Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory. He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.

He wants to figure out his per-diem (daily) pay, so he divides 40,000 by 365, which yields $109.59. Is this the correct answer?

No because 40,000 doesn't include the paid vacations and holidays. the 40,000 is likely the working salary

Answer:

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is :

Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory.

He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.

So total paid holidays become = 14+5=19 days

Subtracting 19 from 365 days and assuming that Jerry works for 365 days a year.

We get = 365-19=346 days

So, his per day salary will be = \frac{40000}{346}= 115.60

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.

Suppose 1000 people enter a chess tournament. Use a rooted tree model of the tournament to determine how many games must be play
Vlada [557]

Answer: 999 games

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many ways to illustrate the rooted tree model to calculate the number of games that must be played until only one player is left who has not lost.

We could go about this manually. Though this would be somewhat tedious, I have done it and attached it to this answer. Note that when the number of players is odd, an extra game has to be played to ensure that all entrants at that round of the tournament have played at least one game at that round. Note that there is no limit on the number of games a player can play; the only condition is that a player is eliminated once the player loses.

The sum of the figures in the third column is 999.

We could also use the formula for rooted trees to calculate the number of games that would be played.

i=\frac{l - 1}{m - 1}

where i is the number of "internal nodes," which represents the number of games played for an "<em>m</em>-ary" tree, which is the number of players involved in each game and l is known as "the number of leaves," in this case, the number of players.

The number of players is 1000 and each game involves 2 players. Therefore, the number of games played, i, is given by

i=\frac{l - 1}{m - 1} = i=\frac{1000 - 1}{2 - 1} = \frac{999}{1} =999

A 1500 kg hippo is completely submerged, standing on the bottom of a lake. What is the approximate value of the upward normal fo
juin [17]

Answer:

About 428 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight = 1,500 * 9.8 = 14,700 N

Density = Mass ÷ Volume

1,030 = 1,500 ÷ V

V = 1,500 ÷ 1,030  = 1.46 m^3.

Buoyant force = Density * g * V  

Buoyant force = 1,000 * 9.8 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)

Buoyant force = 9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)  = 14,272 N.

Net force = 14,700 – [(9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)]
