Answer:

In 12 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = year when average the average cost of owning a freezer would be less than $117

($850 + $40a) / a < $117

$850 + $40a < $117a

collecting like terms

$850 < $77a

a = 11.04 months

Find the sequence.. <br> 1,2,2,4,8
AlladinOne [14]
Let the n-th term be called a_n

We see that if we choose a_0=1,a_1=2 then the other numbers follow the pattern a_{n+2}=a_{n+1}\cdot a_n (see :4=2*2,8=4*2)

Hence the sequence will be 1,2,2,4,8,32,256, 8192, 2097152, 17179869184,\dots

Lamark goes to a bowling alley to test his belief that rolling a bowling ball slowly will result in knocking down more pins. He

Answer: Ball's kinetic energy became potential energy

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no options attached but this should be along the lines of what happened.

Kinetic energy refers to energy that an object has as a result of it moving whilst potential energy is the opposite and is energy that an object stores within itself due to several factors whilst it is not in motion.

The ball was initially in motion which means that it had kinetic energy but as the ball was slowing down, this energy was gradually converted to potential energy until the balls came to a standstill.

In studying the insurance preferences of homeowners the following conclusions are made: A homeowner is three times as likely to
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

0.632

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner is three times as likely to purchase additional jewelry coverage as additional electronics coverage

If probability of purchasing additional electronics coverage = p, then prob of purchasing jewelry coverage = 3p

The two events are independent hence joint probability is product of these two.

i.e. P(both) = p(3p) =3p^2

This is given as 0.2

3p^2 =0.2\\p = 0.258

the probability that a homeowner purchases exactly one coverage.

=P(AUB)-P(A \bigcap B)

= Prob he purchases I + prob he purchases II-2(prob he purchases both)

= 0.258+3(0.258)-2(0.2)\\=0.632

A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 50% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

  V = a³/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:

  V = a³

When the side length is reduced to half its former value, the new volume is ...

  V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³

  V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube
