Answer:

a) $1520

b) S_7 = $209195

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of salaries forms an arithmetic sequence with the first term as 25325 and its 7th term as 34445:

a) The raise the person can get each year is the common difference of the progression, d.

The nth term of an arithmetic progression is given generally as:

a_n = a + (n - 1)d

where a = first term = 25325

d = common difference

Therefore, the 7th term (34445) will be:

34445 = 25325 + (7 - 1)d

34445 = 25325 + 6d

=> 6d = 34445 - 25325 = 9120

d = 9120 / 6 = $1520

Therefore, the raise the person gets each year (common difference) is $1520.

b) The total amount the person will earn after 7 years is the sum of the salaries of all 7 yeas.

The sum of an arithmetic progression up to the nth term is given as:

S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a + (n - 1)d)\\ \\

Therefore, the sum of the person's salary for the 7 years is:

S_7 = \frac{7}{2}(2 * 25325 + (7 - 1)1520)\\ \\S_7 = 3.5 (50650 + 6(1520))\\\\S_7 = 3.5 (50650 + 9120)\\\\S_7 = 3.5 * 59770\\

S_7 = $209195

That is the total amount of salary after 7 years

In a New York Times/CBS News Poll, respondents were asked if it should be legal or illegal to send a text message while driving.
AnnZ [28]

Answer: \dfrac2{201}

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of persons said it is legal to text while driving = 8

Number of persons said it is illegal to text while driving = 804

Total persons sampled = 804+8 = 812

Since probability =\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

The probability of randomly selecting someone who believes it should be legal to text while driving = \dfrac{8}{804}=\dfrac2{201}

Required probability = \dfrac2{201}

There are 325 children at a zoo. If 64% of the children are boys and the rest are girls how many children at the zoo are girls
natita [175]

kids at zoo, k = 325

percentage boys, b = 64%

percentage girls, g = 100 - b = 36%

number of girls = 325 × 36% = 117

Finding Derivatives Implicity In Exercise, find dy/dx implicity.<br> x2 - 3 ln y + y2 = 10
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

x^2-3lny+y^2=0

Differentiate w.r.t x

2x-\frac{3}{y}\frac{dy}{dx}+2y\frac{dy}{dx}=0

By using formula

\frac{dx^n}{dx}=nx^{n-1}

\frac{d(lnx)}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}

\frac{dy^n}{dx}=ny^{n-1}\frac{dy}{dx}

\frac{dy}{dx}(-\frac{3}{y}+2y)+2x=0

\frac{dy}{dx}(-\frac{3}{y}+2y)=-2x

\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2x}{-\frac{3}{y}+2y}

\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}

Hence, the derivative of function

\frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{2xy}{2y^2-3}
