(Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.) In 2011, the IRS increased the deductible mileage cost to

55.5 cents from 51 cents.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\%Change = 8.8\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Initial = 51\ cents[/tex]

[tex]Final = 55.5\ cents[/tex]

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as;

[tex]\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{55.5 - 51 }{51 } * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{4.5}{51} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{4.5* 100\%}{51}[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = \frac{450\%}{51}[/tex]

[tex]\%Change = 8.8\%[/tex]

Hence, the percentage change is approximately 8.8%

What is the quotient of

Answers

Answer:

3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In a certain company a salesman is paid a fixed salary for $3140 per month plus an annual commision of 2% on the TOTAL value of cars sold for the year. If the salesman sold cars valued at $720000 in 2009 calculate:
(i) his fixed salary for the year

(ii) the amount he recieved in commision for the year

(iii) his TOTAL income for the year​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 12 months × fixed salary

= 12 × 3140

= 37680 $

(ii) commission = total × 2%

= 720000 × 0.02

= 14400 $

(iii) fixed salary + commission

= 37680 + 14400 = 52080 $

P and q are integers that are multiple of 5. Which of this

not true about p and q

(a) P + q is divisible by 5

(b) P –q is divisible by 10

(c) P + q is divisible by 20

(d) P + q is divisible by 25​

Answers

Answer:

we conclude that the only option (a) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the multiples of 5 are the numbers which we get when we multiply by 5.

i.e.

5×1=5

5×2=10

Here, 5 and 10 are multiples of 5.

Let p and q are integers that are multiples of 5.

Let us consider

p=5

q=10

so

p+q=5+10

     = 15

A number is divisible by 5 if it ends in 5 or 0.

i.e. 15/5 = 3

so p+q is divisible by 3 as there is no remainder left.

Therefore, option (a) is true.

Checking the other options:

(b) P –q is divisible by 10

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5-10

     = -5

Numbers that are divisible by 10 need to be even or divisible by 2 and divisible by 5.

As -5 is not divisible by 2.

So, option b is NOT true.

(c) P +q is divisible by 20

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5+10

     = 15

Divisibility rule of  20  implies that the last two digits of the number are either  00  or divisible by  20 .

Therefore, P + q= 20 is not divisible by 20 as we don't get the whole number.

(d) P + q is divisible by 25​

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5+10

     = 15

p+q=15 is not divisible by 25 as it does not end with 00, 25, 50, or 75.

so, option d is NOT correct.

Therefore, we conclude that the only option (a) is true.

20. John Navarro is a salesperson in the appliance department at Morris

Appliance, Inc. He is guaranteed a minimum salary of $185 per week, or

5.5 percent of his total sales—whichever is greater. What is his gross pay

for a week in which his total sales were $3,422?

Answers

Answer:

$373.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

weekly pay = $185

commission= 5.5% of sales= 0.055

let the sale be x

and his gross pay be represented by y

hence the expression for the total/gross pay is

y=0.055x+185

Step two:

Required is the gross pay y for x=3422

substituting we have

y=0.055*3422+185

y=188.21+185

y=373.21

Hence for a sale of $3,422 made his gross pay is $373.21

if two dice are rolled one time, find the probability of getting a sum less than or equal to 4 ​

Answers

Answer:

The probability of getting a sum less than or equal to 4 ​is 1/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

When two dices are rolled, the number of outcomes are: 6*6 = 36 which is written in ordered pairs consisting of outcome of both dices.

When two dices are rolled, the number of sample space elements is:

[tex]n(S) = 36[/tex]

Let A be the event that the sum of outcomes is less than or equal to 4:

[tex]A = \{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(2,1),(2,2),(3,1)\}[/tex]

That implies

[tex]n(A) = 6[/tex]

The probability of getting sum less than or equal to 4 will be:

[tex]P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} = \frac{6}{36} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Hence,

The probability of getting a sum less than or equal to 4 ​is 1/6

The probability of getting a sum less than as well as equivalent to 4 will be "[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]".

Probability:

The probability that may be an outcome will happen together in random experiment. The greater the likelihood of such an occurrence, the further probable it will materialize.

Let,

The event that the sum less than as well as equivalent to 4 be "A".

According to the question,

Whenever the 2 dices are rolled, the no. of outcomes will be:

= 6 × 6

= 36

and,

The no. of sample elements will be:

n(S) = 36

Now,

A = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 1)}

The probability be:

P(A) = [tex]\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}[/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{6}{36}[/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Thus the response above is correct.

Seema deposited $800 in a saving account earning 2.88% compounded annually. To the nearest cent, how much will she have in 16 years? Do not include the dollar sign in your answer.​

Answers

Answer:

1260.04

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest is:

A = P(1+[tex]\frac{r}{n}[/tex][tex])^{nt}[/tex] where A is the final amount, P is the initial principal balance, r is the interest rate, n is the number of times interest applied per time period and t is the number of time periods elapsed. Since the deposit was compounded annually, just like the interest, we can omit the n in the equation.

Applying the formula to question:

800(1+[tex]\frac{2.88}{100}[/tex][tex])^{16}[/tex] = 1260.04 (rounded off to nearest cent since it's money)

A communications tower is supported by two wires, connected at the same point on the ground. One is attached to the tower at D and the long-on at C. The angle AD makes with the ground is 30 ° and the angle between the two wires is 10 °. How much below the top of the tower is the shorter one attached?

Answers

Answer:

10.99 m

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️What we are basically asked to solve here is to find the distance between C and D.

To find CD, find the length of BC, and BD. Their difference will give us CD.

Thus, BC - BD = CD.

✍️Finding BC using trigonometric ratio formula:

[tex] \theta = 30 + 10 = 40 [/tex]

Opposite side = BC = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

[tex] tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

Plug in the values

[tex] tan(40) = \frac{BC}{42} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 42

[tex] tan(40) \times 42 = \frac{BC}{42} \times 42 [/tex]

[tex] 35.24 = BC [/tex]

BC = 35.24 m

✍️Finding BD using trigonometric ratio formula:

[tex] \theta = 30 [/tex]

Opposite side = BD = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

[tex] tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

Plug in the values

[tex] tan(30) = \frac{BD}{42} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 42

[tex] tan(30) \times 42 = \frac{BD}{42} \times 42 [/tex]

[tex] 24.25 = BD [/tex]

BD = 24.25 m

✍️How much below the top of the tower is the shorter one attached:

Thus,

BC - BD = CD

35.24 m - 24.25 m = 10.99 m

Answers

Answer:

Heidi wants to compute:

17 - 9.

First, she adds to get 10, (we want to subtract 10, this is easier than subtracting 9) then she can do:

17 - 9 + 0

adding zero does not change the sum

1 - 1 = 0

then:

17 - 9 + 0 = 17 - 9 + 1 - 1

Now we can do:

17 - 9 - 1 + 1

17 - (9 + 1) + 1

17 - 10 + 1

(17 - 10) + 1

7 + 1 = 8

Then, first she needs to add -1, in order to subtract 10, and then she must add 1. As we added a number and its inverse, in total we added zero, so the sum did not change, but was easier to compute.
