Answer:0.000810

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A committee of 3 members is formed using

5 Admin, 34 teachers, and 4 staff

Favorable outcomes are selecting 3 members as Administrators

total members =5+34+4=43

Probability is given by

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{\text{Favorable}}{\text{Total}}$

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{^5C_3}{^{43}C_3}=\dfrac{10}{43\times 41\times 7}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{10}{12,341}=0.000810$

Drag the tiles to the boxes to form correct pairs.<br> Match the pairs of equivalent expressions.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The following pairs/results are matched:

$5\left(2t+1\right)+\left(-7t+28\right)$ = $3t+33$
$3\left(3t-4\right)-\left(2t+10\right)$ = $7t-22$

$\left(4t-\frac{8}{5}\right)-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$ = $\frac{16t}{3}-\frac{23}{5}$

$\left(-\frac{9}{2}t+3\right)+\left(\frac{7}{4}t+33\right)$ = $-\frac{11}{4}t+36$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve all the expressions to match the results.

$5\left(2t+1\right)+\left(-7t+28\right)$

<em>Solving the expression</em>

$5\left(2t+1\right)+\left(-7t+28\right)$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a$

$5\left(2t+1\right)-7t+28$

$10t+5-7t+28$

$3t+33$

Therefore, $5\left(2t+1\right)+\left(-7t+28\right)$ = $3t+33$

$3\left(3t-4\right)-\left(2t+10\right)$

<em>Solving the expression</em>

$3\left(3t-4\right)-\left(2t+10\right)$

$9t-12-\left(2t+10\right)$

$9t-12-2t-10$

$7t-22$

Therefore, $3\left(3t-4\right)-\left(2t+10\right)$ = $7t-22$

$\left(4t-\frac{8}{5}\right)-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$

<em>Solving the expression</em>

$\left(4t-\frac{8}{5}\right)-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a$

$4t-\frac{8}{5}-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$

$4t-\frac{8}{5}-\left(-\frac{4t}{3}+3\right)$

$4t-\frac{8}{5}-3+\frac{4t}{3}$

As

$-3-\frac{8}{5}:\quad -\frac{23}{5}$ and $\frac{4t}{3}+4t:\quad \frac{16t}{3}$

So,

$4t-\frac{8}{5}-3+\frac{4t}{3}$ will become $\frac{16t}{3}-\frac{23}{5}$

Therefore, $\left(4t-\frac{8}{5}\right)-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$ = $\frac{16t}{3}-\frac{23}{5}$

$\left(-\frac{9}{2}t+3\right)+\left(\frac{7}{4}t+33\right)$

<em>Solving the expression</em>

$\left(-\frac{9}{2}t+3\right)+\left(\frac{7}{4}t+33\right)$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a$

$-\frac{9}{2}t+3+\frac{7}{4}t+33$

$\mathrm{Group\:like\:terms}$

$\frac{9}{2}t+\frac{7}{4}t+3+33$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:-\frac{9}{2}t+\frac{7}{4}t=-\frac{11}{4}t$

$-\frac{11}{4}t+3+33$

$-\frac{11}{4}t+36$

Therefore, $\left(-\frac{9}{2}t+3\right)+\left(\frac{7}{4}t+33\right)$ = $-\frac{11}{4}t+36$

Thus, the following pairs/results are matched:

$5\left(2t+1\right)+\left(-7t+28\right)$ = $3t+33$
$3\left(3t-4\right)-\left(2t+10\right)$ = $7t-22$

$\left(4t-\frac{8}{5}\right)-\left(3-\frac{4}{3}t\right)$ = $\frac{16t}{3}-\frac{23}{5}$

$\left(-\frac{9}{2}t+3\right)+\left(\frac{7}{4}t+33\right)$ = $-\frac{11}{4}t+36$

Find the amount of interest on $35,000 at 9.72% compounded monthly for 32 months

zhannawk [14.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

$10,308.92 interest earned

Step-by-step explanation:

The account balance is given by ...

A = P(1 +r/12)^n

where principal P earns interest at annual rate r compounded monthly for n months. In this case, the balance would be ...

A = $35,000(1 +0.0972/12)^32 = $45,308.92

The interest earned is the excess of the balance over the original investment:

interest = $45,308.92 -35,000 = $10,308.92
