P(X \ Y) = P(X ∩ Y)/P(Y)
P(X ∩ Y) = 80/1000 = 0.08
P(Y) = 580/1000 = 0.58

P(X \ Y) = 0.08/0.58 = 8/58 = 4/29

At the start of 2014, Mike's car is worth 12000. the car depreciates by 30 percent every year. how much is his car worth in 2017
Anarel [89]

Answer:

$4,116

Step-by-step explanation:

Worth of Mike's car at the start of 2014 = $12,000

If the car is said to depreciates every year by 30% = 30/100 = 0.3

The worth of the car at the start of 2017 is what we are to determine.

This means that the car depreciated by 30% (0.3) for 3 years since 2014 (2017 - 2014 = 3 yrs)

The worth at the start of 2017 would be calculated as follows:

12,000 × (1 - 0.3)³

= 12,000 × (0.7)³

= 12,000 × 0.343

= 4,116

Worth of the car at the start of 2017 would be $4,116

200 euros       300 euros

--------------- = -----------------------------

270 dollars      x dollars

using cross products

200 * x = 270 * 300

divide each side by 200

x = 270 * 300/200

x =405 dollars

You pack sandwiches for a mountain hike with your friends. Each sandwich takes 222 slices of bread, and each hiker eats one sand
Goryan [66]

Answer:

This question contains some errors; the correct question is:

You pack sandwiches for a mountain hike with your friends. Each sandwich takes 2 slices of bread, and each hiker eats one sandwich. How many slices of bread are used for n hikers? Write your answer as an expression.

The answer is:

(2n) slices of bread for n hikers

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, sandwiches packed for a mountain hike with friends is made of two (2) slices of bread.

Each hiker gets one sandwich

This, n hikers will get n× 1 sandwich

= (n) sandwiches.

If 1 sandwich contains 2 slices of bread, then (n) sandwiches for n hikers will contain:

(2 × n) slices of bread

That is, (2n) slices of bread.

The expression is (2n).

A bucket that has a mass of 30 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 30 meter tall building. You have a ro
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

765 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mass of bucket = 30 kg

Mass of rope = 0.3 kg/m

height of building= 30 meter

Now,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building = work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

Or W = W1 + W2

Work done in lifting the rope is given as,

W1 = Force x displacement

W1 = (30,0)∫(0.2x .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W1 = [0.2x²/2] at boundary of 30 and 0

W1 = 0.1(30²)

W1 = 90 J

work done in lifting the sand is given as;

W2 = (30,0)∫(F .dx)

F = mx + c

Where, c = 30 - 15 = 15

m = (30 - 15)/(30 - 0)

m = 15/30 = 0.5

So,

F = 0.5x + 15

Thus,

W2 = (30,0)∫(0.5x + 15 .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W2 = (0.5x²/2) + 15x at boundary of 30 and 0

So,

W2 = (0.5 × 30²)/2) + 15(30)

W2 = 225 + 450

W2 = 675 J

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W = 90 + 675

W = 765 J
