vekshin1

The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let y represent the total sales for x weekly sales, m represent the commision and b represent the basic salary. Hence:

400 = 1000m + b (1)

Also:

300 = 500m + b (2)

Hence:

m = 0.2 = 20%, b = $200

The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200

we believe that 42% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly. For this year, you would like to obtain a new sample to

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

A sample of 1077 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is of:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

42% of freshmen do not visit their counselors regularly.

This means that $\pi = 0.42$

98% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.02$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99$ , so $Z = 2.327$ .

How large of a sample size is required?

A sample size of n is required, and n is found when M = 0.035. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.035 = 2.327\sqrt{\frac{0.42*0.58}{n}}$

$0.035\sqrt{n} = 2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}}{0.035}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327\sqrt{0.42*0.58}}{0.035})^2$

$n = 1076.8$

Rounding up:

A sample of 1077 is required.

Jerry has a miniature model of a boat. He knows that the boat is 3 3/4 inches wide and 5 1/2 inches long. What is the actual len

FromTheMoon [43]

Width of the miniature model = $3\frac{3}{4}$ inches

Length of the miniature model = $5\frac{1}{2}$ inches

The actual width of the boat = 15 feet

Let us find the actual length of the boat.

Write it in a proportion form.

width of model : length of model : : width of actual : length of actual

$$\Rightarrow 3\frac{3}{4}:5\frac{1}{2}::15:x$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{15}{4}:\frac{11}{2}::15:x$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{\frac{15}{4}}{\frac{11}{2}} =\frac{15}{x}$

Do cross multiplication.

$$\Rightarrow{\frac{15}{4}x =15\times\frac{11}{2}$

$$\Rightarrow{\frac{15}{4}x =\frac{165}{2}$

$$\Rightarrow x =\frac{165}{2}\times{\frac{4}{15}$

⇒ x = 22

Hence the actual length of the boat is 22 feet.
