Answer:

  17.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Serena's bonus on $1200 sales is 15%×$1200 = $180. In order to make $500 for the week, then she must have at least ...

  $500 - 180 = $320

in hourly pay.

At $18 per hour, that requires she work $320/($18/h) = 17.77_7 h.

Serena must work a minimum of about 17.8 hours to make $500.

_____

<em>Comment on the answer</em>

The exact result of the computation is 17 7/9 hours. Many payroll departments record hours to the nearest 1/4 or 1/10 hour. For Serena's pay to be at least $500, she must work 17.8 (rounded to tenths) or 18.0 (rounded to quarters) hours.

The "sample" with "mean absolute deviation" indicate about a sample mean absolute deviation is being used as an estimator of the mean absolute deviation of a​ population

  • Mean of the sample MAD=3.3
  • Population MAD =6.4

<h3>What does this indicate about a sample mean absolute deviation used as an estimator of the mean absolute deviation of a​ population?</h3>

Generally,  The MAD measures the average dispersion around the mean of a given data collection.

1/n \sum_i-1^{n} |x_i -m(X)|

In conclusion, for the corresponding same to mean

the sample  mean absolute deviation

7,7  ↔         0

7,21  ↔         7

7,22         ↔    7.5

21,7        ↔          7

21,21 ↔     0

21,22 ↔    0.5

22,7   ↔     7.5

Therefore

  • Mean of the sample MAD=3.3
  • Population MAD =6.4

Solve the system algebraically. 3x - 2y - 1 = 0 y = 5x + 4 What is the solution? {(-9/7,-17/7)} {(9/7,17/7)} {(9/7,-17/7)}
lutik1710 [3]
3x - 2y - 1 = 0
y = 5x + 4

3x - 2(5x + 4) - 1 = 0
3x - 10x - 8 - 1 = 0
-7x - 9 = 0
-7x = 9
x = -9/7

y = 5x + 4
y = 5(-9/7) + 4
y = -45/7 + 4
y = -45/7 + 28/7
y = - 17/7

solution is (-9/7, -17/7)
