Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of the kitchen clock sold =a

Let the number of the cuckoo clock sold =b

Let the number of the two-foot high grandfather clocks sold =c

The new saleswoman sold at least two of each of the three models.

Therefore:

a\geq 2\\b \geq 2\\c \geq 2

In all, she collected $300 from selling these models alone

17a+31b+61c=300

17(2)+31(2)+61(2)=218

300-218=82

Next, we try to express the remainder (82) in terms of 17, 31 and 61

82=17(3)+31

Therefore, she sold:

  • 5 kitchen clocks
  • 3 cuckoo clocks
  • 2 two-foot high grandfather clocks

She sold 5 $17 clocks.

CHECK:

17(5)+31(3)+2(61)=$300

Answer: 82%

Step-by-step explanation:

- - - - - - - - college - - not college - - - - total

Travel - - - - 43 - - - - - - - 10 - - - - - - - - 53

Not travel - 24 - - - - - - - 5 - - - - - - - - - 29

Total - - - - 67 - - - - - - - 15 - - - - - - - - - 82

Marginal relative frequency of students who plan to attend college:

(Number of students who plan to attend the college / Total number of the students)

Number of students who plan to attend college = 67

total number of students = 82

Marginal relative frequency = 67/82

= 0.8170731

= (0.8170731) * 100%

= 81.7% = 82%
