Answer:

37%

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ramona received an overall pay of $52,561 last year, $23,960 of which was base pay, we can first subtract these two numbers to find the amount she made from her sales commission:

$52,561 - $23,960 = $28,601

In order to find her percent commission, we can set up a proportion:

\frac{p}{100}=\frac{28,601}{77,300}, where 'p' is her rate of commission

Cross-multiply and divide:  100(28601) = 77300x or 2,860,100 = 77,300x

Or x = 37%

I have an old alarm clock, on which the hands move at only 95% of the speed that they should do.
erica [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 9:45 pm

  b) 10:57 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 15 hours between 7:30 am and 10:30 pm, the clock hands will have moved 15×0.95 = 14.25 hours = 14 hours and 15 minutes.

At 10:30 pm, the clock indicates 9:45 pm.

__

b) In the 9 hours between 10:30 pm and 7:30 am, the clock will have moved 9×0.95 = 8.55 hours, or 8 hours 33 minutes. That is, the clock needs to be set 27 minutes ahead of the actual time.

The clock need to be set to 10:57 pm.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

At 95% speed, the clock loses 5%×60 minutes = 3 minutes each hour. In the 15 hours from morning to night, the clock will be 45 minutes slow. It will indicate 9:45 at 10:30 pm.

In the 9 hours from night to morning, the clock will lose 27 minutes so needs to be set 27 minutes fast. It should be set to 10:57 pm at 10:30 pm.

A scientist counts 35 bacteria present in a culture and finds that the number of bacteria triples each hour. The function y = 35
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

<h2>After 5 hours</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If a scientist counts 35 bacteria present in a culture and finds that the number of bacteria triples each hour and the function y = 35 ∙ 3x models the number of bacteria after x hours, in order to estimate when there will be about 550 bacteria in the culture we will substitute y = 550 into the modeled equation and calculate the value of x as shown;

If y = 35*3x

when y = 550

550 = 35*3x

Dividing both sides by 35;

550/35 = 35*3x/35

3x = 550/35

x = 550/3*35

x = 550/105

x = 5.24

This means that there will be 550 bacteria in the culture after approximately 5 hours
