Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

log8 62 = x1

8^x1= 62

8^2 =64 >62 so <u>x1<2</u>

log7 50=x2

7^x2=50

7^2=49<50 so <u>x2>2</u>

we have, x1<2 and 2<x2

x1<2<x2

x1<x2

log8 62<log7 50

Deirdre plotted a point D in Quadrant IV. After she reflected the point across an axis, the reflection was in Quadrant III. Give

Lostsunrise [7]

It depend on what d was. anything in Q3 can work for the reflection and both x and y are negative, you can say that for sure. for the actual point D, anything in Q4. in Q4 x is positive and y is negative. if d is (3,-3) then it's reflection is (-3,-3)

After four years of college, Erica has to start paying off all her student loans. Her first payment is due at the end of this mo

tatiyna

Answer:

Therefore, the approximate monthly payment is $548.85

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of student loans Erica currently has = $34,006.00

The duration over which Erica is to pay back the loan = 7 years

The annual interest rate for the loan = 9.1%

Therefore, we have the geometric sequence formula is given as follows;

$A_n = P( 1 + r)^n - M \times \left [ \dfrac{(1 + r)^n-1}{r} \right ]$

Where;

M = The monthly payment

P = The initial loan balance = $34,006.00

r = The annual interest rate = 9.1%

n = The number of monthly payment = 7 × 12 = 84

Aₙ = The amount remaining= 0 at the end of the given time for payment

Substituting the values into the above formula, , we get;

$0 = 34006 \times \left ( 1 + \dfrac{0.091}{12} \right )^{84} - M \times \left [ \dfrac{\left (1 + \dfrac{0.091}{12} \right )^{84}-1}{\dfrac{0.091}{12} } \right ]$

$M = \dfrac{34006 \times \left ( 1 + \dfrac{0.091}{12} \right )^{84} }{\left [ \dfrac{\left (1 + \dfrac{0.091}{12} \right )^{84}-1}{\dfrac{0.091}{12} } \right ]} \approx 548.85$

Therefore, the approximate monthly payment = $548.85

A jar contains 4 white and 4 black marbles. We randomly choose 4 marbles. If 2 of them are white and 2 are black, we stop. If no

Airida [17]

Answer:

<em>Find the probability of success in a single trial and then think about the nature of the problem (when do we stop). </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that in the single trial, we have (8 4) possibilities of choosing our set of balls. If we have chosen two white balls and two black balls, the probability of doing that is simply

p=(4 2)*(4 2)/(8 4)

This is well know Hyper geometric distribution. Now, define random variable X that marks the number of trials that have been needed to obtain the right combination (two white and two black balls). From the nature of the problem, observe that X has Geometric distribution with parameter p that has been calculated above. Hence

P(X = n) = (1— p)^n-1 *( p )
