Answer:

Half of a ton

2/3 of the elevator are already full and the elevator already weighs 1/3 of ton.The elevator needs 1/3 more of people to make the elevator full so that would be half of 1/3 of a ton which is a sixth.So add 1/6 and 1/3 together ams you get 1/2.

Suppose your new business made a profit during the first year of $3000. If the profit increased 12% per year, find the total of

mariarad [96]

Answer:

Therefore the total of all profit earned by the end of of the the first 5 years is $19,058.542.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find total profit earned per year, we need to use the compound growth formula.

The compound growth formula:

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

A= Amount after t years

P= initial amount

r= rate of growth

t= time in year.

Given that,

New business made a profit during the first year of $3000.

If the profit increased 12% per year.

Here P= $3,000 and r =12%=0.12 , t=1 years

Plugging all value in the above formula:

$A=3000(1+0.12)^1$

=3000(1.12)

=$3360

Profit after 2 year is $3,360.

Now, P= $3,000 and r =12%=0.12 , t=3 years

$A=3000(1+0.12)^2$

=3000(1.12)²

=$3763.2

Similar the profit at 4 year is

$A=3000(1+0.12)^3$

=3000(1.12)³

=$4214.784

The profit at 5th year is

$A=3000(1+0.12)^4$

=3000(1.12)⁴

=$4720.558

Therefore the total of all profit earned by the end of of the the first 5 years is=$(3,000+3360+3763.2+4214.784+4720.558)

=$19,058.542

Oliver shot 8 free throws at practice, making 6 free throws and missing 2 free throws. If Oliver is equally likely to make a fre

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: Then you turn the 6 to a 4 and the 2 into a 4 also. Because Oliver wanted the free throw and the free throw he missed turn both equal so you divide 8 with 2 and get 4.

ddd [48]

<span>A correlation coefficient is a measure of the strength of dependence and correlation of a set of data. It shows how good is the fitted model to the data. It will have values ranging from -1.0 - 1.0. Having a coefficient that is the lower or the upper limit will tell you that the model best fit the data and a good correlation. However, as it goes farther from the limits then the correlation is to be a bad one.</span>
