Answer:

1109

Step-by-step explanation:

an = d (n - 1) + c

an = what you're looking for

n = term position

d = the common difference, in your case, 16

c = first term of the sequence, or -27

a₇₂ = 16(72 - 1) + -27 = 1109

A retailer allowed 12% discount and sold a T-shirt at a loss of Rs 16. If he had sold it at 10% discount he would have gained Rs

Murrr4er [49]

Answer: Marked Prixe = Rs. 1800

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the marked price be M

1) A retailer allowed 12% discount and sold a T-shirt at a loss of Rs 16.

SP = 0.88M

CP - SP = 16

CP = 16 + SP

CP = 16 + 0.88M

2) If he had sold it at 10% discount he would have gained Rs 20.

SP = 0.9M

SP - CP = 20

0.9M = 20 + CP

CP = 0.9M - 20

16 + 0.88M = 0.9M - 20

0.9M - 0.88M = 20+16

0.02M = 36

36 = 0.02M

M = 1800

Please answer this, thanks.

First, put it into point-slope form.

Find the slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-6-(-2)/(2-1)
m=(-6+2)/1
m=-4/1
m=-4

Now, put it into point-slope:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=-4(x-(-6)
y-2=-4(x+6)
y-2=-4x-24

Slope intercept form: y= mx+b

Add 2 to the other side.

y=-4x-22 <== the answer

I hope this helps!

The First Chicago Bank is reviewing its service charges and interest-paying policies on checking accounts. The daily balance of

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The percentage of the bank's customers carry daily balances between $700 and $1,000 is 65.7%.

The minimum daily balance on which it should be willing to pay interest is $1,198.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution with mean = $800 and standard deviation = $150.

a) We can calculate this value with the standard normal distribution, calculating the z-value for $700 and $1,000.

$z_1=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} =\frac{700-800}{150}= \frac{-100}{150} =-0.67\\\\\\z_2=\frac{1,000-800}{150}=\frac{200}{150}=1.33\\\\\\P(700$

The percentage of the bank's customers carry daily balances between $700 and $1,000 is 65.7%.

b) We must calculate from what amount only 6% of the accounts remain.

This is done by solving:

$P(z>x)=0.06$

This happens for a z-value of z=2.652.

This corresponds to a amount of $1,198.

$x=\mu+z*\sigma=800+2.652*150=800+398=1,198$

The minimum daily balance on which it should be willing to pay interest is $1,198.
