Answer:

7.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth/decay is modeled as:

A = P(1+r)^t

where A is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the rate, and t is time.

If t = 0 represents 2015, and t = 2 represents 2017, then:

26000 = P(1+r)^0

30000 = P(1+r)^2

(1+r)^0 = 1, so P = 26000.  Substituting:

30000 = 26000(1+r)^2

1.154 = (1+r)^2

1.074 = 1+r

r = 0.074

The rate of increase is 7.4%.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Step 1: Address input parameters & values.

Input parameters & values:

The fraction number = 37/99

Step 2: Write it as a decimal

37/99 = 0.3737

0.3737 is the decimal representation for 37/99

Answer is 0.3737 repeating.

Determine the marginal distribution of Gender. In paragraph form, how you calculated the marginal distribution. Include your cal
Furkat [3]

The marginal distribution for gender tells you the probability that a randomly selected person taken from this sample is either male or female, regardless of their blood type.

In this case, we have total sample size of 714 people. Of these, 379 are male and 335 are female. Then the marginal probability mass function would be

\mathrm{Pr}[G = g] = \begin{cases} \dfrac{379}{714} \approx 0.5308 & \text{if }g = \text{male} \\\\ \dfrac{335}{714} \approx 0.4692 & \text{if } g = \text{female} \\\\ 0 & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}

where G is a random variable taking on one of two values (male or female).

I need how you found the answers?

Answer:

2x + 6 = -18

x + 1 = -11

3x = -36

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the solution! Then you can create your own equations

2x+9=-15

2x=-24

x=-12

Thus u need solutions with:

x = -12

Knowing the equation of a line as:

y = mx + b

we can can start by making y = -12 (our solution)

mx + b = -12

Now we can pick a value for m and b by adding and miltiplying on both sides

We do this to keep both sides equal.

if we make m = 2 and b = 3:

2x + mb = -12*m + 2b

2x + 6 = -24 + 6

2x + 6 = -18

Solving this we also get x = -12, as we expect.

An alternative way to think about it is to imagine that we start with a simple equation and make it more complex. We have our solution:

x = -12  => lets add a b value!

x + b = -12 + b => Lets add a slope (m)

xm + bm = -12m + bm

Giving values for this can give you multiple equation of the same solution.

General Formula:

m(x+b) = m(y+b)

mx + bm = my + bm
