During the worst periods of hyperinflation in a certain country, the price of food increased at a rate of 30% per month. State w
Serhud [2]

Answer:

It was an exponential increase

In 3 months, the bill will be $285.61

Step-by-step explanation:

First, this scenario is exponential, because the price of food is increasing with a percentage, based on the price that it was the previous amount.

Next, to find what the bill will be in 3 months, an equation needs to be made representing the situation.

Use the standard exponential equation: y = ab^x, where a is the initial amount, b is the growth rate, and x is the amount of time.

Plug in the values we know:

y = 130(1.3)^3

Solve for y

y = 285.61

So, 3 months later, the bill will be $285.61

Suppose that two cards are randomly selected from a standard​ 52-card deck. ​(a) what is the probability that the first card is
Savatey [412]
(a) without replacement:
P(S)=13/52=1/4
P(SS)=(1/4)*(12/51)=1/17
Probability of selecting two spades without replacement is 1/17.

(b) with replacement
P(S)=13/52=1/4
P(SS)=(1/4)(13/52)=1/16
Probability of selecting two spades with replacement is 1/16.

Noralie is making a necklace using a total of 48 beads. All of the beads will be either blue or yellow. She plans to use 1/3 as
Morgarella [4.7K]
Since there are a total of 48 beads and each bead will either be blue or yellow, in order to find out how many of each colour bead she will use, do the following:

Divide 48 by 3 to get 16 yellow beads.

Now that you know how many yellow beads there are, just subtract that from 48:
48 - 16 = 32

Therefore, she will use 16 yellow beads and 32 blue beads.
