an art dealer makes a 17.5% commission on every painting sold. If a painting sold for $1500, what was the commission

1 answer:

4 0

A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.

To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175

1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.

The commission is $262.50.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos that is

P(x=0) = $e^{-0.08}$ = 0.923

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Poisson distribution</u>:-

Explanation of the Poisson distribution :-

The Poisson distribution can be derived as a limiting case of the binomial

distribution under the conditions that

i) p is very small

ii) n is very large

ii) λ = np (say finite

The probability of 'r' successes = $\frac{e^{-\alpha }\alpha^r }{r!}$

Given the average number of typos ∝ = 0.08 per page.

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos that is = $p(x=0) = \frac{e^{-0.08 }\(-0.08)^0 }{0!}$

After calculation P(x=0) = $e^{-0.08}$ = 0.923

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos =0.923
