 18 / 90
= 1/5

Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
