A salesman earns 40% commission on all the merchandise that he sells. Last month he sold $800 worth of merchandise. How much commission (in dollars) did he earn last month?

Answers

The commission when the salesman earns 40% commission on all the merchandise that he sells is $320.

What is percentage?

A percentage is a value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it's entirety and then multiply it by 100.

In this case, the salesman earns 40% commission on all the merchandise that he sells and last month he sold $800 worth of merchandise.

The amount in commission will be:

= Commission percentage × Sales

Write the equation of the parabola that has the same shape as f(x)=-3 x² but with vertex (5,9) in the form f(x)=a(x-h)²+k.

f(x)=?

Answers

The equation of the parabola from the vertex is f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

How to determine the equation of the parabola?

The equation of the function is given as

f(x) = 3x²

Also, we have

Vertex = (5, 9)

The form of the equation is given as

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

Where

Vertex = (h, k)

This means that

Vertex = (h, k) = (5, 9)

Substitute (h, k) = (5, 9) in the equation f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

So, we have

f(x) = a(x - 5)² + 9

This also means that

f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

The -3 is gotten from f(x) = -3x²

Hence, the equation of the parabola is f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

what is the round figure of 2089.17​

Answers

2089.17 rounded off to nearest tenths(1 decimal place) is 2089.2

2089.17 rounded off to the nearest one is 2089

When you "round to the nearest _____" regardless of what is in the blank the steps are nearly always the same:

Identify which place value you are rounding off a number. The smaller the place value, the more accurate the final result shall be.

Find the next smallest place value, the digit to the right of the place value you're rounding off to. For example, if you want to round to the nearest ten you would have to find the number at the one's place.

If the digit in the next smallest place value is less than five (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4), you leave the digit you want to round off. Any digits after that number become zeros, or drop-offs if they're located after the decimal point. This is called rounding down a number or a sequence of numbers.

If the smallest place value is greater than or equal to five (5, 6, 7, 8, or 9), you increase the value of the digit you're rounding off to by one place (+1). Any remaining digits before the decimal point become zeroes, and any digits that are after the decimal point are dropped. This is called rounding up of numbers.

For example, for rounding off a number 838.274, depending on which place value you'll round to, the final rounded-off answer will vary. Rounding off 838.274:

Rounding off the nearest hundred is 800

Rounding off the nearest ten is 840

Rounding off the nearest one is 838

Rounding off the nearest tenth is 838.3

Rounding off the nearest hundredth is 838.27

What is Probability?

Probability is the branch concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1. 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty.

Probability= sample space / total possible outcome

therefore probability of choosing two quarters in a row = 1/6×1/6= 1/36

The probability of choosing the first box =1/3

Therefore the probability of choosing the first box and picking two quarters In a row is 1/36×1/3= 1/108.

Since box two contain no quarter and box three has only one quarter , the probability of choosing two quarters in a row is 0.

How to find the rate of change?

When we are given an equation that gives the relationship between two or more variables, then by differentiating the equation with respect to time would give us a new equation that involves the rate of change of each of the given variables.

We are given the dimensions of the tank as;

Radius; r = 4 feet

Height; h = 12 feet.

The water in the tank will also have a conical shape.

By similar triangles, we know that;

r/h = 4/12

r = h/3

Now the volume of the water is;

V = ¹/₃πr²h

Put h/3 for r in this volume equation to get;

V = ¹/₃π(h/3)²h

V = (1/27)πh³

Differentiating with respect to time gives;

dV/dt = (3/27)πh²(dh/dt)

We are given;

dV/dt = 6 cubic feet per minute

h = 5

The negative amortization at the end of year 1 is $2536.50

For the year 1 there will be still 12% rate of interest going on. There is a negative balance of $200 after payment of 1st month installment.

Thus negative amortization = FV(0.01x12 - 200)

Here 0.01 is the interest per month, 12 is the number of months in a year and -200 is the negative balance in first month

negative amortization = FV(0.01x12 - 200)

The negative amortization at the end of year 1 = $2536.50

The negative amortization at the end of year 5

The loan balance at the end of year 4 = FV(0.13x12x36x800 - 102536)

The values are given below,

Left Hand Limit i.e. lim x -> 1- f(x) = 3 ,

Right Hand Limit i.e. lim x -> 1+ f(x) = 1 ,

Function value at x = 1 i.e. f(1) = 1 ,

Left Hand Derivative lim x -> 1- f'(x)= -6 and

Right Hand Derivative lim -> 1+ f'(x) = -6.

So, the function f(x) is neither continuous nor differentiable at x = 1.

Given, a piecewise function

              3㏑(3 - 2x) + 3                for x < 1

f(x) =

                   -3x² + 4                      for x ≥ 1

Now, for lim x -> 1- f(x) we will consider the function  3㏑(3 - 2x) + 3, as we have to find the Left Hand Limit of the function, at x = 1.

lim x -> 1 3㏑(3 - 2x) + 3 = 3㏑(3 - 2(1)) + 3

= 3 ㏑(1) + 3

= 0 + 3

= 3

Now, for lim x -> 1+ f(x) we will consider the function -3x² + 4, as we have to find the Right Hand Limit of the function, at x = 1.

lim x -> 1 -3x² + 4 = -3(1)² + 4

= -3 + 4

= 1

Now, for f( 1 ) we will consider the function -3x² + 4,

f(1) = -3(1)² + 4

= -3 + 4

= 1

Now, for lim x -> 1- f'(x) we will consider the derivative of the function

3㏑(3 - 2x) + 3,

lim x -> 1 -6/(3 - 2x) = -6/(3 - 2(1))

= -6

Now, for lim -> 1+ f'(x) we will consider the derivative of the function

-3x² + 4,

lim x -> 1 -6x = -6(1)

= -6

So, the function f(x) is neither continuous nor differentiable at x = 1.

Hence, lim x -> 1- f(x) = 3 , lim x -> 1+ f(x) = 1 ,  f( 1 ) = 1 , lim x -> 1- f'(x) = -6 and lim -> 1+ f'(x) = -6.

The velocity of the stream is exactly proportional to nozzle pressure. In the given scenario, instead of a stream moving at 80 mph through the fire's super-heated gases, it moves at 60 mph.

The velocity increases as the pressure decreases in a convergent nozzle, but we know that pressure is inversely related to area.

Given equation is,

f = √120p

Here p denotes the nozzle pressure in pounds per square inch

Also given that p=62 gal/min

f = √120p

In this situation, we form a system of equations, to show the maximum number of adults and students allowed for the program.

We also form an objective constraint of inequality to show the limit of the allowed number of people for the program.

Admission fee for adults = $2.00

Admission fee for students = $1.00

Equations:

The total number allowed in the theater = 240 persons

The ratio of adults to students = 2:1

The sum of ratios is 3

The number of adults = 2x, where, the number of students = x.

2x + x = 240 ... Equation 1

3x ≤ 240 ... Equation 2

If 3x = 240

x = 80

Check:

3x ≤ 240

3(80) ≤ 240

240 = 240

Allowed Admission:

Adults = 160 (2 x 80)

Students = 80 (1 x 80), which meet the second requirement or constraint.

6. The number of nickels in Bart's piggy bank is 1 less than twice the number of dimes. If the total value of the coins in the piggy bank is at least $4.35, find the smallest possible number of coins in the bank.

Answers

If the number of nickels in a piggy bank is 1 less than twice that of dimes and the total value of the coins is at least $4.35, then the smallest possible number of Nickels and Dimes is 43 and 22, respectively.

As per the question statement, The number of nickels in Bart's piggy bank is 1 less than twice the number of dimes, and the total value of the coins in this piggy bank is at least $4.35,

Then, we are required to determine the smallest possible number of individual coins in the bank.

To answer this question, first we will need to know the monetary values of nickels and dimes, that is,

(1 dime = 10 cents = $0.1), and (1 Nickel = 5 cents = $0.05).

Now let us assume that, there are "x" nickels and "y" dimes in that bank, Then as per the condition that, the number of nickels in Bart's piggy bank is 1 less than twice the number of dimes, we can write an equation with the above assumed two variables, which is, [x = (2y - 1)]...(i)

And as per the other condition that, the total value of the coins in this piggy bank is at least $4.35, we can write another equation, which is,

[(0.1y + 0.05x) = 4.35]

Or, [100(0.1y + 0.05x) = (100 * 4.35)]

Or, [(10y + 5x) = 435]...(ii)

Now substituting eqn (i) in eqn (ii), we get,

[{10y + 5(2y - 1)} = 435]

Or, [(10y + 10y - 5) = 435]

Or, [(10y + 10y) = (435 + 5)]

Or, (20y = 440)

Or, [y = (440/20)]

Or, (y = 22)

Therefore, [x = {(2 * 22) - 1}]

Or, [x = (44 - 1)]

Or, [x = 43]

That is, If the number of nickels in a piggy bank is 1 less than twice that of dimes and the total value of the coins is at least $4.35, then the smallest possible number of Nickels and Dimes is 43 and 22, respectively.

A bag contains 10 red balls, 8 green balls, and 6 blue balls. 2 balls are drawn at random at the bag. What is the probability that both balls are red?​

Answers

Answer:

Assuming every single ball has an equal chance of being drawn, then if B is the probability of drawing a blue ball and R is the probability of drawing a red ball:

B + R = 1,

since either a red or blue ball will be drawn. Since each ball has an equal chance of being drawn:

16 p = 1, or

p = 1/16

where p is the chance to draw a single ball. Since there are 10 red balls, there are ten independent and different ways to draw a red ball, which means that

R = 10 p = 10/16 = 5/8.

You can either apply the first equation to find that

B = 1 - R = 3/8

or state directly that

B = 6 p = 6/16 = 3/8

since there are six independent and different ways to draw a blue ball from the bag.

Answer:

41.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

10+8+6= 24

10/24

First, you need to calculate your grade in percentages. The total answers count 24 - it's 100%, so we to get a 1% value, divide 24 by 100 to get 0.24. Next, calculate the percentage of 10: divide 10 by 1% value (0.24), and you get 41.67% - it's your percentage grade
