The average annual salary of the employees of a company in the year 2005 was $70,000. It increased by the same factor each year

and in 2006, the average annual salary was $82,000. Let f(x) represent the average annual salary, in thousand dollars, after x years since 2005. Which of the following best represents the relationship between x and f(x)?
f(x) = 70(1.17)x

f(x) = 82(1.17)x

f(x) = 70(2.2)x

f(x) = 82(2.2)x

Answer:

The best option that represents the relationship between the years x  and the annual salary in thousand of dollar f (x) is f(x)=70*1.17^x (first option)

Step-by-step explanation:

An increment function can be expressed as the initial value A  times, the increment rate r raised to the amount of time x:

f(x)=A.r^x

In this particular case, the initial value is the initial salary in 2005 and the amount of time will be the years.  

The annual increment rate of the salary can be found by the rate of the salary in 2006 and the salary of 2005:

r=82000/70000=1.17

Replacing the initial salary in thousands of dollars:

f(x)=70.1.17^x

82/70=1.17 approx. This is the annual growth factor. After x years the growth is 1.17ˣ. The growth has to be applied to the salary in the start year 2005, when it was $70,000. So f(x)=70(1.17)ˣ, answer 1.

lara [203]

The most likely measurement for a two-story building would be 20 feet. 6 inches, 25 inches, and 6 feet all are way too short for a two-story building.

In a sample of 1000 cases, the mean of a certain test is 14 and the standard deviation is 2.5. Assume the distribution to be nor
Maslowich

Answer:

The top 20% of the students will score at least 2.1 points above the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

The mean of a certain test is 14 and the standard deviation is 2.5.

This means that \mu = 14, \sigma = 2.5

The top 20% of the students will score how many points above the mean

Their score is the 100 - 20 = 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.

Their score is:

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

0.84 = \frac{X - 14}{2.5}

X - 14 = 0.84*2.5

X = 16.1

16.1 - 14 = 2.1

The top 20% of the students will score at least 2.1 points above the mean.

Of the smoothie sold yesterday at Isaac's smoothie shop 1/4 we're banana and another 2/3 were strawberry What fraction of smooth
lesya [120]

Answer:

11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of smoothie that is Banana = 1/4

Fraction of smoothie that is strawberry = 2/3

The fraction of smoothies that were either banana or strawberry

= 1/4 + 2/3

Least Common Denominator= 12

= (3 × 1 + 2 × 4)/12

= 3 + 8/12

= 11/12

The fraction of smoothies were either banana or strawberry is 11/12
