Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation as

\frac{3x}{5} -3=12

apply multiplication property of equality where you multiply every term by 5

\frac{3x}{5}*5 -3*5=12*5

3x-15=60------------------apply addition property of equality

3x-15+15=60+15

3x=75--------------------------appy division property of equality by dividing both sides by 3

3x/3=75/3

x=25

A player of a video game is confronted with a series of four opponents and an 80% probability of defeating each opponent. Assume
mixer [17]

Answer:

(a) 0.4096

(b) 0.64

(c) 0.7942

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the player wins is,

P(W)=0.80

Then the probability that the player losses is,

P(L)=1-P(W)=1-0.80=0.20

The player is playing the video game with 4 different opponents.

It is provided that when the player is defeated by an opponent the game ends.

All the possible ways the player can win is: {L, WL, WWL, WWWL and WWWW)

(a)

The results from all the 4 opponents are independent, i.e. the result of a game played with one opponent is unaffected by the result of the game played with another opponent.

The probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is,

P (Player defeats all 4 opponents) = P(W)\times P(W)\times P(W)\times P(W)=[P(W)]^{4} =(0.80)^{4}=0.4096

Thus, the probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is 0.4096.

(b)

The probability that the player defeats at least two opponents in a game is,

P (Player defeats at least 2) = 1 - P (Player losses the 1st game) - P (Player losses the 2nd game) = 1-P(L)-P(WL)

                                    =1-(0.20)-(0.80\times0.20)\\=1-0.20-0.16\\=0.64

Thus, the probability that the player defeats at least two opponents in a game is 0.64.

(c)

Let <em>X</em> = number of times the player defeats all 4 opponents.

The probability that the player defeats all four opponents in a game is,

P(WWWW) = 0.4096.

Then the random variable X\sim Bin(n=3, p=0.4096)

The probability distribution of binomial is:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}

The probability that the player defeats all the 4 opponents at least once is,

P (<em>X</em> ≥ 1) = 1 - P (<em>X</em> < 1)

             = 1 - P (<em>X</em> = 0)

             =1-[{3\choose 0}(0.4096)^{0} (1-0.4096)^{3-0}]\\=1-[1\times1\times (0.5904)^{3}\\=1-0.2058\\=0.7942

Thus, the probability that the player defeats all the 4 opponents at least once is 0.7942.

Olenka [21]

I think the answer would be 56. Bc the first job has 8 different people who could get the job and then once someone is chosen for that slot the next teaching position only has 7 candidates. So you would take 8*7 which equals 56.

Eli invested $ 330 $330 in an account in the year 1999, and the value has been growing exponentially at a constant rate. The val
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.

Step-by-step explanation:

The acount's balance, in t years after 1999, can be modeled by the following equation.

A(t) = Pe^{rt}

In which A(t) is the amount after t years, P is the initial money deposited, and r is the rate of interest.

$330 in an account in the year 1999

This means that P = 330

$590 in the year 2007

2007 is 8 years after 1999, so P(8) = 590.

We use this to find r.

A(t) = Pe^{rt}

590 = 330e^{8r}

e^{8r} = \frac{590}{330}

e^{8r} = 1.79

Applying ln to both sides:

\ln{e^{8r}} = \ln{1.79}

8r = \ln{1.79}

r = \frac{\ln{1.79}}{8}

r = 0.0726

Determine the value of the account, to the nearest dollar, in the year 2009.

2009 is 10 years after 1999, so this is A(10).

A(t) = 330e^{0.0726t}

A(10) = 330e^{0.0726*10} = 682

The value of the account in the year 2009 will be $682.
