Mathematics

Answer:

  • 13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial value = $500000
  • Depreciation rate = 5.41% each year
  • Target value = 1/2*$500000 = $250000
  • Number of years = x

Depreciation can be expressed as function:

  • d(x) = 500000*((100 - 5.41)/100)^x
  • d(x) = 500000*0.9459^x

Having the final value of $250000, we can find x:

  • 250000 = 500000*0.9459^x
  • 0.5 = 0.9459^x
  • log 0.5 = x log 0.9459
  • x =  log 0.5 / log 0.9459
  • x = 12.46 ≈ 13 years rounded

The mean of the temperatures in the chart is 24° with a standard deviation of 4°. Which temperature is within one standard devia
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

22°

Step-by-step explanation:

If the mean is m and the standard deviation is s, then we can say that the temperatures that fall <em><u>within 1 standard deviation of the mean</u></em> will be:

m - s < temperatures < m + s

To we take the sum of mean and standard deviation: 24 + 4 = 28

and, the different of mean and standard deviation: 24 - 4 = 20

So, <em>the temperature that is in between 20 and 28 is the temperature within 1 standard deviation of the mean</em>.

This is the third answer, 22°

Someone help me with these math problems please !! (It is not obligatory to put the explanation so I save time and you will answ
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

it is directly there in the problem description.

f(x) = 1.8x - 10

g(x) = -4

so, for f(x)=g(x) that automatically means

1.8x - 10 = -4

1.8x = 6

x = 6/1.8 = (6/1) / (18/10) = 10×6 / 18×1 = 60/18 = 10/3
