Part 1: Mr. Nicholson accepts a job that pays an annual salary of $60,000. In his employment contract, he is given the option of choosing a) an annual raise of $3,500 or b) an annual raise of 5% of his current salary. Procedures: 1. Use the provided information to identify each of Mr. Nicholson's earning opportunities as arithmetic or geometric. For each opportunity, include all the common difference or ratio. 2. Model each of Mr. Nicholson's salary options with a recursive model that includes his potential earnings for the first three years of employment. a. $60,000 salary with an annual raise of $3,500 b. $60,000 salary with an annual raise of 5% of his current salary 3. Suppose Mr. Nicholson plans on working for his new employer for at least 9 years. use each of the recursive models to determine Mr. Nicholson plans on working for his new employer for at least 9 years. Use each of the recursive models to determine Mr. Nicho

The circle design a class which represents a circle in the (x,y) coordinate plane. a circle object is initialized with three input arguments. the center of the circle specified as the first two inputs (x,y) and the radius of the circle. by default the circle will be centered at (0, 0) with a radius of 1. c = circle(0, 0, 1) the circle class should provide proper getters/setters for the x and y coordinates of the center as well as the radius. the circle should also have a getarea() and getperimeter() method. finally, the circle should have a method called, ispointwithincircle(x, y) which takes as augments the x and y coordinate of a point and determines whether the point lies within the circle. it should return a boolean indicating whether the point is within the circle.

The probability of contamination in batch 1 of a drug (event A) is 0.16, and the probability of contamination in batch 2 of the drug (event B) is 0.09. The probability of contamination in batch 2, given that there was a contamination in batch 1, is 0.12. Given this information, which statement is true? Events A and B are independent because P(B|A) = P(A). Events A and B are independent because P(A|B) ≠ P(A). Events A and B are not independent because P(B|A) ≠ P(B). Events A and B are not independent because P(A|B) = P(A). NextReset

1. The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75 at the fair. Jermaine spent his money only on ride tickets and fair admission. The price of the fair admission is the same for everyone. Use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. (a) Write a linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission. (b) Define your variables.
