Michelle borrows a total of $2500 in student loans from two lenders. One charges 4.2% simple interest and the other charges 6.8% simple interest. She is not required to pay off the principal or interest for 3 yr. However, at the end of 3yr, she will owe a total of $354 for the interest from both loans. How much did she borrow from each lender?

Answers

Answer 1

Let x represent amount borrowed at 4.2% and y represent amount invested at 6.8%.

We have been given that Michelle borrows a total of $2500 in student loans from two lenders. We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]x+y=2500...(1)[/tex]

[tex]y=2500-x...(1)[/tex]

We are also told that at the end of 3 years, she will owe a total of $354 for the interest from both loans.

Amount of interest earned at a rate of 4.2% in 3 years would be [tex]0.042\cdot 3\cdot x=0.126x[/tex].

Amount of interest earned at a rate of 6.8% in 3 years would be [tex]0.068\cdot 3\cdot y=0.204y[/tex].

We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]0.126x+0.204y=354...(2)[/tex]

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:

[tex]0.126x+0.204(2500-x)=354[/tex]

[tex]0.126x+510-0.204x=354[/tex]

[tex]-0.078x+510=354[/tex]

[tex]-0.078x+510-510=354-510[/tex]

[tex]-0.078x=-156[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-0.078x}{-0.078}=\frac{-156}{-0.078}[/tex]

[tex]x=2000[/tex]

Therefore, Michelle borrowed $2000 at 4.2%.

Upon substituting [tex]x=2000[/tex] in equation (1), we will get:

[tex]y=2500-2000=500[/tex]

Therefore, Michelle borrowed $500 at 6.8%.

Answer 2

She borrowed $ 2000 from the 4.2% lender and $ 500 from the 6.8% lender.

Since Michelle borrows a total of $ 2500 in student loans from two lenders, and one charges 4.2% simple interest and the other charges 6.8% simple interest, and she is not required to pay off the principal or interest for 3 yr, but at the end of 3yr, she will owe a total of $ 354 for the interest from both loans, to determine how much did she borrow from each lender, the following calculation must be performed:

4.2 x 3 = 12.6 6.8 x 3 = 20.4 2500 x 0.126 + 0 x 0.204 = 315 2000 x 0.126 + 500 x 0.204 = 354

Therefore, she borrowed $ 2000 from the 4.2% lender and $ 500 from the 6.8% lender.

five rock songs and six hip-hop songs on a disk jockeys playlist for a radio show. If the disc jockey shuffle the songs randomly, what is the possibility that all hip-hop song are played consecutively

Answers

Answer 39916800

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that all hip-hop songs are played consecutively is 0.18%.

To calculate the probability that all hip-hop songs are played consecutively, to consider the total number of possible song arrangements and the number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are consecutive.

The total number of song arrangements calculated using the concept of permutations. Since there are a total of 11 songs on the playlist, the number of possible arrangements is 11!.

Now, let's calculate the number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively treat the 6 hip-hop songs as a single unit or block. This means  6! ways to arrange the hip-hop songs within that block.

Since we have 5 rock songs remaining, we can arrange them in 5! ways.

Therefore, the total number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively is 6! ×5!.

To calculate the probability, we divide the number of favorable outcomes (where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively) by the total number of possible outcomes:

Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)

Probability = (6! × 5!) / 11!

Calculating the numerical value:

Probability = (720 × 120) / 39,916,800

Probability ≈ 0.00180

Fill in the given points in the equation to find three linear equations in a, b, c.

  3 = a(2^2) +b(2) +c

  7 = a(-2)^2 +b(-2) +c

  -2 = a(1^2) +b(1) +c

Subtracting the last equation from the first two gives ...

One method for estimating abundance of animals is known as line-intercept sampling. The theory of this method, when applied to Alaska wolverines, predicts that the proportion p equals.453 of attempts to locate wolverine tracks should be successful. Suppose that biologists will make 100 attempts to locate wolverine tracks in random locations in Alaska. What is the mean of the sampling distribution of p with hat on top if the proportion predicted by line-intercept sampling is correct

Answers

Answer:

0.6848

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of \hat{p} = 0.453

Answer = 0.453

Standard deviation of \hat{p} :

= \sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.453(1-0.453)}{100}} = 0.0498

Answer = 0.0498

P(0.0453 - 0.05 < p < 0.0453 + 0.05)

On standardising,

= P(\frac{0.0453-0.05-0.0453}{0.0498} <Z<\frac{0.0453+0.05-0.0453}{0.0498})

= P(-1.0044 < Z < 1.0044) = 0.6848

Answer = 0.6848

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportions is 0.453.

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

Sample of 100, thus [tex]n = 100[/tex].Proportion of 45.3%, thus [tex]p = 0.453[/tex].

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is [tex]\mu = p = 0.453[/tex].

The measure of a base angle of an isosceles triangle is 20. What is the measure of the vertex?

Answers

Answer:

140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this triangle is isosceles, the base angles must be equal. This means that two out of the three angles in the triangle are 20 degrees. Since all of the angles together in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees, the angle of the vertex is 180-20-20=140 degrees. Hope this helps!

Answer:

140

Step-by-step explanation:

The base angle is 20.  That means the other base angle is also 20

20+20 = 40

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180

180-40= 140

That means the third angle must be 140

The length of a rectangle is five less than its width. The area of the rectangle is 84 square feet. Write a quadratic equation in standard form, ax^2+bx+c=0

Answers

Given:

The length of a rectangle is 5 less than its width.

The area of the rectangle is 84 square feet.

We need to determine the quadratic equation in standard form that represents the area of the rectangle.

Dimensions of the rectangle:

Let l denote the length of the rectangle.

Let w denote the width of the rectangle.

Since, it is given that the length is 5 less than its width, it can be written as,

[tex]l=5-w[/tex] and [tex]w=w[/tex]

Area of the rectangle:

The area of the rectangle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]A=length \times width[/tex]

Substituting A = 84, [tex]l=5-w[/tex] and [tex]w=w[/tex], we get

[tex]84=(5-w)\times w[/tex]

[tex]84=5w-w^2[/tex]

Adding both sides of the equation by w², we have;

[tex]w^2+84=5w[/tex]

Subtracting by 5w on both sides, we get;

[tex]w^2-5w+84=0[/tex]

Thus, the quadratic equation in standard form for the area of the rectangle is [tex]w^2-5w+84=0[/tex]

The school held there talent quest and this year they had 1,204 people in attendance. Last year the attendance was only 860. What was the percentage increase from last year?

Answers

Answer:

28.57℅

Step-by-step explanation:

If last year attendance was 860 and the attendance increases to 1204:

Attendance increment = 1204-860

= 344

%increase = increment/current attendance × 100%

% increase = 344/1204 × 100

℅ increase = 34400/1204

% increase = 28.57%

Therefore the percentage increase from last year is 28.57℅

If the height and base of the parallelogram shown are each decreased by 2 cm, what is the area of the new parallelogram?

complete question:

If the height and base of the parallelogram shown are each decreased by 2 cm, what is the area of the new parallelogram?

A parallelogram with a base of 10 centimetres and a height of 8 centimetres.

Answer:

area = 48 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is quadrilateral with 4 sides formed by 2 pair of parallel lines. The area of a parallelogram is represented as follows :

area of parallelogram =  B × H

where

B = breadth

H = height

According to the question the height and the base each reduced by 2 cm.

Answer:

b.  The percentage of adult women that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

c. No, it is not adequate. There must be another technical reasons to not use a larger door.

d. The doorway height that would allow 60% of men to fit without bending is 70.1 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To fit throught the door, the height has to be under 51.6. To calculate this proportion, we have to calculate the z-score for X=51.6 for the distribution of men's height N(μ=69.5, σ=2.4).

We can calculate the z-score as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{51.6-69.5}{2.4}=\dfrac{-17.9}{2.4}=-7.4583[/tex]

[tex]P(X<51.6)=P(z<-7.4583)=0[/tex]

The percentage of adult men that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

b. To fit throught the door, the height has to be under 51.6. To calculate this proportion, we have to calculate the z-score for X=51.6 for the distribution of women's height N(μ=63.8, σ=2.6).

We can calculate the z-score as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{51.6-63.8}{2.6}=\dfrac{-12.2}{2.6}=-4.6923[/tex]

[tex]P(X<51.6)=P(z<-4.6923)=0[/tex]

The percentage of adult women that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

c. No, it is not adequate. There must be another technical reasons to not use a larger door.

d. We can calculate this finding a z-value z1 for which P(z<z1)=0.60.

Looking in a standard normal distribution table, the value for z1 is z1=0.25335.

Then, transforming to our adult men's height distribution, we have:

[tex]X=\mu+z\sigma=69.5+0.25335*2.4=69.5+0.6=70.1[/tex]

The doorway height that would allow 60% of men to fit without bending is 70.1 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The full complete question is attached to this solution.

The full table is given as

Year | 1970 | 1980 | 1990 | 2000

Cash |$180 |$262 |$564 | $938

we are told to use linear approximation to obtain C(2010)

Linear approximation, Mathematically, results in

C(2010) = C(2000) + C'(t) [t]

where t = years since 2010 = (Year - 2000)

Linear approximation gives C'(t) as the rate of change of C with time

C'(t) = (ΔC/Δt)

We will be using the latest year for this approximation.

ΔC = C(2000) - C(1990) = 938 - 564 = $374

Δt = 2000 - 1990 = 10

C'(t) = (374/10) = $37.4 per year.

C(2010) = C(2000) + C'(t) [t]

t = 2010 - 2000 = 10

C(2000) = $938

C'(t) = $37.4 per year

C(2010) = 938 + (37.4)(10) = $1312

Answers

Answer:

[tex] E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) [/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] E(X) = 1*0.05 +2* 0.3 +3* 0.4 +4*0.25 = 2.85[/tex]

So we are going to expect about 2,85 automobiles for this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of automobiles lined up at a Lakeside Olds dealer at opening time (7:30 a.m.)" and we know the distribution for X is given by:

X         1         2       3         4

P(X)  0.05  0.30  0.40   0.25

The expected value of a random variable X is the n-th moment about zero of a probability density function f(x) if X is continuous, or the weighted average for a discrete probability distribution, if X is discrete

For this case we can calculate the epected value with this formula:

[tex] E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) [/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] E(X) = 1*0.05 +2* 0.3 +3* 0.4 +4*0.25 = 2.85[/tex]

So we are going to expect about 2,85 automobiles for this case.

Final answer:

The expected number of automobiles at Lakeside Olds at opening time can be calculated as a weighted average, resulting in an expectation of approximately 3 cars.

Explanation:

The expected number of automobiles lined up at Lakeside Olds at opening time would be calculated by multiplying each number of automobiles by its respective probability and then adding up those products. This is essentially calculating a weighted average.

So for the given data:

Multiply 1 (number of automobiles) by its probability of 0.05: 1*0.05 = 0.05Multiply 2 by its probability of 0.30: 2*0.30 = 0.60Multiply 3 by its probability of 0.40: 3*0.40 = 1.20Multiply 4 by its probability of 0.25: 4*0.25 = 1.00

Add up those results: 0.05 + 0.60 + 1.20 + 1.00 = 2.85. Thus, on a typical day, Lakeside Olds should expect approximately 3 automobiles to be lined up at opening time.

Josh would like to carry out a test to determine if there is convincing evidence that the mean number of squares of Fluffy that are needed to absorb one-quarter cup of water is fewer than 26 squares. What is the appropriate test statistic and P-value of this test?

Answers

Answer:

t = -2.69 , p = 0.0078

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

Sample Mean = x = 24.444

Sample Standard Deviation = s = 2.45

Sample size = n = 18

Josh wants to test that mean number is lesser than 26. So our test value is 26 i.e.

u = 26

Since Josh wants to test that mean would be fewer than 26, so this would be a left tailed test with a less than sign in Alternate Hypothesis. Therefore, the hypothesis would be:

[tex]H_{o}: u\geq 26\\H_{a}: u<26[/tex]

Since, we do not know the value of Population standard deviation, and we have the value of sample standard deviation, we will use One-Sample t-test for the population mean.

The formula to calculate the test-statistic would be:

[tex]t=\frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

Substituting the values in this formula gives us:

[tex]t=\frac{24.444-26}{\frac{2.45}{\sqrt{18}}}\\t=-2.69[/tex]

This means, the test statistic would be -2.69

Since, the sample size is 18, the degrees of freedom would be:

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 17

To find the p-value we need to check the p-value against test statistic of 2.69, with 17 degrees of freedom and One-tailed test. This value comes out to be:

p-value = 0.0078

Therefore, the correct answer would be:

t = -2.69 , p = 0.0078

The ratio of forks to knives in Isabella’s kitchen drawer is 4 to 5. There are
16 forks in the drawer. How many knives are there?

Answers

Answer:

20 knives

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of fork to knives is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] and their are 16 forks, so we put the ratio of fork and knives equal to number of fork and knives so its:

[tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{x}[/tex]  We cross multiply

80 = 4x Divide both  side by 4

x = 20

we can check too

16/20 if we simplify, its give us 4/5

There are 20 knives in Isabella's kitchen.

The ratio of forks to knives in Isabella’s kitchen drawer is 4 to 5.

Given that there are 16 forks in the drawer, we can set up a proportion to find the number of knives:

4/5 = 16/X

Cross multiply to get: 4X = 80

Divide by 4 to find X = 20

Therefore, there are 20 knives in Isabella's kitchen drawer.

The segments shown below could form a triangle.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Very true. A triangle consists of three sides so think of how u could make a triangle with those three lines

Final answer:

The answer to whether the segments with lengths of 1, 8, and 8 can form a triangle is True.

Explanation:

Can Segments Form a Triangle?

To determine if the segments with lengths of 1 and 8 can form a triangle, we need to apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem. This theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, we have two sides that are each 8 units long, and one side that is 1 unit long.

Let's add the lengths of the two shorter segments: 1 + 8 = 9.

This sum is greater than the length of the other segment, which is 8. Now, we will check the sum of the other two possible pairs:

8 + 8 = 16, which is greater than 1.8 + 1 = 9, which is also greater than 8.

Since all combinations of the sums of two sides are greater than the third side, these segments can indeed form a triangle.

Thus, the answer to whether the segments with lengths of 1, 8, and 8 can form a triangle is True.

A moving sidewalk in an airport moves people between gates. It takes Jason's 8-year-old

daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk. It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft

against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction). Find the speed of the sidewalk and find

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground.

The side walk moves at Ft/sec

Answers

Answer:

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk

Distance = speed × time

176 = (x+y)×44

44x+44y = 176

x+y = 4 .......1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).

21 = (y-x)7

7y - 7x = 21

y - x = 3 ......2

Add equation 1 to 2

2y = 7

y = 3.5 ft/sec

From equation 1

x + y = 4

x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5

x = 0.5 ft/sec

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Answer: Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5 ft/sec

The side walk moves at 0.5 Ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground.

Let y represent the speed of the sidewalk.

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk. It means that the total speed at which she moved is

(x + y) ft/sec

Distance = speed × time

Therefore,

176 = 44(x + y)

Dividing both sides by 44, it becomes

4 = x + y- - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction). It means that the total speed at which she moved is (x - y) ft/sec

Therefore,

21 = 7(x - y)

Dividing both sides by 7, it becomes

3 = x - y- - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 and 2, it becomes

7 = 2x

x = 7/2 = 3.5 ft/sec

Substituting x = 3.5 into equation 2, it becomes

3 = 3.5 - y

y = 3.5 - 3 = 0.5 ft/sec

High Risk because returns are not guaranteed, but time frames are set

—Speculation

Moderate Disk because expectations of returns are reasonable and average

—Growth

Low Risk because of steady Interest without fluctuation in value

—Savings

Final answer:

In investment terms, growth corresponds to high risk as returns aren't guaranteed, savings relate to low risk due to steady interest income, and speculation signifies moderate risk as it has reasonable return expectations.

Explanation:

The types of investment can be associated with different levels of risk as follows:

Growth is correlated with high risk because the returns are not guaranteed, but time frames are set. For example, investing in a start-up tech firm may have great potential for growth, but also carries a significant risk if the company does not succeed. Savings are associated with low risk due to steady interest without fluctuation in value. This might be a savings account or a fixed-rate bond, where the earnings are steady and dependable, and there is little risk of losing your initial investment. Speculation presents a moderate risk because expectations of returns are reasonable and average. This could be investments in commodities, real estate or foreign exchange, where there is some risk involved but also the potential for significant gains.

A manufacturer estimates that its product can be produced at a total cost of C(x) = 45,000 + 100x + x3 dollars. If the manufacturer's total revenue from the sale of x units is R(x) = 4000x dollars, determine the level of production x that will maximize the profit. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

The level of production (x) that will maximize the profit is approximately 36 units.

The profit is the revenue (R(x)) minus the cost (C(x)). So, we have:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

Given Functions:

Cost Function: C(x) = 45,000 + 100x + x³ dollars

Revenue Function: R(x) = 4000x dollars

Substitute the given functions into the profit function:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 4000x - (45,000 + 100x + x³)

P(x) = 4000x - 45,000 - 100x - x³

Simplify the profit function:

P(x) = -x³ + 3900x - 45,000

Find the critical points by differentiating the profit function and setting it to zero:

P'(x) = -3x² + 3900

Set P'(x) = 0 and solve for x:

-3x² + 3900 = 0

-3x² = -3900

x²= 1300

x = ±√1300

x = ±36.06

Evaluate the second derivative (P''(x)) to determine if these critical points are maxima or minima:

P''(x) = -6x

Substitute the critical points (x = ±36.06) into P''(x):

P''(x)= -6(36.06)

= -216.36 (negative value)

Since the second derivative is negative at x ≈ ±36.06, it confirms that x = 36.06 is a maximum point.

So, the level of production (x) that will maximize the profit is approximately 36 units.

Final answer:

To determine the level of production that maximizes profit, we calculate the profit function, differentiate it to find critical points, and then identify the maximum. The critical points are found by setting the first derivative of the profit function to zero and solving for x.

Explanation:

To determine the level of production x that will maximize the profit for the manufacturer, we first need to calculate the profit function. Profit, P(x), is the difference between total revenue, R(x), and total cost, C(x).

The profit function is defined as P(x) = R(x) - C(x). Using the given cost function C(x) = 45,000 + 100x + x^3 dollars and the revenue function R(x) = 4000x dollars, we get:

P(x) = 4000x - (45,000 + 100x + x^3)

This simplifies to:

P(x) = -x^3 + 3900x - 45,000

To find the production level that maximizes profit, we need to determine the critical points by differentiating P(x) and setting the derivative equal to zero. The derivative of P(x) is:

P'(x) = -3x^2 + 3900.

Setting P'(x) = 0 gives:

-3x^2 + 3900 = 0

Solving for x yields two critical points, but only one will maximize profit. We can find this maxima by testing which value of x gives the higher P(x) or by using the second derivative test. After finding the correct value of x, we round it to the nearest whole number as the final answer.
