The given condition is an arithmetic sequence with the first term (a1) is 1 penny and the common difference (d) is 1 penny. A year that is not a leap year has 365 days (n). The arithmetic series (S) is calculated through formula,
 
                               S = (n/2) (2a1 + (n - 1) x d)

Substituting the known values,
 
                               S = (365/2) (2 x 1 + (365 - 1) x 1)
 
                               S = 66795 pennies

A dollar is 100 pennies. Therefore, at the end of the year, the total savings is $667.95.

The probability that a child will learn to swim before age 6 is 0.312. If you take a group of 12 children, what is the probabili
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The probability of 1 or less children from that group to learn how to swim before 6 years of age is 0.072

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to compute the probability of none of these 12 children learns to swim before 6 years of age. This is given by:

p(0) = (1 - 0.312)^(12) = 0.688^(12) = 0.01124

We now need to calculate the probability that one child learns to swim before 6 years of age.

p(1) = 12*0.312*(1 - 0.312)^(11) = 3.744*(0.688)^(11)

p(1) = 3.744*0.01634

p(1) = 0.0612

The probability of 1 or less children from that group to learn how to swim before 6 years of age is:

p = p(0) + p(1) = 0.01124 + 0.0612 = 0.07244

denis-greek [22]
In 1500 people of 200 lb each, the total weight would be 300000 lb.
Set up a proportion: 200lb/3.2*10^-5 = 300,000lb/x
(3.2*10^-5*300,000)/200 = x

Enter the values for the highlighted variables that show how to subtract the rational expressions correctly:
LenKa [72]

Answer:

a = 6

x^2 + 6x is equal to x(x+6)

b=2

Denominator and numerator of the first term are multiplied by x. 

c=6

Second term is multiplied by (x-6)/(x-6)

d=2

Now that they have the same denominator, the two terms are combined. 2 is the coefficient of the first term

e=6

In the same way as d is carried over from b, e is carried over from c. 

f = 6

2x - x + 6 = x + 6

g = 1 

We factor out the (x+6) from the numerator and denominator
