On the front lawn of Sebastian’s 1-acre property stood a 55-year-old willow tree. One hot summer day there was a massive lightning storm which struck the tree causing it to split right down the middle. The tree was very badly damaged and had to be removed from the property. The cost to remove the tree was $800 and the tree was valued at $550. Sebastian’s home is worth $305,000 and he has a $500 deductible on his policy. How much, if anything, his homeowners’ policy pays and how much will Sebastian have to pay? Show all workings to get full marks.

Expert Solution
value from the tree = $550

therefore, net cost of removing the tree = $250
$250 will be paid by Sebastian to remove the tree from his lawn.

I'm teaching a conceptual introduction to physics for American
13-15 year old students this summer.
One of the main ideas I want to hit on is the relationship
between energy conservation, equilibrium, and dissipative forces.
(e.g. When a box sliding over the floor comes to rest, its kinetic
energy mostly goes into heating the floor. We expect this because
there there are many degrees of freedom in the floor, while the
bulk motion of the box is at most six...

Your company sells life insurance. You charge a 55 year old man
$60 for a one year, $100,000 policy. If he dies over the course of
the next year you pay out $100,000. If he lives, you keep the $60.
Based on historical data (relative frequency approximation) the
average 55 year old man has a 0.9998 probability of living another
year.

Eighty-one-year-old Stella Liebeck was a passenger in a parked
car, when she accidentally spilled scalding-hot McDonald's coffee
on herself. (McDonald's allegedly kept its coffee at 180 degrees,
40 degrees hotter than most people serve coffee, to maintain peak
flavor). The spill caused second and third degree burns that
required skin graphs and left scars.
When McDonald's offered Liebeck $800 of the $2000 medical expenses
she had asked for, Liebeck sued. After hearing that there had been
700 complaints about scalding...
