The number of hospitals in a certain country has been declining for many years. In 2014, there were 5,727 hospitals, but, in 2017, there were only 5,571. Assuming this trend is linear, write an equation for the number of hospitals H in the this country t years since 2000.
H=

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

H = -52t + 6455

Step-by-step explanation:

2014 is 14 years since 2000. That gives you the point (14, 5727).

2017 is 17 years since 2000. That gives you the point (17, 5571).

Since we have two points in the line, we can find the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

m = slope = (difference in y)/(difference in x)

m = (5571 - 5727)/(17 - 14) = -156/3 = -52

y = -52x + b

Now we use one of the points for x and y, and we solve for b.

5727 = -52(14) + b

b = 6455

The equation is

y = -52x + 6455

Using H and t, we have

H = -52t + 6455

Answer 2

The relationship between the number of hospitals and the years, is a linear function.

The equation for the number of hospitals is: [tex]H = -52t + 6455[/tex]

Let

[tex]t \to[/tex] years since 2000

[tex]H \to[/tex] number of hospitals since 2000

So, we have:

[tex](t_1,H_1) = (14,5727)[/tex] ---- 2014

[tex](t_2,H_2) = (17,5571)[/tex]

Calculate the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{H_2 - H_1}{t_2 - t_1}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]m = \frac{5571 - 5727}{17-14}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-156}{3}[/tex]

[tex]m = -52[/tex]

The linear equation is then calculated using:

[tex]H = m(t - t_1) + H_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]H = -52(t - 14) + 5727[/tex]

[tex]H = -52t + 728 + 5727[/tex]

[tex]H = -52t + 6455[/tex]

Hence, the equation H is: [tex]H = -52t + 6455[/tex]

Not sure if this is exactly correct, but let's say we start with 1 unit. If it increased by 25%, we get:

Now, to get back to 1 unit, we need to find:

.4^3Grafting, the uniting of the stem of one plant with the stem or root of another, is widely used commercially to grow the stem of one variety that produces fine fruit on the root system of another variety. Suppose grafts are done one at a time. A graft fails with probability 0.4, independently of the others. Given there were no failed grafts in the first seven done, what is the probability that there will be at least one failed graft in the next three done

Answers

Answer:

0.784 = 78.4% probability that there will be at least one failed graft in the next three done

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the binomial probability distribution and conditional probability.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: No failed grafts in the first seven

Event B: At least one fail in the next three.

Intersection of events A and B:

Since the probability of a graft failling is independent of other grafts, we have that:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B)[/tex]

So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{P(A)*P(B)}{P(A)} = P(B)[/tex]

So we just have to find the probability of one fail in three trials.

Three trials means that [tex]n = 3[/tex].

The probability is

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.4)^{0}.(0.6)^{3} = 0.216[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.216 = 0.784[/tex]

0.784 = 78.4% probability that there will be at least one failed graft in the next three done

In the first year of a 10,000 investment the interest rate was 6%. All earned interest remained invested for the second year, and the interest rate increased to 7%. What was the percent increase of the entire investment after two years?

Answers

Answer:

13.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

First year:

$10,000*6% = $600

New balance = $10,600

Second Year:

$10,600*7% = $742

$10,600+ $742 = $11,342

Total Return:

Final Balance - Initial balance

$11,342 - $10,000 = $1,342

$10,000*x ÷ $1,342

x = $1,342/$10,000

x = 0.1342

0.134 = 13.4%

What’s 8367 divided by 7

Answers

Answer:

1195.28

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a division problem which is 8,367 ÷ 7.

When it comes to division, you always look at the first number that is being split equally by the second number.

Follow the steps of the division problem :

Find how many times 7 goes into 8 :

7 * 1 = 7

Subtract 7 from 8 :

8 - 7

1

We have 1 in our thousands place, move down the number next to 8 in 8367 which is 3, and see how many times 7 goes into that number :

13

7 * 1 = 7

Therefore 7 only goes in once, put 1 next to 1 on top of the division problem, subtract 7 from 13 :

13 - 7

6

Move the 6 down from 8367 and see how many times 7 goes into that :

7 * 9 = 63

Subtract 63 from 66 :

3

Put 9 next to the one, as for now we have 119, now bring down the last value in 8367 and see how many times 7 goes into that :

37

7 * 5

35

Subtract 37 - 35 :

2

Therefore, our answer is 1195.28 , 1195 Remainder 2

Answer: The answer to 8367 divided by 7 equals 1195.285714 It can also be writtin as 1195.28 for short

Step-by-step explanation: The result of 8367/7 is a non-terminating, repeating decimal. The repeating pattern above, 285714, is called repetend, and denoted overlined with a vinculum.

This notation in parentheses is also common: 8367/7 = 1195.(285714): However, in daily use it’s likely you come across the reptend indicated as ellipsis: 8367 / 7 = 1195.285714… .

8367 divided by 7 in decimal = 1195.285714

8367 divided by 7 in fraction = 8367 divided 7

8367 divided by 7 in percentage = 119528.57142857%

Answers

Answer:

37,500 and non recurring

Step-by-step explanation:

The Riley's will pay a total of $7,500 in costs for the closing costs and $30,000 down payment on their mortgage.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Given that, Rileys are buying a home that costs $250,000.

12% for a down payment

So, down payment is

12% of 250,000

= 12/100 ×250,000

= 12×2500

= $30,000

They are paying 3% in closing costs

3% of 250,000

= 3/100×250,000

= $7,500

Therefore, the Riley's will pay a total of $7,500 in costs for the closing costs and $30,000 down payment on their mortgage.
