For an analysis of the salaries of your​ company, you plot the salaries of all employees against the number of years they have w

orked for the company. You find that plotting the​ base-10 logarithm of salary makes the plot much straighter. A​ part-time shipping​ clerk, who has worked at the company for one year earns ​$12 comma 000. A manager earns ​$120 comma 000 after 20 years with the firm. The​ CEO, who founded the company 40 years​ ago, receives ​$1 comma 500 comma 000. What are the values you will​ plot? Will the plot of these three points be straight​ enough?

Answer:

1. That values that you must plot are:

  • (1, 4.08))
  • (20, 5.08)
  • (40, 6.18)

2. Yes, the plot of those three points is straight enough.

Explanation:

<em><u>A. What are the values you will​ plot? </u></em>

The x-ccordinate of your plot is still the number of years the exmployees have worked for the company.

The y-coordinate of your plot is the the​ base-10 logarithm of  the salary.

Therefore:

<u>1) A​ part-time shipping​ clerk</u>: 1 year, $12,000

           ⇒     (1,log_{10}12,000)=(1,4.08)

<u>2) A manager</u>: 20 years, $120,000

  ⇒     (20,log_{10}120,000)=(20,5.08)

<u>3) The​ CEO</u>: 40 years​ ago, $1,500,000

  ⇒     (40,log_{10}1,500,000)=(40,6.18)

Summarizing, the points to plot are:

  • (1, 4.08)
  • (20, 5.08)
  • (40, 6.18)

<u><em>B. Will the plot of these three points be straight​ enough?</em></u>

To find whether the plot is straight enoguh, you may either plot them, make a regression, or, since they are only three points, you can whether the change of rate of the points is constant.

  • <u>Change of rate of the first two points, r</u>:

       r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (5.08 - 4.08) / (20 - 1) =1.00/19 ≈ 0.05

  • <u>Change of rate of the second and the third points, r</u>:

       r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (6.18 - 5.08) / (20 - 1) = 0.05

Since both rate of changes are equal (or reasonably equal) the plot is  straight enough.

To build a child's skills in self-regulation, you should make reasoning statements. Which of the following is not a good reasoni
Vlada [557]
The correct option is C. You must put your sweater on because I said so.
This option is not a good reasoning statement because there is no good reason why the kid should put on a sweater - because I said so is not a good reason. The child needs a sensible and informative reason as to why they should do something, so instead of saying 'because I said so,' it may be better to say 'because you'll catch a cold,' or something to that effect.

Setler [38]

Answer:

The marginal return of production of the second worker or marginal product of the second worker is 10 cones.

Explanation:

One worker can make 15 cones of ice cream in an hour.

Two workers can make 25 cones in the same time.

While three workers can make 30 cones in an hour.

The marginal return of the production of the second worker is the contribution of the second worker in the total output.

Marginal return
