Answer:

a) c = (5/100)*d

b) c = 0.05*d

c) The ratio between what Lee recieves and what he sold.

d) d = 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Lee earns 5% in commission for each sale then:

a) c = (5/100)*d

b) c = 0.05*d

c) In this context the constant of proportionality means the ratio of the value Lee sold that he'll earn as a comission.

d) Since he wants to earn $100, then c = 100 and we solve for d

c = 0.05*d

100 = 0.05*d

0.05*d = 100

d = 100/0.05 = $2000

He needs to sell $2000.

What is 4/2/7 as an improper fraction

Zanzabum

If "4/2/7" is all we have to work with, then PEMDAS rules will save the day. Do the division from left to right.

4/2 becomes 2. Then we have 2/7, a proper fraction. I don't see where an improper fraction would come from in this case.

The probability that a male will be colorblind is .042. Find the probabilities that in a group of 53 men, the following are true

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

$\displaystyle P(X=x)=\binom{n}{x}p^xq^{n-x}\\\\P(X=5)=\binom{53}{5}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X=5)=\frac{53!}{(53-5)!*5!}(0.042)^5(0.958)^{48}\\\\P(X=5)\approx0.0478$

Part B

$P(X\leq5)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)\\\\P(X\leq5)=\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^1(1-0.042)^{53-1}+\binom{53}{2}(0.042)^2(1-0.042)^{53-2}+\binom{53}{3}(0.042)^3(1-0.042)^{53-3}+\binom{53}{4}(0.042)^4(1-0.042)^{53-4}+\binom{53}{1}(0.042)^5(1-0.042)^{53-5}\\\\P(X\leq5)\approx0.9767$

Part C

$\displaystyle P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\\\P(X\geq1)=1-(1-0.042)^{53}\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx1-0.1029\\\\P(X\geq1)\approx0.8971$
