Answer: SECOND OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the following identity:

cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

In this case:

\alpha=45\°\\adjacent=2\\hypotenuse=x

Therefore, in order to calculate the value of "x", you need to substitute values into cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} and solve for "x".

This is:

cos(45\°)=\frac{2}{x}\\\\xcos(45\°)=2\\\\x=\frac{2}{cos(45\°)}\\\\x=2\sqrt{2}

x≈2.83

Answer:

=2.83 the second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric ratios we can find the sides of the triangle with the acute angles.

In the triangle provided we will use COSINE

Cos ∅=adjacent/hypotenuse

Let us substitute with the values in the question into the formula.

Tan 45 =2/x

x=2/Cos 45

=2.83 units

Rumor of the cancellation of final exams began to spread one day on a college campus with a population of 80 thousand students.S
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

P(t) is directly proportional to N and N'.

Where P is the increase in numbers of students who have heard the exam's cancellation rumor at any time t;

N is numbers of students who have heard the rumor of the exam's cancellation;

N' is numbers of students who have not heard the rumor of the exam's cancellation;

N' = (80 - N). Since the total number of students is 80;

K is the constant of the proportionality.

K is calculated to be 9/700

Therefore,

P(t) = KNN'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x (80 - N)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students is 80. For N, N' = 80 - N.

Initially, 1 thousand people heard the rumor.

Within/after a day, the increased in number of students who have heard the rumor is P = 10 - 1 = 9

P = 9 = K x 10x (80-10)

9 = K x 10 x 70 = 700K.

Divide both sides by 700,

9/700 = (700/700)K

K = 9/700

Subtitle K into the equation P(t) = KNN'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x N'

P(t) = (9/700) x N x (80 - N), where N' = 80 - N

Answer:

The answer to the questions are;

a. The probability that exactly six are retired people is 0.1633459.

b. The probability that 9 or more are retired people is 0.04677.

c. The number of expected retired people in a random sample of 25 stock investors is 0.179705.

d. In a random sample of 20 U.S. adults the probability that exactly eight adults invested in mutual funds is 0.179705.

e. The probability that fewer than five adults invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is 5.095×10⁻².

f. The probability that exactly one adult invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is 4.87×10⁻⁴.

g. The probability that 13 or more adults out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults invested in mutual funds is 2.103×10⁻².

h. 4, 1, 13. They tend to converge to the probability of the expected value.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the binomial distribution probability mass function is given by

f(n,p,x) = \left(\begin{array}{c}n&x&\end{array}\right) × pˣ × (1-p)ⁿ⁻ˣ = ₙCₓ × pˣ × (1-p)ⁿ⁻ˣ

Also the mean of the Binomial distribution is given by

Mean = μ = n·p = 25 × 0.2 = 5

Variance = σ² = n·p·(1-p) = 25 × 0.2 × (1-0.2) = 4

Standard Deviation = σ = \sqrt{n*p*(1-p)}

Since the variance < 5 the normal distribution approximation is not appropriate to sole the question

We proceed as follows

a. The probability that exactly six are retired people is given by

f(25, 0.2, 6) = ₂₅C₆ × 0.2⁶ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 0.1633459.

b. The probability that 9 or more are retired people is given by

P(x>9) = 1- P(x≤8) = 1- ∑f(25, 0.2, x where x = 0 →8)

Therefore we have

f(25, 0.2, 0) = ₂₅C₀ × 0.2⁰ × (1-0.2)²⁵ = 3.78×10⁻³

f(25, 0.2, 1) = ₂₅C₁ × 0.2¹ × (1-0.2)²⁴ = 2.36 ×10⁻²

f(25, 0.2, 2) = ₂₅C₂ × 0.2² × (1-0.2)²³ = 7.08×10⁻²

f(25, 0.2, 3) = ₂₅C₃ × 0.2³ × (1-0.2)²² = 0.135768

f(25, 0.2, 4) = ₂₅C₄ × 0.2⁴ × (1-0.2)²¹ = 0.1866811

f(25, 0.2, 5) = ₂₅C₅ × 0.2⁵ × (1-0.2)²⁰ = 0.1960151

f(25, 0.2, 6) = ₂₅C₆ × 0.2⁶ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 0.1633459

f(25, 0.2, 7) = ₂₅C₇ × 0.2⁷ × (1-0.2)¹⁸ = 0.11084187

f(25, 0.2, 8) = ₂₅C₈ × 0.2⁸ × (1-0.2)¹⁷ = 6.235×10⁻²

∑f(25, 0.2, x where x = 0 →8) = 0.953226

and P(x>9) = 1- P(x≤8)  = 1 - 0.953226 = 0.04677.

c. The number of expected retired people in a random sample of 25 stock investors is given by

Proportion of retired stock investors × Sample count

= 0.2 × 25 = 5.

d. In a random sample of 20 U.S. adults the probability that exactly eight adults invested in mutual funds is given by

Here we have p = 0.4 and n·p = 8 while n·p·q = 4.8 which is < 5 so we have

f(20, 0.4, 8) = ₂₀C₈ × 0.4⁸ × (1-0.4)¹² = 0.179705.

e. The probability that fewer than five adults invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is

P(x<5) = ∑f(20, 0.4, x, where x = 0 →4)

Which gives

f(20, 0.4, 0) = ₂₀C₀ × 0.4⁰ × (1-0.4)²⁰ = 3.66×10⁻⁵

f(20, 0.4, 1) = ₂₀C₁ × 0.4¹ × (1-0.4)¹⁹ = 4.87×10⁻⁴

f(20, 0.4, 2) = ₂₀C₂ × 0.4² × (1-0.4)¹⁸ = 3.09×10⁻³

f(20, 0.4, 3) = ₂₀C₃ × 0.4³ × (1-0.4)¹⁷ = 1.235×10⁻²

f(20, 0.4, 4) = ₂₀C₄ × 0.4⁴ × (1-0.4)¹⁶ = 3.499×10⁻²

Therefore P(x<5) = 5.095×10⁻².

f. The probability that exactly one adult invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is given by

f(20, 0.4, 1) = ₂₀C₁ × 0.2¹ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 4.87×10⁻⁴.

g. The probability that 13 or more adults out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults invested in mutual funds is

P(x≥13) =  ∑f(20, 0.4, x where x = 13 →20) we have

f(20, 0.4, 13) = ₂₀C₁₃ × 0.4¹³ × (1-0.4)⁷ = 1.46×10⁻²

f(20, 0.4, 14) = ₂₀C₁₄ × 0.4¹⁴ × (1-0.4)⁶ = 4.85×10⁻³

f(20, 0.4, 15) = ₂₀C₁₅ × 0.4¹⁵ × (1-0.4)⁵ = 1.29×10⁻³

f(20, 0.4, 16) = ₂₀C₁₆ × 0.4¹⁶ × (1-0.4)⁴ = 2.697×10⁻⁴

f(20, 0.4, 17) = ₂₀C₁₇ × 0.4¹⁷ × (1-0.4)³ = 4.23×10⁻⁵

f(20, 0.4, 18) = ₂₀C₁₈ × 0.4¹⁸ × (1-0.4)² = 4.70×10⁻⁶

f(20, 0.4, 19) = ₂₀C₁₉ × 0.4¹⁹ × (1-0.4)⁴ = 3.299×10⁻⁷

f(20, 0.4, 20) = ₂₀C₂₀ × 0.4²⁰ × (1-0.4)⁰ = 1.0995×10⁻⁸

P(x≥13) = 2.103×10⁻².

h.  For part e we have exactly 4 with a probability of 3.499×10⁻²

For part f the  probability for the one adult is 4.87×10⁻⁴

For part g, we have exactly 13 with a probability of 1.46×10⁻²

The expected number is 8 towards which the exact numbers with the highest probabilities in parts e to g are converging.

At what rate would you need to invest $12000 and make $2880 after 8 years?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

3\%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

I=P(rt)

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

t=8\ years\\ P=\$12,000\\I=\$2,880\\r=?

substitute in the formula above

2,880=12,000(8r)

Solve for t

2,880=96,000(r)

r=2,880/96,000

r=0.03

Convert to percent form

0.03*100=3\%

Deep Blue, a deep sea fishing company, bought a boat for $250,000. After 9 years, Deep Blue plans to sell it for a scrap value o
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Therefore, we use the  linear depreciation and we get is 17222.22 .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Exercise we have that  is boat  $250,000.

The straight line depreciation for a boat  would be calculated as follows:

Cost  boat is $250,000.  

For  $95,000 Deep Blue plans to sell it after 9 years.

We use the formula and we calculate :

(250000-95000)/9=155000/9=17222.22

Therefore, we use the  linear depreciation and we get is 17222.22 .
