At the beginning of summer, Mark has $200 in savings and Ryan has $350 in savings the brothers have mowing jobs set up for the s
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

  • Mark: s = 200 +20j
  • Ryan: s = 350 +15j
  • 30 jobs

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount in savings (s) will be the initial amount plus the product of the pay per job and the number of jobs (j).

<u>Mark</u>

He initially has $200, and is paid $20 per job. His savings will be ...

  s = 200 +20j

<u>Ryan</u>

He initially has $350, and is paid $15 per job. His savings will be ...

  s = 350 +15j

<u>Same Savings</u>

The savings will be the same when the difference between the amounts is zero:

  s - s = 0

  (200 +20j) -(350 +15j) = 0 . . . . . substitute the expressions for s

  -150 +5j = 0 . . . . . collect terms

  -30 +j = 0 . . . . . . . divide by 5

  j = 30 . . . . . . add 30

The brothers will have the same amount in savings after they each work 30 jobs.

Ethan's dresser contains 4 pairs of shorts, 1 each in the colors red, black, blue, and grey. His dresser also contains 3 T-shirt
Kryger [21]

Answer:

\frac{1}{12}


Step-by-step explanation:

In basic probability theory, AND means MULTIPLICATION and OR means ADDITION.

<em>We want to find probability of grey pair of shorts </em>AND<em> grey T-Shirt. So we need to </em><em>multiply</em><em> the individual probabilities.</em>

P(grey shorts) = \frac{1}{4}  (total 4 colors and 1 grey)

P(grey tshirt) = \frac{1}{3}  (total 3 colors and 1 grey)


P(grey shorts AND grey tshirt) = \frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{12}

How long would it take for money to double at 11% interest compounded quarterly?
vlada-n [284]

Answer: Approximately 6.3876 years

When rounding to the nearest whole number, this rounds up to 7 years.

===============================================================

Work Shown:

We'll use the compound interest formula

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

where,

  • A = amount of money after t years
  • P = initial deposit amount or principal
  • r = interest rate in decimal form
  • n = compounding frequency
  • t = number of years

In this case, we know that,

  • A = 2P, since we want the initial amount to double. P can be any positive real number you want and it doesn't affect the answer.
  • r = 0.11
  • n = 4, since we're compounding 4 times a year
  • t = unknown, what we want to solve for

So,

A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

2P = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

2 = (1+r/n)^(n*t)

2 = (1+0.11/4)^(4*t)

2 = 1.0275^(4t)

Ln(2) = Ln(1.0275^(4t))

Ln(2) = 4t*Ln(1.0275)

4t*Ln(1.0275) = Ln(2)

t = Ln(2)/(4*Ln(1.0275))

t = 6.38758965414661

It takes roughly 6.3876 years for the deposit to double. If you need this to the nearest whole number, then round up to 7. We don't round to 6 because then we would come up short of the goal of doubling the deposit.
