Frans paid R9600 as interest on a loan he took 5 years ago at 16% rate. What's was the amount he took as loan?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest (I)=R9600
Rate(R)=16%
Time (T)=5years
Principal (P)=?
P=100×I÷R×T
P=100×R9600÷16×5
P=R960000÷80
P=R12, 000
Answer:
The amount he took as loan = R12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest
Let loan amount be = P
R = 16%
T = 5years
I = 9600
Find P
[tex]I = \frac{PRT}{100}\\\\9600 = \frac{P \times 16 \times 5}{100}\\\\P = \frac{9600 \times 100}{16 \times 5} = 12,000[/tex]

The explicit rule for a sequence and one of the specific terms is given. Find the position of the given term.
f(n) = 3.75n − 27.5; 25
Step 1 out of 2:
You know that the value of f(n) is 25. Substitute 25 for f(n) in f(n) = 3.75n − 27.5.
25 = 3.75n − 27.5
= 3.75n
Answers
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
f(n) = 3.75n − 27.5
f(n) = 25
Put f(n) = 25 in the equation :
25 = 3.75n - 27.5
25 + 27.5 = 3.75n
52.5 = 3.75n
52.5 / 3 75 = n
14 = n
The position of the term is 14
1. In the spring of 2017, the Consumer Reports National Research Center conducted a survey of 1007 adults to learn about their major health-care concerns. The survey results showed that 574 of the respondents lack confidence they will be able to afford health insurance in the future. Develop a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of adults who lack confidence they will be able to afford health insurance in the future.
Answers
Answer:
The correct answer is "1668". A further solution is provided below.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the question,
Estimated proportion,
[tex]\hat{p} = \frac{574}{1007}[/tex]
[tex]=0.57[/tex]
Margin of error,
E = 0.02
Level of confidence,
= 90%
= 0.90
Critical value,
[tex]Z_{0.10}=1.65[/tex]
Now,
⇒ [tex]0.02=1.65\times \sqrt{\frac{0.57\times 0.43}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]0.0004=2.7225\times \frac{0.2451}{n}[/tex]
[tex]n=\frac{2.7225\times 0.2451}{0.0004}[/tex]
[tex]=1668.21[/tex]
or,
[tex]n \simeq 1668[/tex]

so when ever 3[tex]x^{3}[/tex]-12x=0 then this is equation is true, soooo
x (3[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 12) =0
so when x = 0 this is true, but also when

15. Mark Twain one observed that the lower Mississippi River is very crooked and that over the years, as the bends and turns straighten out, the river gets shorter and shorter. Using numerical data about the length of the lower part of the river, he noticed that in the year 1700 the river was more than 1200 miles long, yet by the year 1875 it was only 973 miles long. Twain concluded that any person “can see that 742 years from now the lower Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters lone.” What is wrong with his inductive reasoning?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure he was making a joke at the expense of people who rely on mathematics rather than common sense. It is funny, but then Twain was a remarkably funny author..
The problem is that the comparison is apt using some sort of proportion, but it is absurd to think that the land holding the river would also shrink a proportional amount.
The river reached a minimum (presumably) in 1875 by cutting out all the loops that were there in 1700. The Mississippi was then a straight line from it's beginning to its delta on the gulf of Mexico. It could not get any shorter. Still, Twain managed to get laughs with his whimsical humor.
Thanks for posting. This made my evening.
a student estimates the length of a room to be 20 feet. The actual length is 20.25 feet. What is the percent error?
Answers
Answer:
Percent error=1.23%
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Estimate length of room=20 feet
Actual length of room=20.25 feet
We have to find the percent error.
To find the percent error we will find the difference between the estimate length and actual length of room.
Difference=Actual length of room-Estimate length of room
Difference=20.25-20
Difference=0.25 feet
Now,
Percent error=[tex]\frac{Difference}{actual\;length}\times 100[/tex]
Percent error=[tex]\frac{0.25}{20.25}\times 100[/tex]
Percent error=1.23%

Which of the following is an even function?

g(x) = 2x2 + 1
g(x) = 4x + 2
g(x) = 2x
Answers
Consider that choice B is the same as saying 2x^2+1x^0.
The exponents 2 and 0 are both even, which is sufficient to say that the entire polynomial function itself is also even.
Something like choice A expands out and simplifies to x^2-2x+2, and that's equivalent to saying x^2+2x^1+2x^0. The presence of the x^1 term, with its odd exponent, is what makes choice A not even (it's not odd either).
Similarly, choices C and D also have exponents of 1, so they aren't even either.

Suppose that two teams play a series of games that end when one of them has won i games. Suppose that each game played is, independently, won by team A with probability p. Find the expected number of games that are played when i = 2. Also show that this number is maximized when p= 21.
Answers
Answer:
a) E(x) = -2p^2 + 2p + 2
b) Number is maximized when p = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine the Expected number of games when ( i ) = 2
The number of possible combinations that both teams win two games :
AA, BB, ABB, ABA, BAA, BAB = 6 combinations
P( team A winning ) = p
P( team B wins ) = 1 - p
Attached below is the detailed solution on the expected number of games
expected number of games ; E(x) = -2p^2 + 2p + 2
ii) Number is maximized when p = 1/2
In this exercise we will use the knowledge of probability and combination, so we have what will be:
a)[tex]E(x) = -2p^2 + 2p + 2[/tex]
b)[tex]p = 1/2[/tex]
Organizing the information given in the statement as:
Expected number of games when ( i ) = 2A)The number of possible combinations that both teams win two games :
[tex]AA, BB, ABB, ABA, BAA, BAB = 6 \ combinations\\P( team\ A \ winning ) = p\\P( team \ B \ wins ) = 1 - p\\E(x) = -2p^2 + 2p + 2[/tex]
B) To calculate the maximum number we must solve the quadratic equation, like this:

Answers
Answer:
The law which states that the ratio of the sine of an angle to the side opposite it is constant is the Law of Sines.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Law of Sines states that in any given triangle, the ratio of the length of any side to the sine of its opposite angle is the same for all three sides of the triangle and has a constant value.
The law which states that the ratio of the sine of an angle to the side opposite it is constant is the Law of sine.
Here,
We have to find, the law which states that the ratio of the sine of an angle to the side opposite it is constant.
What is Law of sine?
If A, B, and C are the measurements of the angles of an oblique triangle, and a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides opposite of the corresponding angles, then the ratios of the a side's length to the sine of the angle opposite the side must all be the same.
Now,
The law which states that the ratio of the sine of an angle to the side opposite it is constant is known as Law of sine.

If Joanne can paint a room in 3 hours and her sister Angela can paint the same room in 4 hours, how long (in h) would it take Joanne and Angela to paint the room working together? Round to the nearest tenth.
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If J can paint a room in 3 hours, in 1 hour she gets [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of the job done.
If A can paint a room in 4 hours, in 1 hour she gets [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the job done. We need to find out how long it takes them if they paint together. The equation for this is:
[tex]\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{x}[/tex] where x is the number of hours it takes them to get the job done together. Multiply everything through by 12x to get
4x + 3x = 12 so
7x = 12 and
x = 1.7 hours to get the room painted together.

A plane is flying at an altitude of 13,000 ft, where the temperature is -2 degrees F. The nearby airport, at an altitude of 2,000ft, is reporting precipitation. If the temperature increases 2.1 degrees F for every 1000-ft decrease in altitude, will the precipitation at the airport be rain or snow? Assume that rain changes to snow at 32 degrees F.
Is the precipitation at the airport rain or snow?
Answers
9514 1404 393
Answer:
snow
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between temperature and altitude is given as ...
T = -2 +((13000 -a)/1000)×2.1
We can put a=2000 into this equation to find the temperature at that altitude.
T = -2 +((13000 -2000)/1000)×2.1 = -2 +11(2.1) = -2 +23.1 = 21.1
The airport temperature of 21.1 °F is below 32 °F, so we expect the precipitation to be snow.
