Well, let us solve this step by step.

We know that Michelle earns 349 plus 3% of the Purchase price. Let us call the Purchase price as P, so that:

 

Earnings, E = 349 + 0.03 P

 

So if she earns 8,965 (E = 8,965) so we can find P:

 

8,965 = 349 + 0.03 P

0.03 P = 8,616

P = $287,200

A person is watching a boat from the top of a lighthouse. The boat is approaching the lighthouse directly. When first noticed, t
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Boat traveled 553.24 feet towards the lighthouse.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached AB is the light house of height 200 feet.

Angle of depression of the boat from the top of a lighthouse = angle of elevation of the lighthouse from the boat = 14°52'

so 1' = \frac{1}{60} degree

so angle of elevation at point C = 14 + \frac{52}{60}

So angle of elevation from C = (14 + 0.87) = 14.87°

Similarly, when boat arrives at point D angle of elevation = 45°10' = 45 + \frac{10}{60} = 45.17°

Now we have to calculate the distance CD, traveled by the boat.

In ΔABC

tan14.87 = \frac{200}{BC}

0.2655 =  \frac{200}{BC}

BC = \frac{200}{0.26552}

BC = 753.239 feet

Similarly in ΔABD

tan45.17 = \frac{200}{BD}

1 = \frac{200}{BD}

BD = 200 feet

So distance CD = BC - BD

CD = 753.239 - 200

     = 553.24 feet

Therefore, Boat traveled 553.24 feet towards the lighthouse.

Let mAngleA = 40°. If AngleB is a complement of AngleA, and AngleC is a supplement of AngleB, find these measures. mAngleB = ° m
kati45 [8]

Answer:

B is 50° and C is 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angle

x+x=90°

40°+x=90°

x=90°-40°

x=50°

supplementary angles

x+x=180

50+x=180

x=180-50

x=30°

It is known that 70% of the customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes. a random sample of 25 customer
NikAS [45]

Let x be the discrete random variable whose value is the number of successes in n trials.

The probability distribution function for x of the binomial distribution B(n,p) is defined as

B(n,p)= nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Given that the random sample size is n=25

let x represent number of customers who purchase running shoes

Let "p" be the probability of customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes.

It is given that 70% of the customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes.

Thus p=\frac{70}{100}=0.7

Thus the Probability distribution of x is given by

P(X=x)= 25C_x(0.7)^x(1-0.7)^{25-x}, where x=0,1,2,3,...,25.
