Answer:
54 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Joyce age = x
Alex age = y
3x = 2y - - - (1)
y - 9 = 2(x - 9)
y - 9 = 2x - 18
-9 + 18 = 2x - y
9 = 2x - y
y = 2x - 9 - - (2)
3x = 2y
3x = 2(2x - 9)
3x = 4x - 18
18 = 4x - 3x
18 = x
Hence,
Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years
Answer:
<em>In the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Division by Sharing</u>
A certain amount M can be evenly split among n parties by performing a division M/n.
The first group of six friends earned $45 and they split it evenly, i.e. the same amount goes to each member. Each of them received $45/6= $7.50 apiece.
The second group of four friends won the second-place prize of $35 and they split it evenly also. Each member received $35/4=$8.75.
By comparing both numbers, we see that 8.75 is a bigger fraction of 35 that 7.50 is of 45. Each member from the second-place price will receive more money than the first group.
We can conclude in the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money
Answer:
0.7429
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Of the 721 students at the college, 299 of them apply for loans when entering graduate school.
So p = proportion of students applying for loans = 
Each student is independent of the other and there are two outcomes
Hence out of 45 students the no of students who apply for loans say X is binomial with n =45 and p = 0.415
the probability that more than 16 of them apply for loans
=
=0.7429
3275 = x * (1+0.075/12)^(12*10)
3275 = x * (2.11206463)
x= 3275/2.11206463 = 1550.6154
x=1550.62
