Answer:
77 purple counters
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 5+7=12 ratio units, so each stands for 132/12 = 11 counters. The 7 ratio units representing the purple counters stand for ...
11 × 7 = 77 purple counters
3.04 , 3.14 , 3.4 , 4.03 , 4.4
Assuming that each marble can be picked with equal probability, we notice that there is a total of
marbles, of which 2 are red.
So, the probability of picking a red marble is
In fact, as in any other case of (finite) equidistribution, we used the formula

Answer:
a. 0.81
b. v = 28000(0.81^n)
c. 2757.36
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The growth factor is 1 more than the growth rate. Here, the growth rate is -19% (per year), so the growth factor, the multiplier, is ...
1 -0.19 = 0.81
__
b. The equation sets value equal to the original value multiplied by the growth factor to the power of the number of years:
value = (original value) × (growth factor)^n
v = 28000(0.81^n)
__
c. For n=11, this is ...
v = 28000(0.81^11) ≈ 2757.36
The value of the truck after 11 years is about $2757.
