So Joan receives 25% commission on the profits of the cars she sells. She got $8,870 on the profit last month. To find the commission, let’s multiply the amount of profit by the percentage. 8,870 * 0.25 is 2,217.5. There. Joan earned $2,217.50 in commission last month.

3. Three years ago, Jane was three times as old as Alice. In two years time, the sum of their ages will be 62. Determine their p

Alice - x 
Jane - 3x 

Fast forward 2 years... 1 year ago: 

Sum of their ages = 62


Equation to solve: x + 3x = 62 
                                4x = 62 
                               -----  -----
                                 4      4
 
                                 x = 15.5 

From this, we can deterime that Alice is 15 1/2 years old. 

Then, plug in 15.5 for x in 3x to find Jane's age. 

15.5 × 3 = 46.5

From this, we can determine that Jane is 46 1/2 years old. 


I hope this helps you to understand this problem better.

Mrs. Gomes found that 40% of students at her high school take chemistry. She randomly surveys 12 students. What is the probabili
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "0.438".

Step-by-step explanation:

Just because Mrs. Gomes finds around 40% of students in herself high school are studying chemistry.  

Although each student becomes independent of one another, we may conclude:  

"x" number of the students taking chemistry seems to be binomial to p = constant probability = 0.40

Given:

Number of surveys

= 12

Exactly 4 students have taken chemistry:

=P(X\leq4)

=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)+P(x=4)

=\Sigma_{0}^{4} C_{r}(0.4)^r(0.6)^{12-r}

On substituting the above equation, we get the probability of approximately "0.438".

So that the above would be the appropriate answer.

Remove the largest possible common factor. Check your answer by multiplication. 9x^(4)+15x^(3)-12x
IRINA_888 [86]
Check 9,15,12 we can see the largest possible common factor is 3
Check x^4 , x^3 , x we can see the largest possible common factor is x
Therefore : the answer is
3x( 3x^3+ 5x^2 - 4)
