This is an exponential decay problem.
Using the equation Y = a *(1-rate)^time
where Y is the future value given as 12,000 and a is the starting value given as 13,000.
The rate is also given as 5%.
The equation becomes:
12,000 = 13,000(1-0.05)^x
12,000 = 13,000(0.95)^x
Divide each side by 13000:
12000/13000 = 0.95^x/13000
12/13 = 0.95^x
Use the natural log function:
x = ln(12/13) / ln(0.95)
x = 1.56 years. ( this will equal 12,000
Round to 2 years it will be less than 12000.
Answer:
And we can assume a normal distribution and then we can solve the problem with the z score formula given by:
And replacing we got:
We can find the probability of interest using the normal standard table and with the following difference:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable who represent the expense and we assume the following parameters:
And for this case we want to find the percent of his expense between 38.6 and 57.8 so we want this probability:
And we can assume a normal distribution and then we can solve the problem with the z score formula given by:
And replacing we got:
We can find the probability of interest using the normal standard table and with the following difference:
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's denote the probabilities as following:
Probability that a teenager has a sister:
P(A) = 12/28
Probability that a teenager has a brother:
P(B) = 7/28
Probability that a teenager has both a sister and a brother:
P(A⋂B) = 3/28
Probability that a selected teenager has a sister also has a brother, or in other words, he/she has a brother, given he/she had a sister:
P(B|A)
Let's apply the formula of conditional probability to work out P(B|A)
P(B|A) = P(A⋂B)/P(A) = (3/28)/(12/28) = (3*28)/(12*28) = 3/12 = 1/4
=> Option C is correct
Hope this helps!
Answer:
the answer is true
Step-by-step explanation:
the more you go negative the less it is so that's why -1 is greater than -8
X-4y=1
2x+y=11
ok so you have x-4y=1 and 2x+y=11
3x-3y=12 is your answer
