<h3>Answer: 97/112</h3>

================================================

How to get this answer:

Midpoint formula: (A+B)/2 = C

A and B are the endpoints with C as the midpoint

A = 7/8

B = 6/7

A+B = 7/8 + 6/7

A+B = 49/56 + 48/56

A+B = (49+48)/56

A+B = 97/56

(A+B)/2 = (97/56) divided by 2

(A+B)/2 = (97/56) times (1/2)

(A+B)/2 = (97*1)/(56*2)

(A+B)/2 = 97/112

According to a survey of adults, 64 percent have money in a bank savings account. If we were to survey 50 randomly selected adul
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult surveyed, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have bank savings accounts, or they do not. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.64

If we were to survey 50 randomly selected adults, find the mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts.

This is E(X) when n = 50.

So

E(X) = np = 50*0.64 = 32

The mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts is 32.

Serena is single. She purchased her principal residence three years ago. She lived in the home until she sold it at a $300,000 g
Lesechka [4]

Answer: Long -term capital gain

Step-by-step explanation:

Serena is single, so based on the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, she would pay no capital gains tax on the first $250,000 gain.

Therefore, $300,000 - $250,000 =  $50,000

<em>The remaining $50,000 gain is taxable because of her being single and it has been her principal residence for three years.</em>

viktelen [127]
Yes

I’m assuming 16 is the amount he earned and (-16) is the amount he spent

16 + (-16) = 16-16 = 0

Juan spent the same amount of money as he earned that day and broke even
