Jill is a known prostitute, rented an apartment from Jacob. Jacob is unaware of Jill’s profession and gracefully rented the apartment which was unoccupied for the last year.
Jacob saw several people coming and going from the apartment but was not concerned because he thought that they were all Jill’s friends. Indeed, Jacob was a private person who paid little attention to other people’s activities. He focused on his tasks and that of his family.
Jill did not pay her rent for 3 months and Jacob sought to enforce the right to terminate the rental agreement and sue for the outstanding rent. Jill has indicated that she will not pay any outstanding rent and told Jacob that his contract with her was illegal bearing in mind that she was using the apartment for the illegal purpose of prostitution. Advise Jacob on this matter.

What fraction of the time is a random number less than 0.5 followed by a random number greater than 0.5? c. What fraction of the random numbers are larger than 0.8? d. Freeze these random numbers. However, instead of pasting them over the original random numbers, paste them onto a new range. Then press the F9 recalculate key. The original random numbers should change, but the pasted copy should remain the same.arrow_forwardThe file P02_41.xlsx contains the cumulative number of bits (in trillions) of DRAM (a type of computer memory) produced and the price per bit (in thousandth of a cent). a.

Tyre tests reveals that the mean mileage has a normal distribution with mean 128 and standard deviation 1.76. the manufacturer wants to set the minimum guaranteed mileage so that no more than 2.5 percent of tyres will have to be replaced. The Lower limit of guaranteed mileage is :?

In our case that is 1/20% = 5 years = customer lifetime. A supermarket chain ran a social media campaign and they got 2,000 new customers. The TOTAL cost of the campaign was $250,000. These customers visited the supermarket 25 times a year. Each customer spends $100 per visit and the supermarket makes a 4% profit margin on the customer’s spend. The retention rate of the customers is 60%. What is their CLV? Assume that the profit margin is based on the customer’s non-discounted spend, then deduct the discount.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is correct regarding the EMH form?

For example, barcode and QR scanner systems are developed by programmers to use specific symbologies to map the pattern in the barcode to actual digits. The check digit or the final digit is used to determine whether the function is true (known good) or false (errors in the mapping occurred). RFID system developers also use functions to develop a pairing protocol that securely connects legitimate devices within a specific proximity. RFIDs are using in logistics, retail, warehousing, and more.arrow_forwardTrue or False: If our explanatory variables do not vary, our model will produce no estimatesarrow_forward
