9514 1404 393

Answer:

  8.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth factor per year is 1.012, so in 500 years is ...

  1.012^500

The number of doublings is the solution to ...

  2^n = 1.012^500

Taking logarithms, we have ...

  n·log(2) = 500·log(1.012)

  n = 500·log(1.012)/log(2) ≈ 8.6046

About 8.6 doublings will take place in 500 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The directions tell you what you need to know. It is a matter of adding up the values shown and finding the missing number to make the total be -20. Of course, it works best to start with a row, column, or diagonal that has 4 numbers already.Then, you're only finding the 5th number.

You can start with either diagonal, column 1 or 4, and row 4 or 5. Filling the missing numbers in those spots (red) will let you find the remaining missing numbers (green, then blue).

The square at row 2, column 2 can be filled on the first round using the down-right diagonal. I have shown it as filled on the second round after row 5 column 2 is filled.

Using a spreadsheet can make this easier, because you can write formulas for the sums in each row, column, and diagonal. Then you're just making those sums be -20.

___

For example, consider the up-right diagonal. The sum of the given values, -6, 0, -4, -2, is -12. Then the spot at row 1, column 5 must be filled with -8 to make the sum be -20.

There are 125 people and three door prizes. How many ways can three door prizes of $50 each be distributed? How many ways can do
UkoKoshka [18]

We have been given that there are 125 people and three door prizes.

In the first part we need to figure out how many ways can three door prizes of $50 each be distributed?

Since there are total 125 people and there are three identical door prices, therefore, we need to use combinations for this part.

Hence, the required number of ways are:

_{3}^{125}\textrm{C}=\frac{125!}{122!3!}=\frac{125*124*123}{1*2*3}=317750

In the next part, we need to figure out how many ways can door prizes of $5,000, $500 and $50 be distributed?

Since we have total 125 people and there are three prices of different values, therefore, the required number of ways can be figured out by using permutations.

_{3}^{125}\textrm{P}=\frac{125!}{122!}=125*124*123=1906500
