Mary and Lewis each open a savings account at the same time. Mary invests $3,700 in an account yielding 3.2% simple interest, and Lewis invests $3,000 in an account yielding 5.9% simple interest. After fifteen years, who has the greater total amount of money, and how much greater is it?
a.
Lewis has $879 more than Mary.
b.
Lewis has $179 more than Mary.
c.
Mary has $776 more than Lewis.
d.
Mary has $345 more than Lewis.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

lewis has $179 more than mary

Answer 2

Lewis has the greater total amount of money than Mary by $879

Given the following data:

Mary's principal = $3,700Mary's interest = 3.2% = 0.032Lewis's principal = $3,000Lewis's interest = 5.9% = 0.059Time = 15 years.

To determine who has the greater total amount of money and by how much greater is it:

The formula for simple interest.

Mathematically, simple interest is given by the formula:

[tex]S.I = PRT[/tex]

Where:

S.I is the simple interest.P is the principal or starting amount.R is the interest rate.T is the time measured in years.

For Mary:

[tex]S.I = 3700 \times 0.032 \times 15[/tex]

S.I = $1,776

For Lewis:

[tex]S.I = 3000 \times 0.059 \times 15[/tex]

S.I = $2,655

Therefore, Lewis has the greater total amount of money.

Next, we would find the difference in their simple interest:

[tex]Difference = 2655-1776[/tex]

Difference = $879

Answers

Answer:

I think they are all combination because order doesn't matter but I don't have a calculator with me to give you EXACT answers for all of them

Step-by-step explanation:

I think combinations because order doesn't matter; or it isn't mentioned. I could be wrong as I'm still learning and confused with finite as well. But to do these, you would do the formula of the probability of an event which is E= favorable outcome/total probabilities.. so for all men 7c6/18c6 and then do the same thing for the rest but for the right ratios and whatnot.

1. Is the following question a statistical question? " During which month did your family take a vacation?"

2. What is the statistical variable represented by the following question, and is it categorical or quantitative? "How many TV sets are owned by families?"

Answers

Problem 1

Answer: No, it is not a statistical question

Explanation:

This is because the question is directed at a specific family, your family in particular. If the surveyor is only asking one person, then there's no need for statistics since a sample isn't formed.

If the question is posed to many people taking a survey, then it would be statistical in nature. However, no further context or clarification is given, so I'll assume that the question is directed at one person, or one family, only. I think your teacher would say "During which month do families take vacation?" to be more general and involve statistics.

==============================================================

Problem 2

Answer: The statistical variable is the number of tv sets owned, and this variable is quantitative

Explanation:

The variable is what we want to figure out, and it's random in nature. Hence the name "random variable". It takes on nonnegative whole numbers 0,1,2,3,... so we can see the data set is discrete. The term "discrete" in math means that there aren't infinitely many numbers between two values. For example, if we pick 2 and 5, we can see the values 3,4 are between them and that's it. Contrast this with a continuous data set and there are infinitely many real numbers between 2 and 5 (eg: 2.78912 and 3.412)

While it might be tempting to think of a discrete number set as finite, that's not entirely true. We have infinitely many nonnegative whole numbers to work with. Though of course, there's a realistic limit that we arrive to and someone having 277 televisions is completely out of the ordinary, if not impossible.

The data variable "Number of TV sets owned" is not only discrete, but it's also ordinal, interval and ratio data as well. Here's a breakdown of what I mean

Ordinal = The data values 0,1,2,3,... can be ordered and it makes sense to do so. Usually the order is from smallest to largest.Interval = Gaps between any two values make sense. So going back to 2 and 5, the gap here is 3. Meaning that if family A has 2 tvs and family B has 5 tvs, then we can say that family B has 3 more tvs compared to family A. Such a statement is valid which means interval data applies.Ratio = Not only can we subtract, but we can also divide. If family A has 2 tvs and family B has 6 tvs, then we can see that the second family has 6/2 = 3 times as many televisions compared to the first family. Again, you have to ask if such a statement makes sense for this type of data to apply.

Since we have many terms apply to this, it sometimes helps to pick just one and try to have it describe the others implicitly. So we go for ratio data since that encapsulates interval and ordinal data types as well. If something is ratio, then automatically it must be ordinal and interval. Division depends on the numbers being well ordered, and that gaps between values make sense and are consistent.

To recap, the data type is quantitative, discrete, and we have a ratio scale.

The variable "number of tv sets owned" is not categorical since the choices to pick from 0,1,2,3,... aren't names; instead they are numbers in which we can perform math operations on and have it make sense. So that's why we go for quantitative data instead of categorical. If it asked "what brand of TV are owned by families?", then the categories of the various brand names would be the answer choices, and lead to categorical data.

Side note: categorical data is always qualitative

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, 3) and (5, -3)?

Answers

Answer (assuming it can be in slope-intercept form):

[tex]y = -\frac{6}{5} x+3[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, use the slope formula [tex]m =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] to find the slope of the line. Substitute the x and y values of the given points into the formula and solve:

[tex]m =\frac{(-3)-(3)}{(5)-(0)} \\m = \frac{-3-3}{5-0}\\m = \frac{-6}{5}[/tex]

So, the slope is [tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex].  

2) Now, use the slope-intercept formula [tex]y = mx + b[/tex] to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. All you need to do is substitute real values for the [tex]m[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] in the formula.

Since [tex]m[/tex] represents the slope, substitute [tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex] for it. Since [tex]b[/tex] represents the y-intercept, substitute 3 for it. (Remember, the y-intercept is the point at which the line hits the y-axis. All points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0. Notice how the given point (0,3) has an x-value, too, so it must be the line's y-intercept.) This gives the following equation and answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{6}{5} x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Money left 226173.7 usd

Answer:

$226,173.70

Step-by-step explanation:

400 * 677 = 270,800

20 * 93.49 = 1869.80

10 * 115.65 = 1156.50

270,800 + 1869.80 + 1156.50 = 273,826.30

500,000 - 273,826.30 = 226,173.70

C. 66 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the middle rectangle would by base × height, or y × h, or 6 × 6.

The area is 36.

The area for one triangle would 1/2 × base × height.

(But since there are two triangles to solve for, the 1/2 is not necessary, and we can just do base × height again.)

So, it would be x × h, or 5 × 6.

The area is 30.

Combine both areas to get the whole area of 66 units²

Answers

Answer:

Angle T = 79°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Side opposite U (u) = 2.7 cm

Side opposite S (s) = 3.9 cm

Side opposite T (t) = 4.3 cm

Angle T =?

The value of angle T can be obtained by using cosine rule as illustrated below:

t²= s² + u² – 2suCosT

4.3² = 3.9² + 2.7² – 2 × 3.9 × 2.7 × Cos T

18.49 = 15.21 + 7.29 – 21.06 × CosT

18.49 = 22.5 – 21.06 × CosT

Rearrange

21.06 × Cos T= 22.5 – 18.49

21.06 × Cos T = 4.01

Divide both side by 21.06

Cos T = 4.01 / 21.06

Cos T = 0.1904

Take the inverse of Cos

T = Cos¯¹ 0.1904

T = 79°

Airport A is located on a coordinate plane at (-18, 14). Airport B is located at (8, 14). How far apart are the airports?

Answers

Answer:

26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula, d = [tex]\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2[/tex]

Plug in the points:

d = [tex]\sqrt{(-18 - 8)^2 + (14 - 14)^2[/tex]

Simplify:

d = [tex]\sqrt{(-26^2 + (0)^2}[/tex]

d = [tex]\sqrt{676}[/tex]

d = 26

So, the airports are 26 units apart
