Answer:

<em>$570 a week</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentage Calculations </u>

One tricky fact about percentages is that they are usually performed over the last computed quantity. It makes them non-additive. For example, a raise of 10% followed by a 10% some time later, is NOT a 20% of total raise

The question states Ashely is making $500 a week at her job and that she receives a 20% pay raise. After that raise she will make

\$500*(1+20/100)=\$500(1.2)=\$600 \text{ a week}

A year later she takes a 5% pay cut. We must be careful to take that percentage from the last earnings. She now makes

\$600(1-5/100)=\$600(0.95)=\$570\ a\ week

How many pennies could you have if:
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The number of pennies owned is 7 pennies

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of pennies left over when we break the pennies into groups of 2s = 1 penny

The number of pennies left over when we break the pennies into groups of 3s = 1 penny

Let the number of pennies owned = c

What we are given are as follows;

2 × a = c - 1

3 × b = c - 1

2 × a = 3 × b

a/b = 3/2

Therefore, if we multiply 2 by 3, and 3 by 2 we get 6

2 × 3 = 6, similarly 3 × 2 = 6

If we put 6 = c - 1, we get;

c = 6 + 1 = 7

c = 7

The number of pennies owned = 7 pennies.

Can someone answer this question please answer it correctly if it’s corect I will mark you brainliest
Daniel [21]

Answer:

getting the queen is smaller

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 queens in a 52 card deck

P(queen) = 4/52 = 1/13

There are 12 pairs socks, 3 of which are grey

P(grey socks) = 3/12 = 1/4

1/13 <1/4

So getting a queen is smaller

The possible outcomes

8 +0  9+0   10+0  <em> 11+0</em>

8+1    9+1 <em>    10+1    11+1</em>

8+2<em>   9+2     10+2    11+2</em>

<em>8+3   9+3     10+3    11+3</em>

There are 16 outcomes and 10 of them are after 11, (assuming we add the time to the bedtime)

P (bedtime later than 10) = 10/16 = 5/8
