The ratio of males to females is 1.4 : 1, so the fraction of the total that is made up of males is 1.4/(1.4 + 1) = 1.4/2.4 = 7/12.


There were (7/12)*475 ≈ 277 males at the party.

There were 475 - 277 = 198 females at the party.

Raul has been offered three different jobs and must choose which one to accept. One of the factors he is considering is the pay
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Raul would work 50 weeks of the year,

40 hours each week,

5 days each week,

and he would receive a 1-hour lunch break each day.

Pay rate for Job A = $35,000 / year

  • For Job B:

Pay rate = $15 / hour

He will work 40 hours each week.

As he works 5 days a week, so in 1 day he will work 40/5 = 8 hours.

He would receive a 1-hour break each day, for which he will not be paid, so he will receive a payment for 8-1=7 hours.

So, payment for 1 day = $15 x 7 = $105

As he works 5 days a week, so payment for 1 week = $105 x 5 = $525

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $525 x 50 = $26250.

So, the pay rate by Job B = $26250 /year

  • For Job C:

Pay rate = $750 / week

As he works 50 weeks a year, so payment for 1 year = $750 x 50 = $37500.

So, the pay rate by Job C = $37500 /year

As the pay rate for Job C is the highest, so he must accept the offer from Job C.
