We have been given that company A has a 30% chance of losing $12,000.
Let us calculate the amount that Yun can loose.
[tex]\frac{12000\times 30}{100} \\ \\ =\$3600[/tex]
Now, 45% chance of breaking even. It means neither loss nor profit.
Then, 25% chance of earning Yun $11,000.
Let us calculate the amount of profit
[tex]\frac{11000 \times 25}{100} \\ \\ =\$2750[/tex]
Since, 3,600 > 2,750. It means that Yun will be in loss on investing in the company.
Hence, she will not invest in the company A.
d is the correct option.
d. no, 3,600 > 2,750
Randall bought a bond with a face value of $6000 and a coupon rate of 7.25%. the bond will mature in 5 years. how much interest will he receive semiannually?
Answer:
Face value of bond = $ 6000
Rate of interest =7.25 %
The Bond will mature in 5 years.
If the interest is semiannually , the rate of interest will reduce to half.
So, new rate of interest will be [tex]\frac{7.25}{2}=3.625[/tex]
Formula for simple interest
[tex]=\frac{\text{Principal}\times Rate \times time}{100}[/tex]
Interest after 6 months will be
[tex]=\frac{6000 \times 3.625 \times 1}{100}\\\\=60 \times 3.625\\\\=217.5[/tex]
So, interest that Randall will receive after six months = $ 217.50

Anna has leaned a ladder against the side of her house. The ladder forms a 72º angle with the ground and rests against the house at a spot that is 6 meters high. What length is the best approximation for the distance along the ground from the bottom of the ladder to the wall?
Answer:
The best approximation of AB is 2 meters.Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that this situation models a right triangle, when the height, which is a leg of the triangle, is 6 meters.
Also, we know the angle between the ladder and the ground, which is 72°.
To find the distance from A to B, which from the bottom of the ladder to the bottom of the wall, we just need to use trigonometric reasons.
[tex]tan(72\°)=\frac{opposite \ leg}{adjacent \ leg}[/tex]
Why we use tangent? Because it relates both legs where we just need to find the adjacent one.
[tex]tan(72\°)=\frac{6}{AB}\\AB=\frac{6}{tan(72\°)} \\AB \approx \frac{6}{3} \\AB \approx 2 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the best approximation of AB is 2 meters.
There was a sample of 200 milligrams of a radioactive substance to start a study. since then, the sample has decayed by 5.4% each year. let t be the number of years since the start of the study. let y be the mass of the sample in milligrams. write an exponential function showing the relationship between y and t .
The exponential function representing the relationship between the mass y of a radioactive sample in milligrams and t years since the start of the study is y = 200(1 - 0.054)^t.
The student is given a starting mass of a radioactive substance and the percentage of the mass that decays each year. To write an exponential function that models this situation, we consider the initial mass, which is 200 milligrams, and the decay rate, which is 5.4% per year. The relationship between the mass y and the time t in years can be represented by the formula y = 200(1 - 0.054)^t.
Using an exponential decay model, we understand that the amount of substance decreases by a certain percentage each year. To account for this, we raise the base (1 - 0.054) to the power of t, representing the number of years, which gives us the factor by which the original mass has reduced.

What is the 12th term of the sequence?
3, −9, 27, −81, 243, ...
The 12th term of the sequence 3, -9, 27, -81, 243, ... is 177,147.
Explanation:The given sequence is: 3, -9, 27, -81, 243, ...
To find the 12th term, we can observe that the sequence alternates between positive and negative, and each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by -3. Starting with 3 as the first term, we can find the 12th term using the formula:
an = a1 * (-3)n-1
Substituting the values, we have:
a12 = 3 * (-3)12-1a12 = 3 * (-3)11a12 = 3 * (-32)5a12 = 3 * 95a12 = 3 * 59049a12 = 177,147Final answer:
The 12th term of the geometric sequence is -531441, found by using the formula for the nth term of a geometric series with a first term of 3 and a common ratio of -3.
Explanation:
The sequence given is geometric with each term being multiplied by -3 to obtain the next term. To find the 12th term of the sequence, we can use the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence: Tn = a * rn-1, where a is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the term number.
For the given sequence, the first term a is 3 and the common ratio r is -3. The 12th term is found by placing these values into the formula:
T12 = 3 * (-3)12-1
T12 = 3 * (-3)11
T12 = 3 * (-177147)
T12 = -531441
Therefore, the 12th term of the sequence is -531441.
How to find the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a triangle of a=(-6,11) b=(2,8) c=(-1,0)?
To find the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a triangle, use the distance formula to calculate the length of each leg and then square these lengths, summing the squares of the two legs that do not form the hypotenuse.
Explanation:To find the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a triangle with vertices A=(-6,11), B=(2,8), and C=(-1,0), we first calculate the length of each leg using the distance formula, which is √((x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²). For AB, AC, and BC we find distances:
AB = √((-6-2)² + (11-8)²)AC = √((-6+1)² + (11-0)²)BC = √((2+1)² + (8-0)²)Then, we square each leg's length:
AB² = ((-6-2)² + (11-8)²)AC² = ((-6+1)² + (11-0)²)BC² = ((2+1)² + (8-0)²)Finally, we sum up the squares of AB and AC because they represent the legs of the triangle:
Σ(leg squares) = AB² + AC²The sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs has now been found.

A line passes through the points (-6,4) and (-2,2). Which is the equation of the line?
Answer:
The equation of the line is [tex]y=\frac{-1}{2}x+1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The equation of the line that passes through two points can be expresed as:
[tex]\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] (Eq.1)
where [tex]x_{1}[/tex], [tex]x_{2}[/tex], [tex]y_{1}[/tex] and [tex]y_{2}[/tex] are the given points.
2. Name the points:
[tex]x_{1}[/tex]=-6
[tex]x_{2}[/tex]=-2
[tex]y_{1}[/tex]=4
[tex]y_{2}[/tex]=2
3. Replace the points in the Eq.1:
[tex]\frac{y-4}{x-(-6)}=\frac{2-4}{-2-(-6)}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y-4}{x+6}=\frac{2-4}{-2+6}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y-4}{x+6}=\frac{-2}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4(y-4)}{x+6}=-2[/tex]
[tex]4(y-4)=-2(x+6)[/tex]
[tex]4y-16=-2x-12[/tex]
[tex]4y=-2x-12+16[/tex]
[tex]4y=-2x+4[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{-2x+4}{4}[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{-2x}{4}+\frac{4}{4}[/tex]
[tex]y=\frac{-1}{2}x+1[/tex]

1. For which angle is secant undefined?
a. 30°
b. 45°
c. 180°
d. 270°
2. Which of the following is csc(-166°) equal to?
a. csc(14°)
b. -csc(14°)
c. -csc(-14°)
d. csc(166°)
1. The secant is defined as the inverse function of co-secant or cos function
Hence when the cosine is 0, the secant is 1/0 which is undefined. So, when cosine is 0, secant is undefined
Cos 30 = [tex] \sqrt{3} /2 [/tex]
Cos 45 = [tex] 1/\sqrt{2} [/tex]
Cos 180 = -1
cos 270 =0
Since cos 270 is 0, secant of 270 is undefined
Answer is d: 270
2. cosec (-x) = - cosec (180 -x)
We have cosec(-166) = - cosec (180-14) = -cosec (14)
Alternatively we can confirm this as csc (-166) = -4.133565 and -csc(14) = -4.133565; Hence, we can reconfirm that the answer arrived at is right
Therefore csc (-166) = -csc(14) (Option B) is the right answer

Brian invests $10,000 in an account earning 4% interest, compounded annually for 10 years. Five years after Brian's initial investment, Chris invests $10,000 in an account earning 7% interest, compounded annually for 5 years. Given that no additional deposits are made, compare the balances of the two accounts after the interest period ends for each account. (round to the nearest dollar)
Compound interest formula is [tex]A = P(1+r)^t[/tex]
Where P is the principal amount
r is the rate of interest
t is number of years
Brian invests $10,000 in an account earning 4% interest, compounded annually for 10 years
P = 10,000 , r= 4% = 0.04 , t =10
Plug in all the values
[tex]A = 10000(1+0.04)^{10}[/tex] = 14,802.44
Chris invests $10,000 in an account earning 7% interest, compounded annually for 5 years.
P = 10,000 , r= 7% = 0.07 , t =5
Plug in all the values
[tex]A = 10000(1+0.07)^5[/tex] = 14,025.52
Brian balance after the interest period = $ 14,802.44
Chris balance after the interest period = $ 14,025.52
Balance in Brian's account is more than Chris account

What is the probability of drawing a red card and then spinning a 1?
Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given picture, the total number of cards = 5
The number of red card = 2
Thus, the probability of drawing a red card P(red)=[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
Also, total number of digits on spinner = 8
Number of 1's=4
Thus, the probability of spinning a 1 P( spinning 1)=[tex]\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Since both the events of drawing a red card and spinning a 1 are independent events, therefore, the probability of drawing a red card and then spinning a 1=[tex]\text{ P(red)}\times\text{P( spinning 1)}=\frac{2}{5}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
