Hello! She earns a salary of $2,100, which is the fixed amount each month, plus 5% commission on her sales. To find out the amount of sales that will help her reach her goal, set up the inequality like this:
2,100 + 0.05x ≥ 2,400
We set it up like this, because $2,100 is the one-time price per month, and she earns 5% of her sales as commission. Plus, the key words "at least" means the inequality sign is greater than or equal to (≥)
How to solve this:
First off, subtract 2,100 from both sides, when you do, you get 0.05x ≥ 300. Now, divide each side by 0.05 to isolate the "x". 300/0.05 is 6,000. Let's check this. 6,000 * 5% (0.05) is 300. There. x = 6,000. Liz will need to sell $6,000 worth of items this month in order to meet her goal.
Out of 5 cards in the bag ...
-- There are 2 even numbers . . . 2 and 4 .
-- There are 3 odd numbers . . . 1, 3, and 5 .
So EITHER time, the probability of pulling an even number is 2/5 ,
and the probability of pulling an odd number is 3/5 .
The probability of pulling an even number the first time
AND an odd number the second time is
(2/5) x (3/5) = 6/25 = <em>24%</em> .
Answer:
4877 fish
Step-by-step explanation:
Each year, the fish population is multiplied by 1-6% = 0.94, so after 8 years it has been multiplied by 0.94^8 ≈ 0.609569.
At that time, the population is ...
8000×0.609569 ≈ 4877 . . . fish
