your don't see what went wrong ?

Tyrell worked on

16 - 2(4 + 3x)

what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.

as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.

so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.

so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.

therefore, the correct simplification looks like

16 - 8 - 6x

8 - 6x or -6x + 8

Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up

10x - 3(4x + 1)

10x - 12x - 3

10x - 12x = -2x

I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.

so, the result is

-2x - 3

Jimmy invests $2500 in an account with a 5% interest rate, making no other deposits or withdrawals. What will Jimmy’s account ba

Alik [6]

Answer:

We conclude that the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $2500 at a rate of 5% per year compounded 6 times per year over 8 years is $3723.38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Principle P = $2500

Interest rate r = 5% = 0.05

Time period t = 8 years

To determine

Accrue Amount A = ?

Using the compound interest equation

$A\:=\:P\left(1\:+\:\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

where:

A represents the Accrue Amount

P represents the Principal Amount

r represents the interest rate

t represents the time period in years

n represents the number of compounding periods per unit t

Important tip:

Given that the interest is compounded 6 times each year, therefore, the value of n = 6.

now substituting P = 2500, r = 0.05, t = 8 and n = 6 in the equation

$A\:=\:P\left(1\:+\:\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

$A=2500\left(1+\frac{0.05}{6}\right)^{\left(6\right)\left(8\right)}$

$\:A=2500\left(1+\frac{0.05}{6}\right)^{48}$

$A=2500\times 1.48935$ ∵ $\left(1+\frac{0.05}{6}\right)^{48\:\:}=1.48935$

$A=\:3723.38$ $

Therefore, we conclude that the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $2500 at a rate of 5% per year compounded 6 times per year over 8 years is $3723.38.

Pair (3,11) should be removed because the domain x should never be repeated in a function.

A couple book a cruise to Alaska that promises to refund 100 per day of rain on the seven day cruise up to a maximum of 300. The

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 9463.394

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

A couple book a cruise to Alaska that promises to refund 100 per day of rain on the seven day cruise up to a maximum of 300.

It is possible that the couple won't be able to refund up 100 per day or more than 100 per day.

SO; let assume that the refund payment happens to be 0, 100,200, 300

Let X be the total refund payment on the seven day cruise.

We can say X = 0, if there is no rain on all 7 days.

$P(X = 0) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 0) = _7C_o * 0.2^0 * (1-0.2)^{7-0$

$P(X = 0) =1 * 1* (1-0.2)^{7$

$P(X = 0) =(0.8)^{7$

$P(X = 0) =0.2097152$

If it rains on any one day; then X = 100

$P(X = 100) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 100) = _7C_1 * 0.2^1 * (1-0.2)^{7-1$

$P(X = 0) =7 * 0.2* (1-0.2)^{6$

$P(X = 100) =7* 0.2* (0.8)^{6$

$P(X = 100) =0.3670016$

if it rains on any two day ; then X = 200

$P(X = 200) = _nC_x * P^x * (1 - P)n-x$

$P(X = 200) = _7C_2 * 0.2^2 * (1-0.2)^{7-2$

$P(X = 200) = 21 * 0.2^2 * (0.8)^{5$

$P(X = 200) = 0.2752512$

if it rains on any three day or more than that ; then X = 300

$P(X \ge 300) = 1 - P(X < 300) \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 1 - [P(X = 0) + P(X = 100) + P(X = 200)] \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 1 - [0.2097152 + 0.3670016 + 0.2752512] \\ \\ P(X \ge 300) = 0.148032$

Now; we have our probability distribution function as:

P(X = 0) = 0.2097152

P(X = 100) = 0.3670016

P(X = 200) = 0.2752512

P(X = 300) = 0.148032

In order to determine the variance of the refund payment to the couple; we use the formula:

variance of the refund payment to the couple $[Var X] =E [X^2] - (E [X])^2$

where;

$E[X^2] = \sum x^2 \times p \\ \\ E[X^2] = 0^2 * 0.2097152 + 100^2 * 0.3670016 + 200^2 * 0.2752512 + 300^2 * 0.148032 \\ \\ E[X^2] = 0 + 3670.016 + 11010.048+ 13322.88 \\ \\ E[X^2] =28002.944$

$(E [X]) = \sum x * p\\ \\ (E [X]) = 0 * 0.2097152 + 100 * 0.3670016 + 200 * 0.2752512 + 300 * 0.148032 \\ \\ (E [X]) = 0 + 36.70016 + 55.05024 + 44.4096\\ \\ (E [X]) = 136.16 \\ \\ (E [X])^2 = 136.16^2 \\ \\ (E [X])^2 = 18539.55$

NOW;

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 28002.944 - 18539.55

the variance of the refund payment to the couple = 9463.394

Bryan has a square parcel of land that is 120 yards long and 120 yards wide. The land is planted with Bermuda grass and surround

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The diagonal fencing will be the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 120yds long so:

h=√2(120^2))

h=√28800 yd

And the surrounding fencing will just be four times the side length of 120yds so:

s=480yd

So the total fencing needed is:

f=480+√28800 yards

f≈649.71 yd (to nearest hundredth of a yard) which is

f≈650 yds (to nearest whole yard)

But, I wasn't sure, if they just want the diagonal fencing needed then it is just:

f=√28800

f≈170 yds (to nearest yard)
