Answer:

D. About 24 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounding is the means the future value of an amount saved today while discounting means the present value of a future amount.

In other words, we discount to know the present value of $1 in the future while we compound to know the future worth of $1 saved today.

Let the value of the investment be x. if it is expected to double in n years then using the compound interest formula

fv = pv(1 + r)^n

where fv and pv are the future and present values respectively and n is the time, r is the growth rate

2x = x(1 + 0.03)^n

2 = (1.03)^n

log 2 = log (1.03)^n

= n log 1.03

n = log 2/ log 1.03

n = 23.44

This is approximately 24 years hence option D is right

Assume that 200 babies are born to 200 couples treated with the XSORT method of gender selection that is claimed to make girls m
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

a) test statistic = 2.12

b) p-value = 0.017

c) we reject the Null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data :

N = 200

girls (x) = 115 , Boys = 85

p = x / n = 115 / 200 = 0.575

significance level ( ∝ ) = 0.1

<em>aim : test whether the proportion of girls births after the treatment is greater than 50% that occurs without any treatment </em>.

<u>A) Determine the test statistic </u>

H0 : p = 0.5

Ha : p > 0.5

to determine the test statistic we will apply the z distribution at ( ∝ ) = 0.1

Z - test statistic = ( 0.575 - 0.5)  / \sqrt{0.5*0.5 / 200}  = 2.12

<u>b) determine the p-value</u>

The P-value can be determined using the normal standard table

P-value = 1 - p(Z< 2.12 )  =  1 - 0.9830 = 0.017

c) Given that the p value ( 0.017 ) < significance level ( 0.1 )

we will reject the H0 because there is evidence showing that proportion of girls birth is > 50%

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
Oksanka [162]
The statement is true.

P(A|B) is the probability of occurrence of event A, provided that(given that) event B has already occurred.

This is known as conditional probability. In conditional probability, the event on right side of the vertical bar (which is B in this case) is given to have already occurred (either we assume this, or some evidence is given about this) and we calculate the probability of event on left of the vertical bar (which is A in this case) based on this information. The formula of condition probability is:

P(A|B)= \frac{P(A*B)}{P(B)} 

P(A*B) indicates the probability of intersection of event A and B.

So the correct answer is TRUE.

Select all that apply.
Lelechka [254]

Answer: The second option and the third option are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the line in slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where <em>m </em>is the slope and <em>b </em>is the y-intercept.

By definition, the y-intercept in a direct variation is 0.

Therefore, substituting m=-3 and b=0 into the equation, you obtain:

y=-3x+0

Then, the equation is:

y=-3x

As this is a line, it is a linear function.

Therefore, the second option and the third option are true.

Whoever answers the questions correctly gets brainlist

Answer:

2. B

3. B

4. 2(7k+5h)

5. $325

Step-by-step explanation:

2) "X decreased by the sum of 2x + 5" Decreased means to be lowered, so that means this problem has subtraction in it. It also says x is being decreased BY the sum of 2x + 5 so that means 2x + 5 needs to be solved, which calls for parentheses. B best fits the description.

3) It is B because if you distribute the 8 to 2a and 3b, you'll get 16a and 24b, which is the given expression.

4) The given expression is 10h + 14k and in the equivalent expression, you are given 5h. To get from 10 to 5, you must divide by 2. This tells you that 2 is being distributed, so you put 2 before the parentheses. Since you divided 10 by 2, you want to do the same to 14, which is 7. Therefore, it is 2(7k+5h).

5) You are given the hourly charge, which is $25. This means that they charge $25 per hour/for every hour. You want to find the cost for 13 hours, so you multiply the hourly charge by 13 hours. 25 x 13 = 325.

5x-3x(26x-7x-28x) systems of equation
labwork [276]

Simplifying
5x + 2(8x + -9) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
5x + 2(-9 + 8x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-9 * 2 + 8x * 2) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)
5x + (-18 + 16x) = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 5x + 16x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Combine like terms: 5x + 16x = 21x
-18 + 21x = 3(x + 4) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 3(4 + x) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (4 * 3 + x * 3) + -5(2x + 7)
-18 + 21x = (12 + 3x) + -5(2x + 7)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + -5(7 + 2x)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (7 * -5 + 2x * -5)
-18 + 21x = 12 + 3x + (-35 + -10x)

Reorder the terms:
-18 + 21x = 12 + -35 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 12 + -35 = -23
-18 + 21x = -23 + 3x + -10x

Combine like terms: 3x + -10x = -7x
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving
-18 + 21x = -23 + -7x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7x' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 21x + 7x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: 21x + 7x = 28x
-18 + 28x = -23 + -7x + 7x

Combine like terms: -7x + 7x = 0
-18 + 28x = -23 + 0
-18 + 28x = -23

Add '18' to each side of the equation.
-18 + 18 + 28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0
0 + 28x = -23 + 18
28x = -23 + 18

Combine like terms: -23 + 18 = -5
28x = -5

Divide each side by '28'.
x = -0.1785714286

Simplifying
x = -0.1785714286
