Answer:We can see that this is dependent probability. We can find dependent probability of happening event A then event B by multiplying probability of event A by probability of event B given that event A already happened.

Step-by-step explanation:In our case event A is pirate hitting captain's ship and event B is captain missing pirate's ship.

We have been given that pirate shoots first so pirate's ship can't be hit before pirate shoots his cannons. So probability of hitting captain's ship is 1/3.

We have been given that if Captain Ben's ship is already hit then Captain Ben will always miss. So the probability of Captain missing the dread pirate's ship given the pirate Luis hitting the Captain ship is 1.

Now to find probability that pirate hits Captain, but Captain misses we will multiply our both probabilities.

Derek bought a new car for $32,000. He made a down payment of $17,000 and financed the balance through the car dealer. He was un
Andreyy89

Answer:

$300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Derek bought a new car for $32,000;

The original amount of purchase = $32,000

Down payment =  $17,000

Remaining amount = Original amount of purchase - Down payment

= $(32000 -17000)

= $ 15,000

Also;

rate of interest per month is 2%

and the Derek is unable to pay his first monthly payment

thus the interest amount is calculated on principal amount

so for the first month interest is calculated on total principal amount

The month interest payment is then calculated as :

= 15,000 × 2%

= 15,000 × 0.02

= $300

To reduce wear and tear on the family vehicle, you decide to rent a car. Happy Harry’s Rentals has a $500 fee for any rental up
yan [13]

Let's use 8 days as the maximum time we are going to be renting the car.

Putting that into the equation means, 500$ for Harry's Rentals and Smilin' Sam's at $600.

Therefore, Happy Harry's Rentals are better for the 7th and 8th days while Smiling Sam's are the better from day's 1 to 6.

Work:

500$ is a fixed value so it doesn't change (constant)

200 + 50x

x = days

8 days = 8x

200 + 50(8)

200 + 400 = 600

The number of acres in a region cleared for farming follows the formula a = f (t) = 2t2 where t is the number of months since th
Anit [1.1K]

we are given

a=f(t)=2t^2

we can use average rate of change formula from t=a to t=b

A=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here, we are given from t=1 to t=4

so, we will get formula as

A=\frac{f(4)-f(1)}{4-1}

now, we can plug values

A=\frac{2(4)^2-2(1)^2}{4-1}

now, we can simplify it

A=10

the average rate of change in the number of acres cleared for farming between t = 1 and t = 4  is 10 acres/ month.............Answer
