<h2>462</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people on the cruise ship was 1320.

$\frac{1}{4}^{th}$ of the people were child passengers. Number of child passengers = $\dfrac{1}{4}\times (\text{Total number of people})=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 1320=330$

$\frac{2}{5}^{th}$ of the people were crew. Number of people that were crew = $\dfrac{2}{5}\times (\text{Total number of people})=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 1320=528$

Remaining people in the ship constitute the adult passengers.

Number of adult passengers = $(\textbf{Total number of people})-(\textbf{Total number of children})-(\textbf{Total number of crew})=1320-330-528=\textbf{462}$

∴ Number of adult passengers = 462

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.

The data set below represents the ages of 36 executives. find the percentile that corresponds to an age of 4141 years old. 2828

solong [7]

Answer:

37th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a data set that represents the ages of 36 executives. We are asked to find the percentile that corresponds to an age of 41 years.

28, 29, 29, 32, 32, 33, 34, 34, 34, 34, 37, 37, 38, 41, 41, 42, 45, 45, 47, 47, 47, 48, 50, 51, 53, 56, 56, 56, 61, 61, 62, 63, 64, 64, 65, 66.

Let us count the number of data points below and at 41.

We can see that the number of data points at and below 41 is 13.

We will use percentile formula to solve our given problem.

$\text{Percentile rank of x}=\frac{\text{Number of values below x}}{\text{Total number of data points}}\times 100$

$\text{Percentile rank of 41}=\frac{13}{36}\times 100$

$\text{Percentile rank of 41}=0.361111\times 100$

$\text{Percentile rank of 41}=36.11\approx 37$

Therefore, the percentile rank that corresponds to age of 41 years old is 37th percentile.
