Answer:

12,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current employees be x

65% increase in number = 0.65x

If the total number of employees after the increase is 20,460, then;

x + 0.65x = 20,460

1.65x = 20,460

x = 20,460/1.65

x = 12,400

Hence the current number of employees is 12,400

Is this number written in scientific notation? 33.4 × 10 − 2 Group of answer choices Yes it is in scientific notation No it is n

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

<h3>No it is not in scientific notation</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a scientific notation is expressed as:

A * 10^n where;

A is any number from between 1 and 10

Given the expression 33.4 × 10^ − 2

Comparing with the general formula, you will see that A = 33.2

Since the value of A does not fall between 1 and 10, hence the expression 33.4 × 10^-2 is not a scientific notation

A company provides a monthly pension to its employees. A person retiring at 62 retires and receives a full monthly pension. If t

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The reduction is 8.6%

Explanation:

Call F the full monthly pension of a person retiring at 62.

If a person continues to work the pension grows at a rate of 6% per year, compounded monthly, so use the compounded growing formula:

$Pension=F(1+r/12)^{12t}$

Where r = 6 / 100 = 0.06, and t = number of years after retirement.

For retirement at 65.5:

t = 65.5 - 62 = 3.5

$Pension=F(1+0.06/12)^{12\times 3.5}=1.233F$

For retirement at 67:

t = 67 - 62 = 5

$Pension=F(1+0.06/12)^{12\times 5}=1.349F$

Percent reduction of people who retire at 65.5 compared to what they would receive at 67:

$(1.349F-1.233F)\times 100/(1.349F)=8.6\%$
