Answer:
The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:
13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000
13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000
X = 21.14%
Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

A town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50. If the dismissed employees were selected at random, what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.
Answer:
The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:
9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X
0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X
0.000073 = X
100X = 0.0073
Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Kenji simplifies 3^5 x 4^ 5and gets the result 12^10, but Darlene is not sure. Is Kenji correct? Justify your answer.
That's a question about exponentiation.
Answer:
Kenji is wrong because he does not aply the porperty correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
A exponetiation has this form:
[tex]\boxed{a^b}[/tex]
a is the base
b is the power or exponent
To understand that situation it's important to know a property about exponentiation. When we have a multiplication with the same exponent and diferent bases, the result is the multiplication of the bases with the same exponent. Let's see this above, in mathematical language:
[tex]\boxed{a^b \cdot c^b = (a\cdot c) ^b}[/tex]
Examples:
[tex]2^3 \cdot 8^3 = (2 \cdot 8) ^3 = 16^3[/tex][tex]10^9 \cdot 23^9 = (10 \cdot 23) ^9 = 230^9[/tex]Now, we can say why Kenji is wrong. It's easy simplify [tex]3^5 \cdot 4^5[/tex]! We know that the result is [tex](3 \cdot 4) ^5 = 12^5[/tex], but Kenji multiplied the bases and added the exponents, that's why he is wrong.

Consider the function z(x,y) describing the paraboloid \[z = (2x - y)^2 - 2y^2 - 3y.\]Archimedes and Brahmagupta are playing a game. Archimedes first chooses $x.$ Afterwards, Brahmagupta chooses $y.$ Archimedes wishes to minimize $z$ while Brahmagupta wishes to maximize $z.$ Assuming that Brahmagupta will play optimally, what value of $x$ should Archimedes choose?
Answer: -3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Expanding z we get
z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y
= -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.
After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose
y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z
Then
z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2
z=8x^2+6x+9/4
To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8
A map has a scale in which 1.25 inches represents 250 miles.
How many miles does 1 inch represent?
Answer: 200 miles

The table shows the results of a survey of students in two math classes.
Find P(more than 1 hour of TV | 6th period class). Round to the nearest thousandth. Be sure to show and explain your work.
Did You Watch More Than One Hour of TV Last Night?
Answer:
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, the | symbol means "given", so we can phrase the question as "Find the probability that a student watches more than one hour of TV given that they are in the 6th period class"
Next, because there is a 100% chance that the student is in the 6th period class, we can disregard the results of the 3rd period class.
Given that the student is in the 6th period class, there are 15 total students (as 9+6=15 = the sum of the yes and no answers for 6th period) and 9 students that said yes. Therefore, there is a 9/15 = 3/5 = 0.6 probability that a student watches more than 1 hour of TV given that they are in the 6th period class

Let $f$ be a linear function for which $f(6)-f(2)=12$. What is $f(12)-f(2)?$ Please explain how you found your answer. Thank you!
========================================================
Explanation:
Since f(x) is linear, this means f(x) = mx+b
m = slopeb = y interceptLet's plug in x = 6
[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(6) = m*6+b\\f(6) = 6m+b[/tex]
Repeat for x = 2
[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(2) = m*2+b\\f(2) = 2m+b[/tex]
Now subtract the two function outputs
[tex]f(6)-f(2) = (6m+b)-(2m+b)\\f(6)-f(2) = 6m+b-2m-b\\f(6)-f(2) = 4m\\[/tex]
The b terms cancel out which is very handy.
Set this equal to 12, since f(6)-f(2) = 12, and solve for m
[tex]f(6)-f(2) = 12\\4m = 12\\m = 12/4\\m = 3\\[/tex]
So the slope of f(x) is m = 3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next, plug in x = 12
[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(12) = m*12+b\\f(12) = 12m+b[/tex]
We can then say:
[tex]f(12)-f(2) = (12m+b)-(2m+b)\\f(12)-f(2) = 12m+b-2m-b\\f(12)-f(2) = 10m\\[/tex]
Lastly, we plug in m = 3
[tex]f(12)-f(2) = 10m\\f(12)-f(2) = 10*3\\f(12)-f(2) = 30\\[/tex]

Based on a poll, among adults who regret getting tattoos, 24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that six adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly selected, and find the indicated probability.
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Answer:
a) 0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b) 0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c) 0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young to get tattoos, or they do not say this. The probability of a person saying this is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
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.
24% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.
This means that [tex]p = 0.24[/tex]
Six adults
This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]
a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 0). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.24)^{0}.(0.76)^{6} = 0.1927[/tex]
0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
This is P(X = 1). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.24)^{1}.(0.76)^{5} = 0.3651[/tex]
0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
This is:
[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1927 + 0.3651 = 0.5578[/tex]
0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.
Scores on the SAT are approximately normally distributed. One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120. What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers
Answer:
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120.
This means that [tex]\mu = 500, \sigma = 120[/tex]
What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers?
The 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.85, so X when Z = 1.037.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 500}{120}[/tex]
[tex]X - 500 = 1.037*120[/tex]
[tex]X = 624.44[/tex]
The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.
