The commission rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of sold clothes = $790

Commission = $39.50

Commission rate = $\frac{commission\ amount}{Cost\ of\ sold\ clothes}*100\\$

$Commission\ rate=\frac{39.50}{790}*100\\Commission\ rate=\frac{3950}{790}\\Commission\ rate=5\%$

The commission rate is 5%.

What is -1.1 repeating as a fraction

Thepotemich [5.8K]

$Hey \\ There!$

$\frac{-1.1}{1} ( \frac{10}{10} )\\ \\ -1.1(10) = -11 \\ \\ 1(10)= 10 \\ \\ \\ Fraction: \frac{-11}{10}$ this is also $equal$ to: $-1\frac{1}{10}$

Your answer would probably be: $\frac{-11}{10} = -1\frac{1}{10}$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

A country's population in 1994 was 182 million. In 2002 it was 186 million. Estimate the population in 2004 using the exponentia

iogann1982 [59]

$\bf =ae^{kt}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
1994\impliedby \textit{year 0, starting point}\\
t=0\qquad P=182
\end{cases}\implies 182=ae^{k0}
\\\\\\
182=a\cdot e^0\implies 182=a\cdot 1\implies 182=a
\\\\\\
thus\qquad P=182e^{kt}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf P=182e^{kt}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
2002\impliedby \textit{8 years later}\\
t=8\qquad P=186
\end{cases}\implies 186=182e^{k8}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{186}{182}=e^{8k}\implies ln\left( \frac{93}{91} \right)=ln(e^{8k})\implies ln\left( \frac{93}{91} \right)=8k
\\\\\\
\cfrac{ln\left( \frac{93}{91} \right)}{8}=k\implies 0.0027\approx k\implies \boxed{P=182e^{0.0027t}}$

what's the population in 2004? well, from 1994 to 2004 is 10 years later, so t = 10

plug that in, to get P for 2004

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The fraction of red guppies = 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Garys fish are guppies = 3/5

1/6 of them are red.

Number of red guppies = ?

To find the fraction of red guppies, we will multiply both the fractions.

Number of red guppies = 3/5 * 1/6

Number of red guppies = 3/30

Number of red guppies = 1/10

Thus the fraction of red guppies = 1/10 ....
