Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

You can quickly figure this by recognizing that the difference in commission must be the same as the base salary:

2.5%(car price) = $500

car price = $500/0.025 = $20,000

__

If you prefer, you can get there with equations.

At Job 1, the pay is ...

y = 10%×(car price)

At Job 2, the pay is ...

y = 7.5%×(car price)

Setting the equal (the two opportunities pay the same), we have ...

0.10(car price) = 500 +0.075(car price)

0.025(car price) = 500 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.075(car price)

car price = 500/0.025 = 20,000 . . . . divide by 0.025

Jim would have to sell a $20,000 car each week for the jobs to pay the same.

The time to complete a standardized exam is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minus.

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time to complete a standardized exam is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.

P(completing exam before 1 hour)

= P(less than an hour) = P(X<60)

=P(Z< $\frac{60-70}{10} =-1$ )

=0.5-0.34=0.16

i.e. 16% of students completed the standardized exam.

Which compound inequalities have the solution set represented by the given graph? Check all that apply

Contact [7]

We check with each options

'Or' represents the intersection of two graphs

'And' represents two separate graphs'

We have two separate shaded part in the given graph

So we ignore the options that has 'and' in between

LEts check first and second option

$\frac{x}{2}=13$

Simplify the first part and second part

multiply both sides by 2 .

x < 2 or 4x - 2 > = 26

solve 4x-2 > = 26

add 2 on both sides and then divide both sides by 4

4x >= 28

x >= 7

So solution is x<2 or x>=7 . that is the graph on number line

Lets check with second option

3x-3<3 or 2x+8>=22

add 3 on both sides

3x < 6

divide both sides by 3

so x< 2

2x+8>=22

subtract 8 on both sides

2x >= 30

divide both sides by 2

x >= 15

x<2 or x>=15 that does not satisfies the graph

So option A is correct
