The average annual salary of the employees of a company in the year 2005 was $70,000. It increased by the same factor each year

dezoksy [38]

We can make use of the general formula for the geometric series to generate the function representing the average annual salary.
an = a0(r)^(n-1)

Or
f(x) = a0(r)^(x - 1)

Plugging in the given values for the year 2005 and 2006 to ge the value of r.
82000 = 70000 (r)^(1-1)
r = 1.1714

Therefore, the function is:
f(x) = 70,000 (1.1714)^(x-1)

A vendor sells hot dogs, bags of potato chips, and soft drinks. A customer buys 4 hot dogs, 3 bags of potato chips, and 4 soft d

GuDViN [60]

The price of chips is $ 0.75, the price of a hot dog is $ 2 and the price of a soft drink is $ 1.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A customer buys 4 hot dogs, 3 bags of potato chips, and 4 soft drinks for $15.25.

The price of a hot dog is $1.25 more than the price of a bag of potato chips.

The cost of a soft drink is $2.75 less than the price of two hot dogs.

To find the cost of each item.

Let,

The price of chips = x

The price of a hot dog = x+1.25

Price of two hot dog = 2(x+1.25) = 2x+2.5

The price of a soft drink = 2x+2.5-2.75 = 2x-0.25

Now,

According to the problem,

4(x+1.25)+3x+4(2x-0.25) = 15.25

or, 15x+5-1 = 15.25

or, 15x = 11.25

or, x = 0.75

Hence,

The price of chips = $ 0.75

The price of a hot dog = $ 0.75+1.25 = $ 2

The price of a soft drink = $ 2×0.75-0.25 = $ 1.25

If a sample of 362 customers is taken from a population of 5530 customers,

inysia [295]

Using concepts of sample and population, it is found that the sample variance is representative of 362 and 5530 customers ages, option D.

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

In sampling, the information is taken from a sample, and is used to estimate it for the whole population.

In this problem, we have a sample of 362 and a population of 5530 customers.
The sample variance $s^2$ is calculated from the sample, and used as an estimate for the population variance. Thus, it can be said that it represents both 362 and 5530 customers, and the correct option is D.
