Inflation causes things to cost more, and for our money to buy less (hence your grandparents saying "In my day, you could buy a cup of coffee for a nickel"). Suppose inflation decreases the value of money by 4% each year. In other words, if you have $1 this year, next year it will only buy you $0.96 worth of stuff. How much will $100 buy you in 20 years?

Answers

Answer 1

The amount that $100 will be able to buy in 20 years, given an inflation rate of 4% is $44.20

How to find the value of money?

When given the inflation rate, know that this rate is the rate at which the value of money decreases per year.

If given a rate of 4% as inflation, then the value of a dollar would decrease by 4% a year.

In 20 years therefore, the value of $100 would be:

Value in 20 years = Value today x (1 - inflation rate) ^ number of years

= 100 x (1 - 4%) ²⁰

= $44.20

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a divisional comparison of two quantities, and a proportion is the equality of two ratios. A ratio is typically expressed as x: y or x/y, although it may alternatively be read as x is to y.

Comparatively speaking, a proportional equation states that two ratios are comparable. A ratio is expressed as x: y: : z: w and is understood to mean that x is to y as z is to w. Here, w and y are not equal to 0, therefore x/y Equals z/w.

A connection between two quantities is said to be in inverse proportion if one quantity rises while the other falls, and vice versa. As a result, an inverse ratio is expressed as y ∝ 1/x.

The general equation of proportion is given by

y = k/x²

-4 = k/(-2)²

k = -4(4)=-16

y = -16/x²

When x=7, then

y= -16/49

y= - 0.326

The regression equation for 2 variables is y = -2.6 x + 10 If the value of R2 is 0.810, what is the value of R?

Answers

If the value of R² in the regression equation is 0.810, the value of R is 0.9

How to determine the value of r?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Regression equation: y = -2.6x + 10

Value of R2 = 0.810

Rewrite the above parameters properly

So, we have the following representation

y = -2.6x + 10

R² = 0.810

The variable r² represents the coefficient of determination

Recall that

R² = 0.810

This gives

r² = 0.810

Take the square roots of both sides

r = 0.9

Hence, the value of r is 0.9

The term combination refers to a method of choosing where order does not matter. an instance forming 3 letter word from ABC. the combination is ₃C₃ = 1

In permutation, order matters hence in choosing or making selection specific order should be followed. an instance here is arranging the 3 letters word from ABC. ₃P₃ = 6

₃P₃ = 3! / (3-3)! = 3! / (0!) = 3! / 1 = 3! = 6

By adjusting the fraction's denominator to 100 and applying the unitary approach.

We are given that Landyn's current monthly net pay is $560

And he does not wish to spend more than 10% of his current net pay

That means not more that $56

Now we are given 3 choices

Out of which the third one is more than 60 hence this rules out the third option. Now the first option the value is 55+55(0.005) which again is more than $56

5x-3/x-1 what is the inverse of this

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{3-x}{5-x}, \quad \{x|x\neq 5\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{5x-3}{x-1}[/tex]

As the given function is a rational function, the domain and range are restricted.

Domain:  (-∞, 1) ∪ (1, ∞).Range:  (-∞, 5) ∪ (5, ∞).

f⁻¹(x) is the notation for the inverse of the function.  

The inverse of a function is a reflection in the line y = x.

To find the inverse of the given function, swap f(x) for y:

[tex]\implies y=\dfrac{5x-3}{x-1}[/tex]

Rearrange the equation to isolate x:

[tex]\implies y(x-1)=5x-3[/tex]

[tex]\implies xy-y=5x-3[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3-y=5x-xy[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3-y=x(5-y)[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=\dfrac{3-y}{5-y}[/tex]

Swap the x for f⁻¹(x) and the y for x:

[tex]\implies f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{3-x}{5-x}[/tex]

The range of the function is the domain of the inverse function.

Therefore, the domain of the inverse function is restricted:

Domain of f⁻¹(x):  (-∞, 5) ∪ (5, ∞).

Alan has 229 songs on a playlist. He's categorized them in the following manner: 11 rock, 21 Latin American, 46 gospel, 30 country, 39 rap, 25 classical, and 57 pop. If Alan begins listening to his playlist on shuffle, what is the probability that the first song played is a rock song?

Answers

The probability of the event that the first song played by Alan is a rock song is 0.01.

What is probability

The probability of an event occurring is the ratio of the number of required outcome divided by the total number of possible outcomes. But the probability of an event say event "a" not occurring is 1 - a.

We shall calculate for the probability of the event that Alan's first song to be played is a rock song as follows:

probability of playing a rock song = 11/229

probability of not playing a Latin American song = 208/229

probability of not playing a gospel song = 183/229

probability of not playing a country song = 199/229

probability of not playing a rap song = 190/229

probability of not playing a classical song = 204/229

probability of not playing a pop song = 172/229

So,

The probability that the first song played is a rock song = (11/229) × (208/229) × (183/229) × (199/229) × (190/229) × (204/229) × (172/229)

The probability that the first song played is a rock song = 0.05 × 0.91 × 0.80 × 0.67 × 0.83 × 0.89 × 0.75

The probability that the first song played is a rock song = 0.01

Therefore the probability of the event that Alan's first song played is calculated to be 0.01 approximated to 2 decimal places.

In the coordinate plane, a parabola exists algebraically represented using the standard equation. A parabola's general equation exists written as,

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) signifies the vertex.

y² = 4ax is the typical equation for a normal parabola.

substitute the values in the above equation, we get

y = a(x - 20)² - 15

simplifying the above equation, we get

0 = a(0 - 20)² - 15

0 = 400a - 15

a = 15/400

a = 3 / 80

Therefore, the equation of the parabola exists y = 3/80(x - 20)² - 15.
