Xian and his cousin Kal both collect stamps. Xian has 52 stamps, and Kal has 68 stamps. The boys recently joined different stamp-collecting dubs. Xian's club will send him 20 new stamps per month. Kai's club will
send him 16 new stamps per month. After how many months will Xlan and Kal have the same number of
stamps? How many stamps will each have?

In 4 months, they will both have 132 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = # of months

52 + 20x = 68 + 16x

4x = 16

x = 4

Plug x value into both expressions and see if it checks out

52 + 20(4) = 68 + 16(4)

52 + 80 = 68 + 64

132 = 132

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old. 

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

                                          probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
