You can solve this analytically to get
.. 55000*(1 +x/100)^10 = 108193
.. (1 +x/100)^10 = 108193/55000
.. 1 +x/100 = (108193/55000)^(1/10)
.. x = 100*((108193/55000)^(1/10) -1) ≈ 7.00
but I find it just as fast to have a graphing calculator do it.
The city's population is increasing 7% per year.
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of solving ten problems by Carl
Given
Total number of problems = 20
Number of problems studied by Carl = 15
Number of problems out of the 20 set of problem coming in test is 10
Case I - All ten problems come from the set of known 15 question
10/15 * 10/20 = 1/3
A ratio is used to describe how two or more quantities are related. For example, we might say that a fruit drink calls for sugar crystals to be mixed with water in a ratio of 2:6. This means that for every 2 scoops sugar crystals, there will need to be 6 ounces of water. If there were 200 scoops of sugar crystals, there would need to be 600 ounces of water.
To find the probability of both of these occurring, you will multiply the probability of choosing a blue marble by the probability of choosing a purple marble (with no replacement after the first one).
Probability of choosing a blue marble: 17/120
Probability of choosing a purple marble: 18/119
17/120 x 18/119 = 3/140
You will have a 3/140 chance of both of these occurring.
