Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equity loan amount = $24,000.

percentage paid off = 20%

Required

The amount paid off

The amount paid off = 20% of the loan amount

Amount paid off = 20/100 * 24000

Amount paid off = 0.2 * 24000

Amount paid off = 4800

Hence the amount of the loan paid off is $4,800

Please help me I need this question done by tonight. The amount that a consultant charges for her work can be modeled using a li

nataly862011 [7]

Answer: The consultant earn $50 each hour.

Explanation:

It is given that for 4 hours of work, the consultant charges $400. For 5 hours of work, she charges $450. The amount that a consultant charges for her work can be modeled using a linear function.

If the linear function represents the amount earn by consultant in hours the the coordinates can be written as (4, 400) and (5, 450).

If we want to find how much money does the consultant earn each hour, so first we have to find the slope of linear function which passing through two points (4, 400) and (5, 450).

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{450-400}{5-4}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{50}{1}$

$\text{Slope}=50$

In the linear function the slope show the earning of consultant per hour, therefore consultant earn $50 each hour.

How would you convert an angle in degrees to an angle in radians?

Scilla [17]

For reference, one full circle is 360 degrees or 2pi radians.

If we were to convert 360 degrees to radians, we could set up the following equation:

360k = 2pi

where k is a constant. By solving for k, we can find what value we must multiply any angle in degrees by to get its radian counterpart.

Divide both sides by 360:

k = 2pi/360

Reduce:

k = pi/180

So to convert an angle from degrees to radians, multiply it by pi/180. For example, 120 degrees would be:

120 * pi/180 = 2pi/3 radians

What is the least common multiple of 4 and 12? O 4 O 12 O 24 o ) 48

densk [106]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Least common multiple means what is the smallest number that both numbers go into

List the prime factors

4= 2*2

12 = 2*2*3

The factors that are in needed to make both are 2 and 3

We need 2 of the 2's and 1 3

2*2*3 = 12

A study of long-distance phone calls made from General Electric's corporate headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, revealed the

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

a) 0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

b) 0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

c) 0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

d) 0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

e) They last at least 4.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 3.6, \sigma = 0.4$

(a) What fraction of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.6.

X = 4.2

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

X = 3.6

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{3.6 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5

0.9332 - 0.5 = 0.4332

0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

(b) What fraction of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

(c) What fraction of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

X = 5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 4.2

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

0.9998 - 0.9332 = 0.0666

0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

(d) What fraction of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

X = 5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 3

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{3 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.9998 - 0.0668 = 0.9330

0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

(e) As part of her report to the president, the director of communications would like to report the length of the longest (in duration) 4% of the calls. What is this time?

At least X minutes

X is the 100-4 = 96th percentile, which is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.96. So X when Z = 1.75.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$1.75 = \frac{X - 3.6}{0.4}$

$X - 3.6 = 0.4*1.75$

$X = 4.3$

They last at least 4.3 minutes

There are 13 gallons of lemonade at a party there are 12 adults and 6 children who will drink the lemonade if eatch person recei

nlexa [21]

The answer is 1.38 gallons
becuase 12 + 6 = 18
then 18 / 13 is 1.384615385
but you cant write that down so we round to the nearest hundreth and you get 1.38 as your final answer
