A new car is purchased for $41, 000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 3 years. What is the value of the car 4 years after it was purchased, to the nearest hundred dollars?

At the end of 2 years, Jackson's account balance is $700.40.

We have,

The formula for calculating simple interest is:

I = Prt

Where:

I is the interest earned

P is the principal amount

r is the interest rate

t is the time period

In this case,

Jackson invested $680.00 at an annual interest rate of 1.5% for 2 years. Therefore:

P = $680.00

r = 1.5% = 0.015

t = 2 years

Plugging these values.

I = Prt = $680.00 x 0.015 x 2 = $20.40

So,

Jackson earned $20.40 in interest over 2 years.

To find his total account balance at the end of 2 years, we need to add the interest earned to the initial principal:

Total balance

= $680.00 + $20.40

= $700.40

Therefore,

At the end of 2 years, Jackson's account balance is $700.40.

Answer:

The median is the best measure of center, and it equals 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line for the median is exactly on 19

The line in the box of a box plot represents the median of the data. For this particular data set shown in the box plot, the median is 19.

In the described box plot, the line in the box that is at the number 19 represents the median of the data. This is because a box plot illustrates the five number summary of a data set: the minimum, the first quartile, the median (second quartile), the third quartile, and the maximum. The line inside the box always represents the median. Therefore, the correct choice is: The median is the best measure of center, and it equals 19.

Answer:

972 square feet

When not considering the order of choice, there are also 3 ways to choose 2 letters from a, b, and c.

When choosing 2 letters without replacement from the 3 letters a, b, and c, the number of ways can be calculated considering the order of choice and without considering the order of choice.

1. Considering the order of choice:

In this case, the order in which the letters are chosen matters. We can think of this as a permutation problem.

To calculate the number of ways when order matters, we use the formula for permutations:

[tex]nPr = n! / (n - r)![/tex]

where n is the total number of items and r is the number of items chosen.

In this case, we have 3 letters and we want to choose 2, so n = 3 and r = 2.

Using the formula, we get:

[tex]3P2 = 3! / (3 - 2)![/tex]

 [tex]= 3! / 1![/tex]

    = 3

Therefore, when considering the order of choice, there are 3 ways to choose 2 letters from a, b, and c.

2. Without considering the order of choice:

In this case, the order in which the letters are chosen does not matter. We can think of this as a combination problem.

To calculate the number of ways when order does not matter, we use the formula for combinations:

[tex]nCr = n! / (r!(n - r)!)[/tex]

Using the same values of n = 3 and r = 2, we get:

[tex]3C2 = 3! / (2!(3 - 2)!)[/tex]

    = [tex]3! / (2! * 1!)[/tex]

    = 3

Therefore, when not considering the order of choice, there are also 3 ways to choose 2 letters from a, b, and c.

The approximate value of √329 to the nearest integer is 18.

Approximation is the process of using rounded values when presenting numerical data and making rough calculations.

To approximate √329 to the nearest integer, we can find the perfect squares that are less than or equal to 329.  

The perfect squares less than or equal to 329 are 16, 25, 36, and 49. But the nearest perfect square to 329 is 324, which is the square of 18 (i.e. 18² = 324).

The solutions to the original equation are:

x = π - 3π/2 = -π/2

x = 3π/2 - 3π/2 = 0

So the values of x that satisfy the equation are -π/2 and 0.

To solve the given equation, we can use the following             trigonometric identity:

sin(A) + sin(B) = 2*sin((A+B)/2)*cos((A-B)/2)

Applying this identity to sin(3π/2+x) + sin(3π/2+x), we get:

sin(3π/2+x) + sin(3π/2+x) = 2*sin((3π/2+x + 3π/2+x)/2)cos((3π/2+x - 3π/2+x)/2)

= 2sin(3π/2+x)cos(0)

= 2(-cos(x))

Therefore, the equation can be simplified to:

-2*cos(x) = 2

Dividing both sides by -2, we get:

cos(x) = -1

This means that x is either π or 3π/2, since those are the values where cos(x) = -1.

And ,  zeros x = - 2 with multiplicity 2 and x = 3 with multiplicity 1

where function passes through the point (1, 54)

If a polynomial function has a zero x = a with multiplicity k, then the factor (x - a)^k appears in its factored form.

Therefore, a degree 3 polynomial function with zeros x = -2 with multiplicity 2 and x = 3 with multiplicity 1 can be written in factored form as:

f(x) = a(x + 2)²(x - 3)

where a is a constant factor. To find the value of a, we use the fact that the function passes through the point (1, 54):

f(1) = a(1 + 2)²(1 - 3) = 54

a(-1)²(-2) = 54

-4a = 54

Divide by -4 on both sides , we get

Pythagorean theorem states that the "square on the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is equal in area to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.

between 91 and 94 peanuts: z = (94 - 94) / 3 = 0

between 94 and 97 peanuts: z = (97 - 94) / 3 = 1

greater than 97 peanuts: z = (97 - 94) / 3 = 1

The probability that a 16-ounce can of Nut Munchies will contain between 88 and 97 nuts is 0.8186, or approximately 82%.

The probability of the former event is 0.4772, which is greater than the probability of the latter event, which is 0.1587.

(a) The intervals below the normal distribution can be labeled using z-scores, which are calculated using the formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the value of interest, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

The intervals and their corresponding z-scores are:

less than 88 peanuts: z = (88 - 94) / 3 = -2

between 88 and 91 peanuts: z = (91 - 94) / 3 = -1

between 91 and 94 peanuts: z = (94 - 94) / 3 = 0

between 94 and 97 peanuts: z = (97 - 94) / 3 = 1

greater than 97 peanuts: z = (97 - 94) / 3 = 1

(b) To find the probability that a 16-ounce can of Nut Munchies will contain between 88 and 97 nuts, we need to find the area under the normal distribution curve between the corresponding z-scores. Using a standard normal distribution table or a calculator, we can find that:

P(88 ≤ X ≤ 97) = P(-2 ≤ Z ≤ 1) = 0.8186

Therefore, the probability that a 16-ounce can of Nut Munchies will contain between 88 and 97 nuts is 0.8186, or approximately 82%.

(c) To determine which event is more likely, we can compare the probabilities of each event. Using the same method as in part (b), we can find that:

P(88 ≤ X ≤ 94) = P(-2 ≤ Z ≤ 0) = 0.4772

P(X > 97) = P(Z > 1) = 0.1587

Therefore, it is more likely for a 16-ounce can of Nut Munchies to have between 88 and 94 nuts than to have over 97 nuts, since the probability of the former event is 0.4772, which is greater than the probability of the latter event, which is 0.1587.

Answer:

Hope this helps ^^

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the variables:

Let's call the cost of a burger "B" (in dollars).

Let's call the cost of a hotdog "H" (in dollars).

Now, we can set up a system of equations based on the given information:

Equation 1: 2B + H = 4.82 (Two burgers and one hotdog cost $4.82)

Equation 2: B + 2H = 3.70 (One burger and two hotdogs cost $3.70)

To solve this system of equations, we can use the method of substitution or elimination.

Using the method of elimination, we can multiply Equation 2 by 2 to eliminate the "B" term:

2(B + 2H) = 2(3.70)

2B + 4H = 7.40

Now, we can subtract Equation 1 from this new equation to eliminate the "2B" term:

(2B + 4H) - (2B + H) = 7.40 - 4.82

2H - H = 2.58

H = 2.58

Therefore, the cost of a hotdog is $2.58.

Labeling the answer: The cost of a hotdog is $2.58.
