His hourly rate is $13.75.

Let x be the hourly rate.  Since he works 20 hours that week, the hourly wages are given by 20x.  We add to that his commission, which is 16% of the $1500 in sales, or 0.16(1500).  This totals to 515:

20x + 0.16(1500) = 515
20x + 240 = 515

Subtract 240 from both sides:
20x + 240 - 240 = 515 - 240
20x = 275

Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 275/20
x = 13.75.

The mean of birth weights for individual babies in the population is 3,500 grams. What is the mean birth weight for the sampling
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The mean birth weight for the sampling distribution is

3,500 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean is the average of the sample values collected divided by the number of the samples, while the population mean is the average or mean of all the values in the population.  If the sample is random and the sample size is large enough, then the sample mean would be a good estimator of the population mean.  This implies that with a randomly distributed and unbiased sample size, the sample mean and population mean will be equal, according to the central limit theorem. Therefore, the mean of the sample means will always approximate the population mean.

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the parallel,lines

Since both the angles are corresponding angles, hence they are equal,so we get as,

7x+40 = 3x+112

===> 7x - 3x = 112-40

===> 4x = 72

===> x = 72/4 => 18

hence x = 18°

now angle A = 7(18)+40

A = 166°

hence, A = 166°
