What is a NPV  net present value ?

The difference between the current value of cash inflows and withdrawals over a period of time is known as net present value (NPV). To evaluate the profitability of a proposed investment or project, NPV is used in capital budgeting and investment planning.

Using the appropriate discount rate, computations are performed to determine the current value of a stream of future payments, or NPV. Projects that have a positive NPV are generally worthwhile pursuing, whereas those that have a negative NPV are not.

The current worth of a stream of payments from a business, project, or investment is determined using net present value (NPV).You must predict the timing and size of future cash flows in order to determine NPV, and you must choose a discount rate that is equal to the least allowable rate of return.Your cost of capital or the rewards offered by substitute investments with equivalent risk may be reflected in the discount rate.Positive NPV indicates that the rate of return on a project or investment will be higher than the discount rate.

What is an isosceles triangle?

In Mathematics, an isosceles triangle can be defined as a type of triangle that has two (2) of its sides equal in length and two (2) equal angles. This ultimately implies that, an isosceles triangle comprises two (2) angles and two (2) side lengths that have the same measure or are equal in magnitude.

In every isosceles triangle such as triangle PQR (ΔPQR), both the median and altitude are the same and they will lie on the same line segment when drawn from the top to the base in accordance with the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.

In conclusion, we can logically deduce that the vertex that runs from point T to point S is a perpendicular bisector that bisects line PQ into two (2) equal halves.

through: (-1,-5), parallel to y=-4x+4

Answers

The function that is parallel to the graph of y = -4x + 4 is y = -4x - 9

How to determine the parallel line equation?

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

y=-4x+4

To start with, we need to express the equation properly

So, we have the following representation

y = -4x + 4

Also, from the question;

We have the following points

The point is given as

Point = (-1, -5) i.e.  (x, y) = (-1, -5)

The equation of a line can be represented as

y = mx + c

Where

Slope = m

By comparing the equations, we have the following

m = -4

This means that the slope is -4

The slopes of parallel lines have the same values

This means that the slope of the other line is -4

The equation of the line is then calculated as

y = m(x - x₁) + y₁

Where

m = -4

(x₁, y₁) = (-1, -5)

So, we have

y = -4(x + 1) - 5

Open the brackets

y = -4x - 4 - 5

Evaluate the like terms

y = -4x - 9

Hence, the line has an equation of y = -4x - 9

What is the law of cosines?

The square of a side of a plane triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other sides minus twice the product of those sides and the cosine of the angle between them, according to a trigonometry rule.

Here, we have

This line is 300 mi long and makes an angle of 40° from the horizontal (based on N50°E bearing).

From point A draw a horizontal line to point C. This line=(35/60)*250=145.8 mi.

Draw a line connecting point C to point B. You now have a triangle with sides AB = 300 mi and AC = 145.8 mi and their included angle of 40.

Using the Law of cosines to find CB:

(CB)² = (AB)²+(AC)² -2*AB*AC*cos 40°

(CB)² = (300)²+(145.8)²-2*300*145.8*cos 40°

(CB)²  = 90000+21257 - 46928 = 64329

With the given coordinates (-3, 1) and (0, 4), the slope is 1.

What is slope of a line?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The formula to find the slope of a line is slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Here,

1) (-3, 1) and (0, 4)

Δy=(4-1)=3 and Δx=(0(-3))=3

So, m= Δy/Δx =3/3 =1

2) (-6, 27) and (2, 3)

Δy=(3-27)=24 and Δx=(2-(-6))=8

So, m= Δy/Δx =24/8 =3

3) (5, 27) and (0, -8)

Δy=(-8-27)=-35 and Δx=(0-5)=-5

So, m= Δy/Δx =(-35)/(-5) =7

4) (1, 0) and (-7, -24)

Δy=(-24-0)=-24 and Δx=(-7-1)=-8

So, m= Δy/Δx =(-24)/(-8) =3

5) (-3, 20) and (-5, 32)

Δy=(32-20)=12 and Δx=(-5-(-3))=-2

So, m= Δy/Δx =12/(-2) =-6

6) (5, -4) and (0, -9)

Δy=(-9-(-4))=-5 and Δx=(0-5)=-5

So, m= Δy/Δx =(-5)/(-5) =1

7) (-8, -2) and (-1, -4.5)

Δy=(-4.5-(-2))=-2.5 and Δx=(-1-(-8))=7

So, m= Δy/Δx = -2.5/7

8) (-7, -2) and (6, 11)

Δy=(11-(-2))=13 and Δx=(6-(-7))=13

So, m= Δy/Δx =13/13 =1

9) (-2, -6.5) and (4, -8)

Δy=(-8-(-6.5))= -1.5 and Δx=(4-(-2))=6

So, m= Δy/Δx = -1.5/6 = -1/4

Therefore, slope of a line with the coordinates (-7, -2) and (6, 11) is 1.

Answers

Using ratios we know that the number of guides on Sunday was 6.

What are ratios?

In mathematics, a ratio shows how frequently one number appears in another.

For instance, the ratio of oranges to lemons in a fruit plate would be eight to six if there were eight oranges and six lemons.

Oranges make up 8:14 of the total fruit, whereas lemons make up 6:8 of the total fruit.

So, we know that the proportion of tourists to guides was the same on both days of the weekend.

On Saturday, the ratio was:

120:18

120/18

20/3

Ratio: 20:3

So, a number of guides on Sunday will be:

40:x

40/20 = x/3

A linear function would best fit the data because as x increases, the y values change by an approximate constant. The rate of change of this function is approximately 8950 people a year.

How to classify a function as linear or exponential?

To classify a function as linear or exponential, we have to check whether the differences or the quotients between consecutive terms are constant, as follows:

Constant differences -> Linear function.Constant quotient -> Exponential functions.

The differences for the consecutive terms in the table are given as follows:

75,232 - 66,237 = 8,995.66,237 - 57,332 = 8,905.57,332 - 48,391 = 8,941.

The ratios for the table are given as follows:

77,252/66,237 = 1.166.66,237/57,332 = 1.155.57,332/48,391 = 1.185.

The differences have less variation then the ratios, then a linear function best models this data, with an slope of approximately (8995 + 8905 + 8941)/3 = 8947, which is the mean of these differences.

(rounded to 8950).

complete the following statements. in general, % of the values in a data set lie at or below the 70th percentile. % of the values in a data set lie at or above the 20th percentile.. if a sample consists of 600 test scores, of them would be at or below the 86th percentile. if a sample consists of 600 test scores, of them would be at or above the 62th percentile.

Answers

If a sample consists of 600 test scores, 516 of them would be at or below the 86th percentile. If a sample consists of 600 test scores, 228 of them would be at or above the 62th percentile.

What is percentile?

A percentile is a score that compares a specific score to the scores of the other members of a group. It displays the proportion of other scores that a given score outperformed. For instance, if you have a test score of 75 and are placed in the 85th percentile, it signifies that your score is greater than those of 85% of other test takers.

Given that,

In general, 70 % of the values in a data set lie at or below the 70th percentile.

20 % of the values in a data set lie at or above the 20th percentile.

Generally percentile defines the percentage of a data set that is below or at a value that is being considered.

Hence the percentage of the values of a data set that lies below or at the 16th percentile is  16%

Also  the values of a data set that lies below or at the 24th percentile is  24%

Given a sample of 600 test scores , the number of test scores that will be at or below the 86th percentile is 86% of  600 which is mathematically represented as:

K = [tex]\frac{86}{100}[/tex] × 600

K = 516 test scores

Given a sample of 600 test scores , the number number of test scores that will be above  the 62 th percentile is (100 - 62 = 38 )% of  600 which is mathematically represented as:

a = [tex]\frac{38}{100}[/tex] × 600

a = 228 test scores.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

let the three angles are x, y and z.

x+ y + z = 180............(E3)

The sum of the measures of the second and third angles is three times the measure of the first angle.

So, y+ z = 3x

3x- y- z= 0.............(E1)

and, third angle is 19 more than the second

z= y+ 19

y- z= -19..........(E2)

So, E1+E2, and E3-E2,

3x- 2z= -19

x+ 2z= 161

Now, adding above

4x = 142

x= 35.5

and, y + z = 106.5, y- z = -19

Again, adding

2y= 87.5

y= 43.75

and, z= 62.75

To prove the given statement we can take into account the matrix produced by the tuples (1,2,0), (1,0,1) and (1,0,1). The three vectors are linearly independent if the matrix's where determinant is nonzero.

det ( -1 2 0

        -1 0 1

         1  0 1 )   = 4

Now that P2 has a dimension of 3, those three vectors serve as the foundation for P2 by definition.

Therefore, the polynomial forms the basis of P.

Algebraic expressions called polynomials include coefficients and variables. Indeterminates are another name for variables. For polynomial expressions, we can do mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and positive integer exponents but not division by variables. x2+x-12 is an illustration of a polynomial with a single variable.

The expression 12x + 8 represents the preimeter of a square. Write 12x+ 8 as a product. Then tell what expressions represents one side of the square.

Answers

Answer:

(3+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a square = 4L

L is the length of one side of the square

Given the expression 12 + 8 that represents the perimeter of a square, factoring out 4 from both terms;

12 + 8

= (4*3)+(4*2)

= 4(3+2)

Comparing with 4L

4L = 4(3+2)

Divide both sides by 4

4L/4 = 4(3+2)/4

L = (3+2)

Hence the expression that represents one side of the square is (3+2).

The total years taken to double the money according to Compounding will be  12.5 years.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is that the interest on savings calculated on each the initial principal and therefore the accumulated interest from previous periods.

Main body:

Given :

rate = 6%

amount = $2500

Total amount = $5000

Compounded semi -anually,

so formula becomes,

Total amount = amount (1+r/200)^2t

T = [tex]A (1+\frac{r/2}{100})^{2t}[/tex])

5000 = 2500 (1+3/100)^2t

2 = [tex](1+0.03)^{2t}[/tex]

2 = [tex]1.03^{2t}[/tex]

taking log on both sides

log 2 = 2t *log 1.03

0.3/0.012 = 2t

t = 12.5 years

Hence the time taken to double the money is 12.5 years.
