s=1/23

given equation in term of s is 12+3/2s-1/2-3/4s=5/4s

to solve this first we need to take LCM on left hand side and right hand side we can rewrite given equation as 12/1+3/2s-1/2-3/4s=5/4s now taking LCM of {1,2s,2,4s,4s} is 4s then the equation becomes 48s/4s+6/4s-2s/4s-3/4s=5/4s

(48s+6-2s-3) /4s=5/4s now cancel out denominator of both side we get 48s+6-2s-3=5 this implies 46s+3=5

46s=2

s=1/23

Hence the value of s is 1/23

Answer:

11 13/15

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 2/3+b = 8 1/5

Add 3 2/3 to each side

-3 2/3 + 3 2/3+b = 8 1/5+ 3 2/3

b = 8 1/5 + 3 2/3

We need to get a common denominator of 15

8 1/5 = 8 3/15

3 2/3 = 3 10/15

He is paid a commission of 9 percent of his first $6,000 in sales during the month and 14 percent on all sales over $6,000. What

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$1,956.80

Step-by-step explanation:

For amounts over $6000, the commission can be computed as ...

0.14s -300 . . . . . . for sales (s) ≥ 6000

So, for $16,120 in sales, the commission is ...

0.14×$16,120 -300 = $2,256.80 -300 = $1,956.80

The commission schedule suggests that for larger amounts, you divide the problem into two parts: calculate the commission on $6000, and separately calculate the commission on the amount over $6000.

0.14(s -6000) + 0.09(6000)

= 0.14s - 0.14·6000 +0.09·6000

= 0.14s -300 . . . . the formula used above for s ≥ 6000

Suppose ACT Composite scores are normally distributed with a mean of 20.6 and a standard deviation of 5.2. A university plans to

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The minimum score required for admission is 21.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 20.6, \sigma = 5.2$
