$66,092.50 Step-by-step explanation: The car price was $17,000 back in 1988. The annual rate of inflation from 1988 to 2017 was 3.54%. After factoring in inflation, $17,000.00 from 1988 is equivalent to $66,092.50 in 2017. Thus, the approximate cost of that vehicle in 2017 would be $66,092.50.

The probability of drawing two aces from a standard deck is 0.0059. We know this probability, but we don't know if the first car
Inessa [12570]

Answer:Option C is correct.

C. The events are independent because the first ace was replaced before drawing the second ace.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the probability of drawing two aces from a standard deck is 0.0059

If the first card is drawn and replaced, it alters the probability. Performing draws with replacement makes each event independent of one another

The chance of getting an ace on the first draw is 4/52, and with the replacement, the probability remains 4/52 for the second draw

Therefore, if we consider the first and second draws as event A and event B respectively, these events are independent

C. The events are independent because the first ace was replaced before drawing the second ace.

Which property does each equation demonstrate? x2 + 2x = 2x + x2 (3z4 + 2z3) – (2z4 + z3) = z4 + z3 (2x2 + 7x) + (2y2 + 6y) = (2
babunello [11817]

Response:

1. Closure

2. Distributive

3. Closure

Detailed explanation:

In this scenario, we are examining the properties that each equation demonstrates.

The first equation shows the closure property.

This indicates that whether we add in one direction or the other, the result remains unchanged. Therefore, we conclude that addition conforms to the closure property in this case.

The third equation also shows the closure property. Regardless of how we approach the addition for this equation, the outcome remains consistent.

The second equation displays the distributive property.

Each element within the parentheses is multiplied by the negative sign before we proceed with further calculations.

When jumping, a flea rapidly extends its legs, reaching a takeoff speed of 1.0 m/s over a distance of 0.50 mm . part a what is t
zzz [12365]

The flea experiences an acceleration of 1,000 m/s².

Detailed explanation

This scenario involves motion with constant acceleration.

The relevant variables include the following.

\boxed{u \ or \ v_i = initial \ velocity}

\boxed{u \ or \ v_t \ or \ v_i = terminal \ or \ final \ velocity}

\boxed{a = acceleration \ (constant)}

\boxed{d = distance \ travelled}

We know the flea attains a takeoff velocity of 1.0 m/s over a distance of 0.50 mm.

The flea starts from rest, so the initial velocity is zero. The question asks for the flea's acceleration during leg extension.

The equation we apply is:

\boxed{ \ v^2 = u^2 + 2ad \ }

  • a = acceleration (m/s²)
  • u = initial speed = 0 m/s
  • v = takeoff velocity = 1.0 m/s
  • d = displacement = 0.50 mm

First, convert 0.50 mm to meters: \boxed{0.50 \ mm = 0.50 \times 10^{-3} \ m = 5.0 \times 10^{-4} \ m}

Solution steps:

Rearrange the formula to isolate acceleration (a).

\boxed{ \ v^2 = u^2 + 2ad \ }

\boxed{ \ v^2 - u^2 = 2ad \ }

\boxed{ \ 2ad = v^2 - u^2 \ }

\boxed{ \ a = \frac{v^2 - u^2}{2d} \ }

Insert the given values into the rearranged equation.

\boxed{ \ a = \frac{(1.0)^2 - (0)^2}{2(5.0 \times 10^{-4})} \ }

\boxed{ \ a = \frac{1}{10 \times 10^{-4}} \ }

\boxed{ \ a = \frac{1}{1 \times 10^{-3}} \ }

\boxed{ \ a = 1 \times 10^{3}\ = 1,000 \ m/s^2 \ }

This yields the flea's acceleration as 1,000 m/s².
