Answer:

<em>$225</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Principal = $6,000

Interest rate = 5%

Time = 1 year

Taxes paid = 25% on the interest earned

To find:

Money earned after paying taxes ?

Solution:

First of all, let us calculate the total interest earned:

Formula for Simple Interest is given as:

SI =\dfrac{PRT}{100}

Where P is the principal

R is the rate of interest

T is the time taken

Putting the given values:

SI =\dfrac{6000 \times 5\times 1}{100} =\$300

Now, it is given that 25% of the interest earned is given as taxes.

Taxes paid = 25% of $300

\Rightarrow \dfrac{25}{100} \times 300 =\$75

Therefore, the money earned = Interest earned - Taxes paid

The money earned = $300 - $75 = <em>$225</em>

When the outliers are removed how does the mean change? Dot plot with one on 18, 2 on 38, one on 40, 3 on 44, one on 46, one on
Vitek1552 [10]
18,38,38,40,44,44,44,46,48....
the mean with the outlier (18) included is : 360/9 = 40

38,38,40,44,44,44,46,48
the mean with the outlier (18) excluded is : (360 - 18) / 9 = 342/9 = 38

so when the outlier is removed, the mean is 2 points less

A company that manufactures hair ribbons knows that the number of ribbons it can sell each week, x, is related to the price p pe
mel-nik [20]

Given:

The number of ribbons it can sell each week, x, is related to the price p per ribbon by the equation:

x=1000-100p

To find:

The selling price if the company wants the weekly revenue to be $1,600.

Solution:

We know that the revenue is the product of quantity and price.

R=xp

R=(1000-100p)p

R=1000p-100p^2

We need to find the value of p when the value of R is $1600.

1600=1000p-100p^2

1600-1000p+100p^2=0

100(16-10p+p^2)=0

Divide both sides by 100.

p^2-10p+16=0

Splitting the middle term, we get

p^2-8p-2p+16=0

p(p-8)-2(p-8)=0

(p-8)(p-2)=0

Using zero product property, we get

p-8=0 or p-2=0

p=8 or p=2

Therefore, the smaller value of p is $2 and the larger value of p is $8.
