ome currently valued at £80,000. If the rate of inflation is correct:
a) What will Jean-Claude's gnome be worth after 1 year?


b) What is the common ratio of the geometric progression?


c) What will Jean-Claude's gnome be worth after 10 years?


d) It will take k years for the value of Jean-Claude's gnome to exceed £120,000. Find k.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a ) The worth of Jean-Claude's gnome after 1 year

= 80000 x 1.02

=  £81600

b ) common ratio of geometric progression

= 81600 / 80000

= 1.02

c )  worth after 10 years

= 80000 x 1.02¹⁰

= 80000 x 1.21899

= £97519.55

d )

120000 = 80000 x 1.02^k

1.5 = 1.02^k

ln1.5 = k ln 1.02

k = ln 1.5 / ln 1.02

= .4054 / .0198

= 20.47 years .

Find the iqr of 4 5 6 8 9 10 11 12
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The interquartile range is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ah, a throwback to interquartile range... let me help :)

4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12

First, you need to know how to use the IQR. The interquartile range is basically known as the process of subtracting the upper quartile and the lower quartile of a set of data. The lower quartile should be written as Q1, and the upper quartile would be labeled as Q3. This would make the midpoint (median) data set Q2, and the highest possible point would be labeled Q4. Next, you have to always understand what you are looking at. For example, let's split the set 5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 into groups. 5 and 6 would be Q1, 7 and 8 would be Q2, 9 and 10 would be Q3, and last but not least, 11 and 12 would be labeled as Q4. Now take Q1 and subtract it from Q3 and that is how you get your IQR.

The weight of oranges growing in an orchard is normally distributed with a mean weight of 6.5 oz. and a standard deviation of 1.
sergey [27]
Add 3 standard deviations above and below the mean to get the range in which 99.7% of the data in a normal distribution will fall
6.5 + 4.5 = 11
6.5 - 4.5 = 2
So 2 to 11 ounces would be the interval
