Answer: 1,045 passengers

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves multiple steps. Let's first try to figure the number of children on the cruise.

The ratio of girls to the total number of children was 2:5. There are 198 boys.

This information tells me that for every 5 children, there's 2 girls and 3 boys.

Based off of this information, we can divide the total number of boys by 3 in order to find the number of children.

198÷3=66

Let's multiply 66 by 5 since that's the number of groupings based off the ratio.

66×5=330

Let's check the number of children. Since the ratio of girls to total children is 2:5 and we already confirmed there's 198 boys, there should be 132 girls. We can turn this ratio into a fraction where 2/5 of the children are girls. we can confirm this by multiply 330 by 2/5 (0.4) and getting 132.

There are 330 children on the cruise.

The ratio of the number of adults to the number of children was 13:6.

For every 6 children, there were 13 adults. Let's divide the number of children by 6 in order to find the number of groupings.

330÷6=55

Let's now multiply the groupings by 13 to find the number of adults.

55×13=715

So there should be 715 adults and 330 children on the cruise.

715+330=1,045

lamont cotton is 4% comission on the first 10,000 of monthly sales mens 10% on all sales over 10,000. last month his 38,00. what

Pani-rosa [81]

Given:

Lamont cotton is 4% commission on the first 10,000 of monthly sales and 10% on all sales over 10,000.

Consider his last month sales is 38,000.

To find:

The total commission.

Solution:

4% commission on the first 10,000 of monthly sales is

$10,000\dfrac{4}{100}=400$

Sales over 10,000 is

$38,000-10,000=28,000$

10% commission on all sales over 10,000 is

$28,000\times \dfrac{10}{100}=2,800$

Now, the total commission is

$400+2,800=3,200$

Therefore, the total commission is 3,200.

What is the sum of the first 37 terms of the arithmetic sequence?

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The sum of the first 37 terms of the arithmetic sequence is 2997.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence concepts:

The general rule of an arithmetic sequence is the following:

$a_{n+1} = a_{n} + d$

In which d is the common diference between each term.

We can expand the general equation to find the nth term from the first, by the following equation:

$a_{n} = a_{1} + (n-1)*d$

The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$S_{n} = \frac{n(a_{1} + a_{n})}{2}$

In this question:

$a_{1} = -27, d = -21 - (-27) = -15 - (-21) = ... = 6$

We want the sum of the first 37 terms, so we have to find $a_{37}$

$a_{n} = a_{1} + (n-1)*d$

$a_{37} = a_{1} + (36)*d$

$a_{37} = -27 + 36*6$

$a_{37} = 189$

Then

$S_{37} = \frac{37(-27 + 189)}{2} = 2997$

The sum of the first 37 terms of the arithmetic sequence is 2997.
