Answer: $27,273

Step-by-step explanation:   900a=3.3100                 Write the proportion. Let a represent the amount he needs to sell.

    900a=3.3100                 Because  3.3×272.72=900 , multiply 100 by  272.72  to find a.

90027.271=3.3100                100 ×  272.72  ≈ 27,273,  so a = 27,273.

Chase needs to sell $27,273 to earn $900 in commission.

Answer:

$27,272.73= sales

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Desired commission= $900

Commission rate= 3.3% = 0.033 of sales

<u>To calculate the sales required, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Commission= sales*commission rate

900= sales*0.033

900/0.033= sales

$27,272.73= sales

Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years. The probability,
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

Step-by-step explanation:

For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they stay for the same company for more than five years, or they do not. Graduates are independent. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years.

This means that p = 0.08

Sample of 11 college graduates:

This means that n = 11

The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 11 such college graduates hired recently by companies, exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years is: the absolute tolerance is +-0.0001

The tolerance means that the answer is rounded to four decimal places.

The probability is P(X = 2). So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{11,2}.(0.08)^{2}.(0.92)^{11} = 0.1662

0.1662 = 16.62% probability that exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

10.846 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

first you add all the calories= 1410 calories

then you divide 1410 calories by 130 (the calories you can burn in one hour)

your answer is 10.846 which means that it takes 10.846 hours to consume 1410 calories.
