Answer:

The cost of the machine was $45,598.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Janice earns 4% commission for the medical equipment that she sells.

She earned $1,823.94 in commission on the digital x-ray machine that she sold.

Let the value of x-ray machine be x

4% of x = $1,823.94

\frac{4}{100} of x = 1,823.94

x = 1,823.94 ÷ 0.04 = $45,598.50

The cost of the machine was $45,598.50.

A city of 6,688 has an area of 16 square miles. What is the population density of the city?
Ahat [919]
To find population density, it is population / area.

The population is 6688, divided by the area of 16.

6688/16 = 418

So the population density is 418 people per sq mile.

A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola y = 5 − x 2 . What are the dimensions
kherson [118]

Answer:

A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola

y=5−x^2. What are the dimensions of such a rectangle with the greatest possible area?

Width =

Height =

Width =√10 and Height = \frac{10}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle which lie on the given parabola y = 5 - x² ........ (1)

are (h,k) and (-h,k).

Hence, the area of the rectangle will be (h + h) × k

Therefore, A = h²k ..... (2).

Now, from equation (1) we can write k = 5 - h² ....... (3)

So, from equation (2), we can write

A =h^{2} [5-h^{2} ]=5h^{2} -h^{4}

For, A to be greatest ,

\frac{dA}{dh} =0 = 10h-4h^{3}

⇒ h[10-4h^{2} ]=0

⇒ h^{2} =\frac{10}{4} {Since, h≠ 0}

⇒ h = ±\frac{\sqrt{10} }{2}

Therefore, from equation (3), k = 5 - h²

⇒ k=5-\frac{10}{4} =\frac{10}{4}

Hence,

Width = 2h =√10 and

Height = k =\frac{10}{4}.

A researcher testing seed varieties for tulips got a confidence interval of (14.2%,17.4%) for the percent of seeds that can grow
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The sample proportion is 0.158.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a confidence interval of proportions, we have the lower bound and the upper bound of the interval. The sample proportion is the halfway points between these bounds, that is, the sum of these bounds divided by 2.

In this problem, we have that:

Lower bound: 0.142

Upper bound: 0.174

Sample proportion: (0.142+0.174)/2 = 0.158

The sample proportion is 0.158.
