comet powder company has purchased a piece of equipment costing $100,000. It is expected to generate a ten-year stream of benefi

ts amounting to $16,273 per year. Determine the rate of return comet expects to earn from this equipment.

Answer:

60.27%

Step-by-step explanation:

Purchasing price is $100,000

Benefit per year is $ 16,273

Benefit after 10 years = $16,273*10 = $160,273

Returns in 10 years = $160,273-$100,000 = $60,273

Rate of return = 60,273/100,000 * 100%

=60.27%

Answer:

c = 0.165

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x, y) = cx y(1 + y) for 0 ≤ x ≤ 3 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 3,

f(x, y) = 0 otherwise.

Required:

The value of c

To find the value of c, we make use of the property of a joint probability distribution function which states that

$\int\limits^a_b \int\limits^a_b {f(x,y)} \, dy \, dx = 1$

where a and b represent -infinity to +infinity (in other words, the bound of the distribution)

By substituting cx y(1 + y) for f(x, y) and replacing a and b with their respective values, we have

$\int\limits^3_0 \int\limits^3_0 {cxy(1+y)} \, dy \, dx = 1$

Since c is a constant, we can bring it out of the integral sign; to give us

$c\int\limits^3_0 \int\limits^3_0 {xy(1+y)} \, dy \, dx = 1$

Open the bracket

$c\int\limits^3_0 \int\limits^3_0 {xy+xy^{2} } \, dy \, dx = 1$

Integrate with respect to y

$c\int\limits^3_0 {\frac{xy^{2}}{2} +\frac{xy^{3}}{3} } \, dx (0,3}) = 1$

Substitute 0 and 3 for y

$c\int\limits^3_0 {(\frac{x* 3^{2}}{2} +\frac{x * 3^{3}}{3} ) - (\frac{x* 0^{2}}{2} +\frac{x * 0^{3}}{3})} \, dx = 1$

$c\int\limits^3_0 {(\frac{x* 9}{2} +\frac{x * 27}{3} ) - (0 +0) \, dx = 1$

$c\int\limits^3_0 {(\frac{9x}{2} +\frac{27x}{3} ) \, dx = 1$

Add fraction

$c\int\limits^3_0 {(\frac{27x + 54x}{6}) \, dx = 1$

$c\int\limits^3_0 {\frac{81x}{6} \, dx = 1$

Rewrite;

$c\int\limits^3_0 (81x * \frac{1}{6}) \, dx = 1$

The $\frac{1}{6}$ is a constant, so it can be removed from the integral sign to give

$c * \frac{1}{6}\int\limits^3_0 (81x ) \, dx = 1$

$\frac{c}{6}\int\limits^3_0 (81x ) \, dx = 1$

Integrate with respect to x

$\frac{c}{6} * \frac{81x^{2}}{2} (0,3) = 1$

Substitute 0 and 3 for x

$\frac{c}{6} * \frac{81 * 3^{2} - 81 * 0^{2}}{2} = 1$

$\frac{c}{6} * \frac{81 * 9 - 0}{2} = 1$

$\frac{c}{6} * \frac{729}{2} = 1$

$\frac{729c}{12} = 1$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{12}{729}$

$c = \frac{12}{729}$

$c = 0.0165 (Approximately)$

The population of a city is expected to decrease by 6% next year. If x represents the current population, write an expression th

Kaylis [27]

Given:

Current population = x

The population of a city is expected to decrease by 6% next year.

To find:

The expression that represents the expected population next year.

Solution:

We have,

Current population = x

Decrease rate = 6%.

Expected population next year = Current population - 6% of Current population

= $x-\dfrac{6}{100}x$

= $x-0.06x$

= $0.94x$

Therefore, the expression for the expected population next year is 0.94x.
