Answer:  303.870087962229

Simplify ≈303.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Grows 9.5%→r=0.095 Divide by 100

Grows every 2 decades: exponent of t2

(where t is in decades)

Write a function:

f(t)=240(1+0.095) ^t/2 Percent change every 2 decades

52 years→52/10→5.2 decades There are 10 years in a decade

Plug in t=5.2

f(5.2)=240(1+0.095) 5.2/2

Answer:  303.870087962229

≈303.87

Round to the nearest hundredth

You and a friend are playing a best-of-three series (first to win 2 games wins the series). You are a stronger player and have a
mariarad [96]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Given that probability of you winning each game = 0.68

And probability of you winning next game = 0.81

Your friend's chance of winning/you losing would be = 1-0.68= 0.32

also his chance of winning next game = 0.73

To find probability that you would win the series given that you need to win two games to win the series

= probability that you win first game and second game+ probability that you win first game, lose second game and win third game + probability that you lose first game, win second game and win third game

= 0.68*0.81+0.68*0.32*0.68+0.32*0.68*0.81

=0.8750

Therefore probability that you would win the series = 0.8750

Note: here we found the probability of winning by adding(or) up the three possible combinations that would result in a win

Answer:

Part 1) The inequality that represent this situation is 5(x+7)^{2} \geq1,050  or  5x^{2}+70x+245 \geq1,050

Part 2) Yes, 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Let

L -----> the length of the screen television

W ----> the width of the screen television

x ---->  the width of Andrew's tablet

we know that

L=5W ------> equation A

W=x+7 ----> equation B

The area of the television is

A=LW -----> equation C

Substitute equation A and equation B in equation C

A=5(x+7)(x+7)

A=5(x+7)^{2}

5(x+7)^{2} \geq1,050

5(x^{2}+14x+49) \geq1,050

5x^{2}+70x+245 \geq1,050 ------> inequality that represent this situation

Part 2) Determine if 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

For x=8 in

Substitute in the inequality

5(8+7)^{2} \geq1,050

5(15)^{2} \geq1,050

1,125 \geq1,050 -----> is true

therefore

Yes, 8 inches is a reasonable width for his tablet

In ΔWXY, the measure of ∠Y=90°, XW = 53, YX = 28, and WY = 45. What is the value of the cosine of ∠X to the nearest hundredth?
kotegsom [21]

The value of ∠X = 58.11°, If ΔWXY, the measure of ∠Y=90°, XW = 53, YX = 28, and WY = 45.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                   In ΔWXY, ∠Y=90°

                        XW = 53

                         YX = 28

                        WY = 45

Step:1

             Ref the attachment,

             Given triangle XWY is right angled triangle.

             Trigonometric ratio's,

                              Cos ∅  = \frac{Adj}{Hyp}    

             For the given attachment, the trigonometric ratio becomes,

                              Cos ∅  = \frac{XY}{XW}.....................................(1)

             Let, ∠X = ∅

             Where, XY = 28

                         XW =  53

             Equation (1) becomes,

                                 Cos ∅  = \frac{28}{53}

                                 Cos ∅ = 0.5283

                                        ∅ = cos^{-1} (0.5283)

                                        ∅ = 58.109°

Result:

          The value of ∠X = 58.11°, If ΔWXY, the measure of ∠Y=90°, XW = 53, YX = 28, and WY = 45.

Given: AB ∥ DC , m CB =62°, m∠DAB=104° Find: m∠DEA, m∠ADB
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of angles of parallelogram=360 degrees

adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

Angle A=104 (DAB=104)

Angle D=180-104=76 degrees (angle ADB)

Angle B=60 degrees

Angle C=180-60=120 (DCB)

bulgar [2K]

<u>The toy store received $208</u><u> from selling action figures</u>.

Knowing that each action figure is $8 in the toy store, we can multiply that by the quantity of action figures sold to get the total amount of money received.

26 times $8 is $208.
