Number of returns = 47
Number of returns that contain errors = 5
Number of returns that does not contain error = 47 - 5 = 42
P(selecting none that contains error in the unreplaced selection) = 42/47 x 41/46 x 40/45 = 68880 / 97290 = 0.708
option C is the correct answer.
Answer:
$20.40
Step-by-step explanation:
20% off means that the new price of the skirt will be 80% of the original price:
$30(100% – 20%) = $30(80%)
Converting the percent to a decimal gives:
$30(0.8) = $24.00
There is an additional 15% off the sale price of $24.00, so the final price is 85% of the sale price:
$24(100% – 15%) = $24(85%)
Again converting the percent to a decimal gives:
$24(0.85) = $20.40
19^2 or 361 is the answer to the equation
The salesman earns $850 per automobile he sells.
Since x represents the amount of automobiles the salesman sells, we can apply the commission as a coefficient to this variable. Therefore, the total commission that the salesman earns can be represented by $850x.
The bonus cheque is only received if the salesman's commission income is <em>at least </em>$6,800. 'at least' means that the salesman can still receive the cheque if his commission is exactly $6,800. The sign that we can use for this situation is the greater than or equal to sign, ≥.
The inequality that shows the commission income needed for the cheque is $850x ≥ $6,800. However, this question asks for the number of automobiles the salesman must sell to get the cheque.
Divide both sides by $850, as that represents his sales from one commission:
x ≥ 8
The inequality x ≥ 8 represents the amount of automobiles the salesman will need to sell to get the bonus cheque.
