Answer:

The total number of ways are 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We need to write 3-letter "words" from the letters of "Adelphi" so that the first and last letters are vowels.

The number of letters in "Adelphi" = 7

The number of vowels are = 3

It is given that the first and last letters are vowels.

For first letter we have 3 choices, and for the last letter we have 2 choices as repetition is not allowed.

If we have selected first and last letter that means now we have 5 letters for the middle letter. (7-2=5)

So the number of possible choices for the 2nd letter is 5.

Hence, the total number of ways are: 3×5×2 = 30 ways

Ahmad just put some money into a cd that pays 11.3% interest compounded semiannually according to the rule of 72 in approximatel
lilavasa [31]
The "rule of 72" says that the doubling time in years is approximately 72 divided by the interest rate in percent. To make the money grow by a factor of 4 requires that it double twice, so will take twice as long as the period to double once.
  2×72/11.3 ≈ 12.7 . . . . years

_____
The "rule of 72" is an approximation. The actual quadrupling time for this interest rate and compounding is about 12.6 years. (The actual product of doubling time and nominal interest rate is about 71.25.)

Find the point of a line segment with endpoints at (4,-4) and (10,6)
Daniel [21]
Since this is a line it has a constant velocity or slope, and the line can be expressed as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept  (the value of y when x=0)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(6--4)/(10-4)

m=10/6

m=5/3, using any point we can then find the y-intercept, I'll use (4,-4)

-4=5(4)/3+b

-4=(20+3b)/3

-12=20+3b

-32=3b

-32/3=b so our line is:

y=(5x-32)/3

So there are infinite points on the line segment defined by the equation above on the interval of x=[4,10]

A point?  How about the midpoint...x=(4+10)/2=7

y(7)=(5*7-32)/3=1

(7,1)

Doug entered a canoe race. He rowed 3 1/2 miles in 1/2 hour. What is his average speed in miles per hour ?
Alex787 [66]
3 1/2 miles = 7/2 miles
1/2 hours= 30 minutes
So,
In 30 mins, travelled 7/2 miles
In 1 min, travelled 7/2 ÷ 30= 7/2× 1/30 = (7×1)/(2×30) = 7/60 miles
In 60 mins, travelled (7×60)/60 miles = 420/60 miles = 7 miles.
Hence, the speed is 7 miles per hour.
