The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let y represent the total sales for x weekly sales, m represent the commision and b represent the basic salary. Hence:

400 = 1000m + b  (1)

Also:

300 = 500m + b  (2)

Hence:

m = 0.2 = 20%, b = $200

The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200

If you deposit $25,000 now at 6.5% compounded quarterly, how much will you have in 30 years?
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$172,984.44

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt} to compute the final amount

Here P is the principal amount, the original deposit = $25,000

r is the annual interest rate = 6.5% = 0.065 in decimal

n is the number of times the compounding takes place. Here it is quarterly so it is 4 times a year

t is the number of time periods ie 30 years

A is the accrued amount ie principal + interest

Computing different components,

nt = 4 \times 30 = 120

r/n =  0.065/4 = .01625

1 + r/n = 1.01625

(1 + r/n)^{nt} = 1.01625^{120}

Therefore

A = 25000 \times 1.0625^{120} = 172,984.44

The board of an internet start up company has sixteen members. if one person is in charge of research and one is in charge of ma
Brilliant_brown [7]

The number of ways in which the position of one person in charge of research and one person in charge of marketing can be chosen from the board of 16 members is <u>240 ways</u>. Computed using permutations.

The permutation is the way of choosing a set of objects from a larger set of objects in a specific sequence.

If we are choosing r number of objects, from n number of objects in a specific sequence, then we follow permutation, and it is given as:

nPr = n!{(n - r)!}.

In the question, we are asked to find the number of ways in which the position of one person in charge of research and one person in charge of marketing can be chosen from the board of 16 members.

Since the position is to be chosen in a specific order, we will follow permutation.

The number of positions to be chosen (r) = 2.

The number of members (n) = 16.

Thus, the number of ways is given as:

nPr = n!{(n - r)!},

or, 16P2 = 16!{(16 - 2)!},

or, 16P2 = 16!/14! = 15*16 = 240.

Thus, the number of ways in which the position of one person in charge of research and one person in charge of marketing can be chosen from the board of 16 members is <u>240 ways</u>. Computed using permutations.

A continuous probability distribution having a rectangular shape, where the probability is evenly distributed over an interval o
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A continuous probability distribution having a rectangular shape, where the probability is evenly distributed over an interval of numbers is a(n) __uniform__________ distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there is a  continuous probability distribution having a rectangular shape, where the probability is evenly distributed over an interval of numbers

Since the pdf is rectangular in shape and total probability is one we can say all values in the interval would be equally likely

Say if the interval is (a,b) P(X) = p the same for all places

Since total probability is 1,

we get integral of P(X)=p(b-a) =1

Or p= \frac{1}{b-a}

this is nothing but a uniform distribution continuous defined in the interval

A continuous probability distribution having a rectangular shape, where the probability is evenly distributed over an interval of numbers is a(n) __uniform__________ distribution
