Answer:

$1530 = 45% commission

Step-by-step explanation:

First, jot down the important facts:

• first $1000 = 10% comm.

• next $2000 = 15% comm.

• total more than $3000 = 20% comm.

• total comm. = $3400

Then, go in order with your jotted facts to withdraw the total commission amount. Here's what I mean:

 $3400   ← total is more than $3000 = +20% comm.

<u>- $1000</u>   ← the first $1000 = +10% comm.

 $2400

<u>- $2000</u>   ← the next $2000 = +15% comm.

   $400

Then, add together the commission percentages:

20% + 10% + 15% = 45% comm.

Convert the percentage to a decimal:

45% × 100 = 0.45

And multiply it with the total amount to find the commission amount:

$3400 × 0.45 = $1530

Find the total mass of the triangular region shown below. All lengths are in cm, and the density of the region is sigma(x) = 1 +
anastassius [24]

Answer:

3 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to take the mass of a bunch of little strips below the triangle "roof." To do this, we must figure out what formula for the mass we'll use, in this case, we'll use:

Mass of strip = denisty * area = (1+x)*y*deltax grams

now, because the "roof" of the triangle contains two different integrals (it completely changes direction), we will use TWO integrals!

**pretend ∈ is the sum symbol

Mass of left part = lim x->0 ∈ (1+x)*y*deltax = inegral -1 to 0 of (1+x)*3*(x+1) = 3 * integral -1 to 0 of (x^2 + 2x + 1) = 3 *  1/3 = 1

Mass of left part = lim x->0 ∈ (1+x)*y*deltax = inegral 0 to 1 of (1+x)*3*(-x+1) = 3 * integral 0 to 1 of (-x^2 + 1) = 3 * 2/3 = 2

Total mass = mass left + mass right = 1 + 2 = 3 grams

Coach Chapman has 54 students signed up for a jump rope competition. He only has 18 jump ropes. What is the ratio of jump ropes
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

1:3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking what the ratio of jump ropes to students is.

The order of the question matters.

Since they ask for the jump ropes first and then the students, we

get a ratio of 18:54.

Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

The GCF is 18.

Divide 18:54 by 18.

18/18=1

54/18=3

The answer is 1:3.

A Sum of $14 is made of 92 coins consisting of dimes and quarters. How Many are there of each kind of coin
steposvetlana [31]
So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?

So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20

So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.

So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.

So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.

4.80/0.15 = 32

So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.
