So far she scored 11 out of 15, which is a chance of 11/15, which is also the experimental probability for her next throw.

Question:

Abdulla took a takie from his home to the air port. The taxi driver chared an initial fee of 12AED pluse 2.50AED per km. How much change should the taxi driver give mr abdulla bach if he gave him 100AED at the end of his trip

Answer:

88 - 2.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Initial charge = 12

Charge per kilometer = 2.50

Amount given to driver = 100

Let distance from home to airport = x

Total charge = (initial charge + (distance * charge per km)

Total charge = 12 + 2.50x

Change = (Amount given to driver - total charge)

Change = (100 - (12 + 2.50x))

100 - 12 - 2.50x

88 - 2.50x

A machine shop produces heavy duty high endurance 20-inch rods that are meant for use in a variety of military grade equipment.

QveST [7]

Answer:

The probability that a defective rod can be salvaged = 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A machine shop produces heavy duty high endurance 20-inch rods

On occasion, the machine malfunctions and produces a groove or a chisel cut mark somewhere on the rod.

If such defective rods can be cut so that there is at least 15 consecutive inches without a groove.

Then; The defective rod can be salvaged if the groove lies on the rod between 0 and 5 inches i.e ( 20 - 15 )inches

Now:

P(X ≤ 5) = $\dfrac{5}{20}$

= 0.25

P(X ≥ 15) = $\dfrac{5}{20}$

= 0.25

The probability that a defective rod can be salvaged = P(X ≤ 5) + P(X ≥ 15)

= 0.25+0.25

= 0.50

∴ The probability that a defective rod can be salvaged = 0.50

Clarissa needs a $2,500 loan in order to buy a car. Which loan option would allow her to pay the least amount of interest?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Clarissa needs a $2,500 loan in order to buy a car.

There are 4 options of loan we will calculate all the options that pay the least amount of interest.

To calculate the interest we will use this formula :

$\frac{P\times R\times time}{100}$

Where P = Principal amount

R = rate of interest

T = time in years

A) Principal 2,500 interest 4.75% and time 18 months (1.5 years)

$\frac{2500\times 4.75\times 1.5}{100}$

= $178.125

B) Principal 2,500 interest 4% and time 30 months (2.5 years)

$\frac{2500\times 4\times 2.5}{100}$

= $250

C) Principal 2,500 interest 4.25% and time 24 months (2 years)

$\frac{2500\times 4.25\times 2}{100}$

= $212.50

D) Principal 2,500 interest 4.50% and time 36 months (3 years)

$\frac{2500\times 4.5\times 3}{100}$

= $337.50

The least amount of interest would be in option A.
