Q:

The state lottery board is examining the machine that randomly picks the lottery numbers. On each trial, the machine outputs a ball with one of the digits $$0$$ through $$9$$ on it. (The ball is then replaced in the machine.) The lottery board tested the machine for $$25$$ trials and got the following results.

Outcome             0    1   2    3   4  5  6  7  8  9

Number of Trials         1     2   2    3   1  3  2  3  3  5

(a) From these results, compute the experimental probability of getting an even number.

(b) Assuming that the machine is fair, compute the theoretical probability of getting an even number. (c) Assuming that the machine is fair, choose the statement below that is true.

-With a small number of trials, it is surprising when the experimental probability is much less than the theoretical probability.

-With a small number of trials, it is not surprising when the experimental probability is much less than the theoretical probability.

Q:

Find the net amount due on this invoice. Assume each is paid within the discount period. Round dollar amounts to the nearest cent if necessary. Don't forget that the terms $$2 / 10 , n / 30$$ mean that the customer receives a $$2 \%$$ cash discount if the invoice is paid within $$10$$ days of the invoice date. If the invoice isn't paid within $$10$$ days, the net is due in $$30$$ days.

Q:

In a certain region, the appraised value of a house is $$\frac { 8 } { 10 }$$ of its market value. If the market value of Owen's house is $$\ 195,000$$ , what is the appraised value? Remember to write a summary statement.

Q:

Using the average daily balance method, compute the average daily balance in the following.

A customer's charge account shows a balance of $$\ 390$$ on January $$1$$ . A payment of

$$\ 100$$ was made on January $$16$$ . Purchases of $$\ 190$$ were made on January $$23$$ . An annual rate of $$19.5 \%$$ is applied to the account.

Step 1: Determine how many days the balance remains the same. For example, if a payment was made on the 10th, the balance remained the same for $$9$$ days because $$10$$ $$- 1 = 9$$ .

Step 2: Subtract any payments made (or add any purchases) with the beginning balance.

Step 3: Determine how many days the balance remains the same again. Repeat as necessary.

Step 4: Find the daily balances by multiplying the balances by the number of days in effect, then add those balances together and divide by the number of days in the month to get the average daily balance.

Step 5: Multiply the answer to step $$4$$ with the monthly rate to get the finance charge.

Q:

Using the average daily balance method, compute the finance charge in the following. A customer's charge account shows a balance of $$\ 16,822.11$$ on August $$1$$ . A payment of

$$\ 450$$ was made on August $$5$$ . Purchases of $$\ 1,642.78$$ were made on August $$23$$ . The average daily balance is $$\ 16,907.11$$ . An annual rate of $$25.5 \%$$ is applied to the account. Step 1: Determine how many days the balance remains the same. For example, if a payment was made on the 10th, the balance remained the same for $$9$$ days because $$10$$ - $$1 = 9 .$$

Step $$2$$ : Subtract any payments made (or add any purchases) with the beginning balance. Step $$3$$ : Determine how many days the balance remains the same again. Repeat as necessary. Step $$4$$ : Find the daily balances by multiplying the balances by the number of days in effect, then add those balances together and divide by the number of days in the month to get the average daily balance. Step $$5$$ : Multiply the answer to step $$4$$ with the monthly rate to get the finance charge.
