A salesperson earns 4% commission on furnace sales. What is the commission that the salesperson earns on the sale of $40,000 wor

Monica [59]

Answer:The commission that the salesperson earns on the sale is $1320

The commission would be double when he doubles his sales of furnaces

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

A salesperson earns 4% commission on furnace sales

The furnace sales have worth $33,000

We need to find the commission that the salesperson earns

∵ The salesperson earns 4% commission on furnaces sale

∵ The furnaces sale have worth $33,000

- Find the 4% of 33,000

∴ The salesperson earns 4% of 33,000

∵ 4% × 33,000 = × 33,000 = 1320

∴ The salesperson earns $1320

The commission that the salesperson earns on the sale is $1320

∵ The salesperson doubles his sales of furnaces

∴ The commission would be double

That because the commission is a constant percent from his sales of furnaces, so if the amount of his sales of furnaces doubles , then his commission also doubles, it is a direct proportion relationship

Commission = constant (4%) × amount of furnaces sale

The commission would be double when he doubles his sales of furnaces

Write an equation of a line containing (2, 1) and (3, 4) in point-slope form.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

$y-1=3(x-2)$

Or

$y-4=3(x-3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is given by:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The line containing (2, 1) and (3, 4) has slope;

$m=\frac{4-1}{3-2}=3$

The point-slope form is given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

We substitute the point and slope to get:

$y-1=3(x-2)$

Or

$y-4=3(x-3)$

A teacher records the number of students present in her 1st period class each day. This count is a ___________ random variable.

blagie [28]

This count is a discrete random variable (option A).

<h3>What is a discrete random variable?</h3>

A discrete random variable is a variable that contains integers that can only be a limited number of possible values. A discrete random variable is can contain only a finite set of numbers .

An example of discrete random variable is the number of students in the first period class. It is impossible for the number of students in the class to go on indefinitely.

Discrete random variable has the following properties:
