Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil.

Jason decides to test the land for oil. He buys a kit that claims to have an 80% accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil. What is the probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it?

Probability of oil = 0.45

Probability kit is right = 0.80

 probability of oil = 0.80 * 0.45 = 0.36

HEYA!!!!!

So, Probability of oil= .45

Probability of that kit is right= .8

Probability that land has oil=
.45 \times .8 = .36
So C) is the correct answer

Hope it helps you......

shusha [124]

Answer:

1 shower- 2.3×15=34.5

Number of minutes spent in the shower in a week- 15×6=90

Gallons used per week- 34.5×90=3,105

There is 52 weeks in a year.

52×3,105=<u>161,460</u>

Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly. What will his balance be after he has made exactly
damaskus [11]

Answer:

The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly.

To find : What will his balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments?

Solution :

Formula of monthly payment ,

M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}  

Discount factor D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}  

Where, Amount = $40,000

Rate r= 4% compounded monthly

i=\frac{4}{100}=0.04  

Time = 10 years  

n=10\times12=120  

Now, put all the values we get,  

D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}  

D=\frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-120}}{0.04}  

D=\frac{1-(1.04)^{-120}}{0.04}  

D=\frac{1-0.00903}{0.04}  

D=\frac{0.9909}{0.04}  

D=24.7725  

M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}  

M=\frac{40000}{24.7725}  

M=1614.69  

Half of the monthly payment is $807.345

Payment for 10 years is 807.345\times 120=96881.4

The balance is $96881.4-$40000=$56881.4

Therefore, The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.

luda_lava [24]

In statistics, the amount of degrees of freedom is the quantity of values in the final computation of a statistic that are free to differ. In this case, you can get the answer by adding the number of bags and subtracting 1.

So in computation, this would look like: 3 + 2 + 1 + 2 - 1 = 7

Therefore, 7 is the degrees of freedom.

6 Using data from 1988 for houses sold in Andover, Massachusetts, from Kiel and McClain (1995),
Nimfa-mama [501]

The study of explanatory or independent differences based on the dependent variable is a simple statistical method. The correlation between two variables is researched in which only the explanatory variable of them would be present, and the further discussion can be defined as follows:

For point (i):

  • The log(distances) seem to be optimistic, and their valuation is 0.312, which also means that the cost of a house will rise even as the distance increases.
  • In this, the certainly is what everybody expects the better the house from the sewage treatment is from a hygienic viewpoint.

For point (ii):

  • In this regard, we cannot use straightforward regression, even as non-biased price estimation might not even be provided.
  • The price-distance relationship here is not so much linear.

For point (iii):

  • Several factors influence the house's price, the biggest contributor is house length, market nearness or public areas, number of rooms, etc.
  • Thus the only influence is not the mere distance from the incinerator. It's one of the factors affecting housing pricing.
  • The proximity of markets and places can be connected to the distance from the crematorium.
  • However, factors such as house size and the number of stories aren't related to the distance from the incineration plant.
