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%.

Answer:

3ab

-------------------

(b+a)

Step-by-step explanation:

3/a - 3/b

-------------------

1/a^2 - 1/b^2

Multiply the top and bottom by a^2 b^2/ a^2/b^2 to clear the fractions

(3/a - 3/b) a^2 b^2

-------------------

(1/a^2 - 1/b^2) a^2b^2

3ab^2 - 3 a^2 b

-------------------

b^2 - a^2

Factor out 3ab on the top

3ab( b-a)

-------------------

b^2 - a^2

The bottom is the difference of squares

3ab( b-a)

-------------------

(b-a) (b+a)

Cancel like terms from the top and bottom

3ab

-------------------

(b+a)

A random sample of 100 observations from a quantitative population produced a sample mean of 22.8 and a sample standard deviatio

natima [27]

Answer:

We conclude that the population mean is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 24

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 22.8

Sample size, n = 100

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.3

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 24\\H_A: \mu \neq 24$

We use Two-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{22.8 - 24}{\frac{8.3}{\sqrt{100}} } = -1.44$

We calculate the p-value with the help of standard z table.

P-value = 0.1498

Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, we accept the null hypothesis. The population mean is 24.

Now, $z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = \pm 1.96$

Since, the z-statistic lies in the acceptance region which is from -1.96 to +1.96, we accept the null hypothesis and conclude that the population mean is 24.
