Answer:

410.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the initial quantity, Q= 6200

Decay rate, r = 5.5% per month

So, the value of quantity after 1 month, q_1 = Q- r \times Q

q_1 = Q(1-r)\cdots(i)

The value of quantity after 2 months, q_2 = q_1- r \times q_1

q_2 = q_1(1-r)

From equation (i)

q_2=Q(1-r)(1-r)  \\\\q_2=Q(1-r)^2\cdots(ii)

The value of quantity after 3 months, q_3 = q_2- r \times q_2

q_3 = q_2(1-r)

From equation (ii)

q_3=Q(1-r)^2(1-r)

q_3=Q(1-r)^3

Similarly, the value of quantity after n months,

q_n= Q(1- r)^n

As 4 years = 48 months, so puttion n=48 to get the value of quantity after 4 years, we have,

q_{48}=Q(1-r)^{48}

Putting Q=6200 and r=5.5%=0.055, we have

q_{48}=6200(1-0.055)^{48} \\\\q_{48}=410.32

Hence, the value of quantity after 4 years is 410.32.

Molodets [167]
D. 35 is the answer. Since we know that 14=2k based on the knowledge given in the first part of the equation, we can solve for K. We learn that K=7. Then, we can substitute K into the second equation: y=(7)(5) which is 35.

ozzi

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the best point estimate for the average number of credit hours per semester for all students at the local college is 14.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of the sample:

14.8 credit hours per semester.

So

By the Central Limit Theorem, the best point estimate for the average number of credit hours per semester for all students at the local college is 14.8.
