Answer:

Number of brownies = 30

Number of cookies = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of each brownie = $2

Cost of each cookie = $1.5

Total number of treats = 45

Total amount = $82.50

Find:

Number of cookies and brownie

Computation:

Assume;

Number of brownies = b

Number of cookies = c

So,

b + c = 45........eq1

2b + 1.5c = 82.50...........eq2

Eq1 x 2

2b + 2c = 90 ..................eq3

Eq 3 - Eq 1

0.5c = 7.5

c = 7.5 / 0.5

Number of cookies = 15

Number of brownies = 45 - Number of cookies

Number of brownies = 45 - 15

Number of brownies = 30

Explain how probability can be used to help a sales person forecast future sales.
Naily [24]

Answer with explanation:

A salesperson can use probability to get an idea of his business as using probability he can estimate his sale of the next month as well, based on the present and previous months sales.

It can help him sort issues or errors he is facing in his business as he will get a complete idea of his business using probability.

Moreover, he can forecast future sales by using a technique which involves assigning percentages or weighting benchmarks in sales cycle, so that he can estimate the expected revenue generated.

For example:

A supermarket sales person can assign probabilities to benchmarks in sale cycle as providing needs analysis (25 % probability), adding new product (50%Probability) , Remove a product ( 75 % probability), closing sale (100% Probability) . If these probabilities are large, then forecast model can be objective.

_____________________________________________________

So just like that by assigning probabilities to benchmarks, a sales person can forecast future sales

Answer:

Gianna makes $18 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Gianna makes 90$ for 5 hours. That means she should make $ \frac{90}{5} $ $  = 18$ every hour.

Therefore we have:

a.

HOURS                    DOLLARS

  1                                   18

  2                                  36

  3                                  54

  4                                   72

  5                                   90

  6                                   108

  7                                   126

b.

For the tabular column mark Hours on the x - axis and Dollars on the Y - axis. It can be plotted from the above table easily.

c.

If Gianna works for 8 hours she would have made 8 X 18 = 144$.

So, she will earn 144$ in 8 hours.

d.

To make 60$ she would have to work $ \frac{60}{18} $ hours = 3.33 hours.
