Azila is a salesgirl for a cosmetic product. Her salary is RM375 per week with 5% commission of her weekly sales. What is the le

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

RM3,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Salary=RM375 per week

5% commission per week

If she target a minimum of RM 550.

Let x=minimum Sales

RM550=RM375 + 5% of x

RM550=RM375 + 0.05x

RM550 - RM375=0.05x

RM175=0.05x

Divide both sides by 0.05

RM175/0.05=0.05x/0.05

RM3,500=x

For Azila to earn a minimum of RM550 in a week, her salary will be RM375 plus 5% commission on the sales of RM3,500 value of product.

Check:

5% of RM3,500

=0.05*3,500

=RM175

Plus

Salary of RM375

RM175 + RM375=RM550

What is the value of n in the equation 0.2(n - 6) = 2.8? (1) 8 (3) 20 (2) 2 (4) 44

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

So,

0.2(n - 6) = 2.8

Distribute.
0.2n - 1.2 = 2.8

Add 1.2 to both sides.
0.2n = 4

Divide both sides by .2.
n = 20

Check.
0.2(20 - 6) = 2.8

Simplify inside parentheses.
0.2(14) = 2.8

Multiply.
2.8 = 2.8 This checks.

S = {2.8}

What is the store paid $75 for a clarinet and sold it for $100 did the store mark up the price by 30% what the answer

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Mark up = 33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

buying price = $75

selling price = $100

First we will find the difference between two prices:

Difference = 100 - 75 = $25

We will find now that 25 is what percent of 75 so:

=25/75* 100

= 0.333333 * 100

= 33.33%

So the store marked the price by 33.33% instead of 30%

i hope it will help you!

The following are the number of birth per year per 1,000 population for 20 countries: 34, 24, 10, 15, 22, 15, 17, 22, 10, 17, 25

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A. D = None of the above

B. B = 18

C. A = 15

D. D = None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the population from the highest to the lowest.

10, 10, 12, 15, 15, 15, 15, 17, 17, 18, 18, 20, 22, 22, 24, 25, 31, 32, 34, 37

Mean = (summation of all the 20 samples)/ no of samples

Mean per year per 1000 population = 409/20

= 20.45

Median = the middle value (for odd numbered samples)

= the sum of the middle value ÷ 2 ( for even numbered samples)

Median birth per year per 1000 population = (18 + 18)/2

= 18

Mode = the sample that has the number of frequency

Mode per year per 1000 population = 15 (frequency = 4)

Range = highest value sample - lowest value sample

Range per year per 1000 population = 37 - 10

= 27
