A​ salesperson's commission rate is 5 ​%. What is the commission from the sale of $ 44,000 worth of​ furnaces? Use pencil and paper. Suppose sales would double. What would be true about the​ commission? Explain without using any calculations.

Answers

Answer 1
So, for the first question, you just want to multiply 5% by 44,000 to find how much is 5% of 44,000.

5% = 0.05

0.05 * 44,000 = 2,200

So the salesperson makes 2,200 dollars from the sale of 44,000.

If sales doubled, then she would make the double amount.
Answer 2

a. The commission from the sale of $ 44,000 worth of​ furnaces is $1,800

b. Commission would double as well.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a minimum number or ratio that is measured by a fraction of 100.

We are given that salesperson's commission rate is 5 ​%

Then Commission paid on $36,000 worth of furnaces with a rate of 5% is:

= Amount of sales x commission rate

= 36,000 x 5%

= $1,800

If the sales were to double, the commission would be based on double the amount so it would double;

= 36,000 x 2

= $72,000

Commission = 72,000 x 5%

= $3,600

therefore Commission is doubled.

how many times more respondents chose silver than red round to the nearest tenth if necessary silver 0.2 red 0.09

Answers

well, 0.2 is the same as 0.20, and 0.20-0.09 is 0.11.

Answer: 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Proportion of choosing silver = 0.2 =0.20.

Proportion of choosing red= 0.09

Clearly, 0.20> 0.09

Now, the number of times more respondents chose silver than red will be :-

[tex] n=\dfrac{0.20}{0.09}\\\\=\dfrac{20}{9}\\\\=2.22222\approx2.2\ \text{ Rounded to the nearest tenth}[/tex]

Hence, 2.2 times the respondents chose silver than red.

an expression, that is a function, will have no x-repeats on the x,y pairs.

and expression that is a function, and has an inverse that is also a function, will have no x-repeats, and no y-repeats either, so the pairs will be unique for the set, let's do some checking then,

Answer:

Which function has an inverse that is also a function? a {(–1, 3), (0, 4), (1, 14), (5, 6), (7, 2)} b {(–1, 2), (0, 4), (1, 5), (5, 4), (7, 2)} c {(–1, –2), (0, 4), (1, 3), (5, 14), (7, 4)} d {(–1, 4), (0, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3), (7, 1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

It is called the inverse or reciprocal function of f to another function f − 1 that fulfills that:

If f (a) = b, then f − 1 (b) = a.

The inverse of a function when it exists is unique, so that neither "X" nor "Y" can be repeated.

If we analyze the possibilities, in the case of b, c, and d, the value 4 of the "Y" is repeated twice; in the case of a, that does not happen, therefore the answer is: a {(–1, 3), (0, 4), (1, 14), (5, 6), (7, 2) }

A dealer dealt the following cards from a shuffled deck: 3 , 2 , 2 , A , K , Q , K , 5 , 2 , 6 4 , 5 , K , 2 , 7 , 6 , A , J , J , A What was the experimental probability of dealing a black card?

Answers

Answer:

Total number of cards in shuffled deck=3 , 2 , 2 , A , K , Q , K , 5 , 2 , 6, 4 , 5 , K , 2 , 7 , 6 , A , J , J , A .

Total number of cards in a deck of card = 52 cards, out of which 26 are black cards and 26 are red card.

As, it is not given that out of the 20 cards dealt by dealer is either red card or black card.

A=3=2B +1 R or 1 B + 2 R

2=4=2 R +2 B

3=1=1 R or 1 B

4=1=1R or 1 B

5=2=2 R or 2 B

6=2=2 R or 2 B

7=1=1 R or 1 B

8=0

9=0

10=0

J=2= 2 R or 2 B

K=3= 2 R + 1 B or 1 R +2 B

Q=1=1 R or 1 B

If you count total number of black cards among the number of cards dealt by dealer, the possibilities of black card drawn is either 15 or 16 from 20 cards drawn.

As, Experimental probability is the probability obtained through experiment which is different from theoretical Probability.

Total number of cards =52

So, Probability of dealing with black cards by dealer which is either 15 or 16 in number is given by

[tex]=\frac{\text{total favorable outcome}}{\text{total possible outcome}}\\\\\frac{15}{52} {\text{or}} \frac{16}{52}=\frac{4}{13}.[/tex]

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 20 cards in total.

8 are black: 3,2,K,5,6,4,A,J

12 are red: 2,A,K,Q,2,5,K,2,7,6,J,A

so that means 8 of the 20 are black or 8/20

and 8/20 is 40% which is your answer.

It takes 40 min for a bus to travel the 36 miles from Framingham to Worcester. A car traveling from Worcester to Framingham moves 1.5 times as fast as the bus. If the car and the bus start moving towards each other simultaneously, after how many minutes will they meet?

Answers

The velocity of the bus is:

velocity (bus) = 36 miles / 40 min

velocity (bus) = 0.9 miles / min

 

Since the car is 1.5 times faster, so the velocity of the car is:

velocity (car) = 1.5 * 0.9 miles / min

velocity (car) = 1.35 miles / min

 

At the meeting point, the sum of the distance is equal to 36 miles. Therefore:

1.35 t + 0.9 t = 36

2.25 t = 36

t = 16 min

 

So they will meet after 16 minutes.

What is the rate of change of y with respect to x for this function?
HELP FOR BRAINLYEST

Answers

First let's assume that the table contains points on a straight line.  Then all we have to do is to determine the slope of that line.

Suppose we go from (0,3) to (7,-28.5).
                                           -28.5-3        -31.5
Then the slope, m, is m = ------------- = ---------- = - 9/2, or - 4.5.
                                              7-0              7

Let's check this result!

Suppose that y = mx + b governs the relationship between x and y.


Then y = -4.5x + b

suppose we find b by substituting the coordinates from the point (0,3):

3 = -4.5(0) + b

Then b = 3, and y = -4.5x + 3.  Does the point (-2,12) satisfy this equation?

Does 12 = -4.5(-2) + 3?  Does 12 = 9 + 3?  YES.

So y = -4.5x + 3 is the equation from which these points came, and the rate of change of y with respect to x is the slope m = -4.5, or m = -9/2.

a rectangular flower garden has area of 32 square feet. if the width of the garden is 4 feet less than the length, what is the perimeter, in feet, of the garden?

Answers

let length be x feet
length= x 
width=x-4
area = 32
length * width=32
x(x-4)=32
x^2 - 4 x -32=0
(x-8)(x+4)=0
x=8 feet
length=8 feet
width=4 feet
perimeter=2(len+wid)
               =2(8+4)
                2*12=24 feet
Final answer:

To find the perimeter of the rectangular flower garden, we first need to find its dimensions. Once we have the length and width, we can calculate the perimeter by using the formula: P = 2(length + width). Therefore, the perimeter of the garden is 4x - 8 feet.

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of the rectangular flower garden, we first need to find its dimensions. Let's use x to represent the length of the garden.

According to the problem, the width of the garden is 4 feet less than the length, so the width would be x - 4.

The area of the garden is 32 square feet, so we can set up the equation: x * (x - 4) = 32.

We can solve this equation by factoring or by using the quadratic formula to find the length.

Once we have the length and width, we can calculate the perimeter by using the formula: P = 2(length + width).

Substituting the values, we get P = 2(x + x - 4), which simplifies to P = 4x - 8.

Therefore, the perimeter of the garden is 4x - 8 feet.

Answers

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The value of function [tex]f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7[/tex] at x = -4 is -55

Step-by-step explanation:

  Given : [tex]f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7[/tex]

We have to find the value at f(-4) and choose the correct option from the given options.

Consider the given function [tex]f(x) = -2x^2 + 4x- 7[/tex]

Since, we have to find the value of f(-4) that is value of f(x) at x = -4

Substitute, value of x = -4 in given function, we have,

[tex]f(-4) = -2(-4)^2 + 4(-4)- 7[/tex]

Simplify, we have,

Find the point p where the line x = 1 + t, y = 2t, z = -3t intersects the plane x + y - z = 3.

Answers

The given lines are
x = 1 + t
y = 2t
z = -3t

The plane is x + y - z = 3

If the lines intersect the plane at a point p, then the lines should satisfy the equation of the plane.
That is,
(1 + t) + (2t) - (-3t) = 3
1 + t + 2t + 3t = 3
1 + 6t = 3
6t = 2
t = 1/3

Therefore the coordinates of the point p are
x = 1 + 1/3 = 4/3
y = 2(1/3) = 2/3
z = -3(1/3) = -1

That is p (4/3, 2/3, -1)

There are about 4200 college presidents in the United States, and they have annual incomes with a distribution that is skewed instead of being normal. Many different samples of 40 college presidents are randomly selected, and the mean annual income is computed for each sample. What is the approximate shape of the sample means?

Answers

Because a mean is an average, the means of each of the samples of 40 college presidents' incomes will have less of a skew than the actual income distribution in dollars of all of them. That is because outliers, like a president who is paid $2 million a year, will be averaged in with many others who are paid less. The shape of the curve of the means will depend upon how many different samples of 40 presidents are included, with the shape becoming more bell-like (normal distribution) the more random samples are included. Another consideration is how often the outliers are included and how big the income skew is that you start with. For example, if 2 college presidents are earning $2 million a year and the other 4,198 are earning $200,000 or less then the shape of your curve will depend greatly upon the number of times those two high earners are randomly selected and factored into the mean.

Final answer:

The distribution of sample means for college presidents' incomes, based on many different samples of size 40, will approximate a normal distribution due to the Central Limit Theorem.

Explanation:

The question regarding the distribution of sample means for college presidents' incomes pertains to a concept in statistics known as the Central Limit Theorem. When dealing with a population whose distribution is skewed, the distribution of sample means tends to become approximately normal if the sample size is large enough, which is usually considered to be over 30. As multiple samples of size 40 are taken in this case, the distribution of the sample means for the college presidents' annual incomes should approximate a normal distribution.
