Find last year's salary if after a 4% raise , this year's salary is $44,200.

1 answer:

5 0

You can try this way:
x - last year´s salary, raise: 4% = 0.04 ( 100%+4% = 104% = 1.04 )
x · 1.04 = 44,200
x = 44,200 : 1.04
x = 42,500
Last year´s salary was $42,500.

The mean work week for engineers in start-up companies is claimed to be about 64 hours with a standard deviation of 8 hours. Kar

blondinia [14]

Answer:

1.) mean

2.) H0 : μ = 64

3.) 0.0028

4) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis ; H0 : μ = 64

Alternative hypothesis ; H1 : μ < 64

From the data Given :

70; 45; 55; 60; 65; 55; 55; 60; 50; 55

Using calculator :

Xbar = 57

Sample size, n = 10

Standard deviation, s = 7.14

Test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)

(57 - 64) ÷ 8 / sqrt(10)

Test statistic = - 2.77

Pvalue = (Z < - 2.77) = 0.0028 ( Z probability calculator)

α = 10% = 0.1

Reject H0 ; if P < α

Here,

P < α ; Hence, we reject the null

Which of the following is the inverse of f(x)=3-x/5?

pshichka [43]

Answer:

-5x+3 OR 5x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the inverse by replacing the x with the y, and solving for y. Doing this actually gives you -5x+3 but in this case, the closest answer would be 5x-3.

UPDATE: -5x + 3 can be written as 3 - 5x lol

The larger of two numbers is five more than twice the smaller number. The sum of the two numbers is 38. Find the numbers.

White raven [17]

Answer:

11 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to solve these is to work backwards.

X= larger and Y= smaller

if X is 5 more than 2Y than subtract 5 from the total

38 - 5 = 33

divide by 3

33/3 = 11

11 = Y and double that is 22 so add the five back into X and you get 16
