The mean purchase total is $93.80 and the median purchase total is $75.80. The store manager investigates and learns that the cu

stomer that made a $500 purchase had not purchased groceries, but rather a $500 gift card. Because this customer’s purchase was not typical, the manager decides to exclude this total from the data set. How will removing the $500 purchase from the data set affect the value of the mean and the median?
(A) The mean will decrease more than the median.
(B) The mean will decrease less than the median.
(C) The mean will stay the same, but the median will decrease.
(D) The mean will increase more than the median.
(E) The mean will increase, but not as much as the median.

Answer:

(A) The mean will decrease more than the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

$500 is much more than the mean of $93.80, so removing it from the data set will decrease the mean significantly.  The median of $75.80 will move to the next smaller number, so the change will be small or even none.

Lisa an experienced shipping​ clerk, can fill a certain order in 7 hours. ​bill, a new​ clerk, needs
OLga [1]

Answer:

3.73 hours

Explanation:

In 1 hour, Lisa does 1/7th of the order while Bill does 1/8th of the order in an hour. To find out how long it will take them to fill the order, we have to:

Step 1:

Add the rate of both Lisa and Bill together

1/7 + 1/8

Step 2:

Since both denominators of the fractions are different, you have to find the least common multiple of 7 and 8

7·8= 56    8·7= 56

which is 56.

Step 3:

Then, you have to multiply the numerator of 1/7 with 8 and the numerator of 1/8 with 7.

1·8= 8    1·7= 7

The fractions would now have equal denominators:

Lisa: 8/56    Bill: 7/56

Step 4:

Now, you can add them together

8/56 + 7/56

which equals to 15/56. Both Lisa and Bill together completes 15/56th of the order in 1 hour.

Step 5:

15/56 is not the final answer as it is the RATE of them working together. To find how long it will take them total to complete the order, you must divide 56 with 15.

56/15

which is 3.73 hours in decimal form (rounded).

A car salesman makes 2% commission on all cars, x, that he sells. How much commission does he make?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: 0.02x

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the cars the salesman makes is x in this instance.

The salesman makes a 2% commission on every sale so this can be represented by multiplying 2% by the value of the cars which in this case is x.

= 2% * x

= 0.02 * x

= 0.02x

If for instance he sells $40,000 worth of cars, his commission would be:

= 0.02 * x

= 0.02 * 40,000

= $800
