Answer:

r = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, solve for r by isolating the variable. Whatever you do to one side, do to the other.

1) First, simplify the right side by combining like terms. Subtract the coefficients of the terms with the same variables. Subtract 5r by 4r.

$60 = 5r-4r + 14\\60 = r + 14$

2) Now, finally isolate r by subtracting both sides by 14.

$60 = r + 14\\46 = r$

So, r = 46.

Answer:

a) Option D) 0.75

b) Option D) 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Percentage of students who choose Western riding = 35%

$P(w) = 0.35$

Percentage of students who choose dressage= 45%

$P(d) = 0.45$

Percentage of students who choose jumping = 50%

$P(j) = 0.50$

Percentage of students who choose both dressage and jumping = 20%

$P(d \cap j) = 0.20$

Percentage of students who choose Western and dressage = 10%

$P(w \cap d) = 0.10$

Percentage of students who choose Western and jumping = 0%

$P(w \cap j) = 0$

Thus, we can say

$P(w \cap j \cap d) = 0$

Formula:

$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$

a) P(student chooses dressage or jumping)

$P(d \cup j) = P(d) + P(j) -p(d \cap j)\\= 0.45 + 0.50-0.20 = 0.75$

b) P(student chooses neither dressage nor Western riding)

$= 1 - P(d \cup w)\\= 1 - (P(d) + P(w) - P(d \cap w))\\= 1 - (0.45 + 0.35 - 0.10)= 0.3$

Sam has purchased a $30,000 car for his business. The car depreciates 30% every year. What is the explicit formula for this sequ

Step2247 [10]

If your just figuring out how much the car depreciated just by driving off the lot new...1st year.
$30,000×.30=$9,000

$30,000- $9,000=$21,000.

just take the brand new value of the car multiplied by the .30% of the 1st depreciation...take that answer ($9,000) and subtract it from your orginal value of $31,000.

which gives you $21,000
