Thomas wants to invite Madeline to a party. He has an 80% chance of bumping into her at school. Otherwise, he’ll call her on the

phone. If he talks to her at school, he’s 90% likely to ask her to a party. However, he’s only 60% likely to ask her over the phone. What is the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party at school?

Answer:

84%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of Thomas bumping into her at school is 80%, so the probability of not bumping into her is 100% - 80% = 20%.

If he doesn't bump into her (20% chance), he will call her, and the probability of asking her in this case is 60%, so the final probability of asking her in this case is:

P_1 = 20\% * 60\% = 12\%

If he bumps into her (80% chance), the probability of asking her is 90%, so the final probability of asking her in this case is:

P_2 = 80\% * 90\% = 72\%

To find the probability of Thomas inviting Madeline to the party, we just have to sum the probabilities we found above:

P = P_1 + P_2

P = 12\% + 72\% = 84\%

Edward deposited $6,000 into a savings account 4 years ago. The simple interest rate is 3%. How much money did Edward earn in in
GaryK [48]
Hello IdontKnowHowToMath,

first, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year.

Solving our equation:
A = 6000(1 + (0.03 × 4)) = 6720
A = $6,720.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $6,000.00 at a rate of 3% per year for 4 years is $6,720.00.

Victor is enlarging a poster for a school baseball match. The graph below shows the size y of the poster after x enlargements: g
Norma-Jean [14]
For this case we have the following function:
 y = 1.8 ^ x
 The intersection with the y axis occurs when x = 0.
 We have then:
 y = 1.8 ^ 0
 y = 1
 In this case, the intersection with the y-axis represents the original size of the poster.
 Answer:
 
the y-intercept of the graph represents:
 
the original size of the poster.

The perimeter of triangle ABC is 82 inches. The triangle is rotated about a line that passes through points B and D.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

A cone with base radius of 17 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Triangle ABC

Where

AB = BC = 24in

D = Midpoint of AC

Required

Which best describes the resulting three-dimensional figure?

First, the length of the third side of the triangle has to be calculated

The sides of triangle ABC are AB, AC and BC

Given that the perimeter = 82 in

AB + AC + BC = 82

Recall that AB = BC = 24in; The equation becomes

24 + AC + 24 = 82

Collect like terms

AC = 82 - 24 - 24\\AC = 34

Given that, the triangle is rotated at D, the midpoint of AC

The length of the midpoint has to be calculated

D = \frac{1}{2}AC

D = \frac{1}{2} * 34

D = \frac{34}{2}

D = 17

At this point, we can dismiss options C and D.

This is because; a triangular pyramid is formed by more than 1 triangles (at least 3 triangle) and in this case, we're dealing with only 1 triangle.

So, we have option A and B to select from.

When the triangle is rotated at point D, it generates a cone such that the radius of the cone is the distance at point D.

This implies that, a cone with base radius D is generated.

Recall that D = 17.

Hence, <em>A cone with base radius of 17 in</em>
