Answer: Mary makes $1160, Steven makes $142.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Facts

MARY

8% commision on everything she sells

She sells a car for $14,500

The first question about Mary asks how much commision she makes. To find that, lets find 8% of 14,500

8% of 14,500= 0.08x14,500= 1160

Therefore, Mary makes $1,160 in commision.

STEVEN

Facts

He makes 15% in commision for the supplies he sells

He sells $950 in supplies

Money made =?

15% of 950=0.15x950=$142.50

The air force reports that the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that X - the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.7 inches.

Height of male pilot = 74.2 inches

We have to find the percentile

X = 74.2

Corresponding Z score = 74.2-72.6 = 1.6

P(X<174.2) = P(Z<1.6) = 0.5-0.4452=0.0548=5.48%

i.e. only 5% are below him in height.

Thus the malepilot is in 5th percentile.

A national study reported that 75% of high school graduates pursue a college education immediately after graduation. A private h

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The % students going to higher education is 79.60 % which is higher than the reported value.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to national study report the students going to college for higher education = 75 %

Given that

156 of their 196 graduates last year went on to college.

% students going to higher education is

$(\frac{156}{196}) 100 = 79.60$

Thus the % students going to higher education is 79.60 % which is higher than the reported value.

A circular pool measures 10 feet across. one cubic yard of concrete is to be used to create a circular border of uniform width a

mina [271]

we know that

1 ft is equal to 12 in

1 cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet

Step 1

Find the area of the circular border of uniform width around the pool

Let

x---------> the uniform width around the pool

we know that

The diameter of the circular pool measures 10 feet

so

the radius r=5 ft

the area of the circular border is equal to

$A=\pi *(5+x)^{2}- \pi *5^{2} \\A= \pi *[(x+5) ^{2}-5^{2} ] \\ A= \pi * [x^{2} +10x]$

step 2

volume of the concrete to be used to create a circular border is equal to

V=1 yd^{3}-------> convert to ft^{3}

V=27 ft^{3} -------> equation 1

the depth is equal to 4 in-------> convert to ft

depth=4/12=(1/3) ft

volume of the concrete to be used to create a circular border is also equal to

V=Area of the circular border*Depth

$V= \pi * [x^{2} +10x]*(1/3)$ -------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2

$27=\pi * [x^{2} +10x]*(1/3) \\ x^{2} +10x- \frac{81}{\pi }=0$

using a graph tool------> to resolve the second order equation

see the attached figure

the solution is the point

x=2.126 ft

therefore

the answer is

The uniform width around the circular pool border is 2.126 ft
