10% of 2,340 per month is $234. Multiply that by 12 and you have:

$2,808 Per Year.

We are given to understand as per the problem that one must save 10% of their take home pay.

Reggie's take home pay is $2,340 per month

As per the rule Reggie must save 10% of 2,340 per month = 0.10*2,340 = $234 per month

Since we need to know the savings in a year, we have to multiply the monthly savings by 12 since there are 12 months a year

Minimum amount per year that he should save = $234 *12 = $2,808

Minimum amount per year that he should save = $2,808

NeX [460]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine a 95% confidence interval for the mean salary of all graduates from the English department.

Number of sample, n = 400

Mean, u = $25,000

Standard deviation, s = $2,500

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z × standard deviation/√n

It becomes

25000 ± 1.96 × 2500/√400

= 25000 ± 1.96 × 125

= 25000 ± 245

The lower end of the confidence interval is 25000 - 245 =24755

The upper end of the confidence interval is 25000 + 245 = 25245

Therefore, with 95% confidence interval, the mean salary of all graduates from the English department is between $24755 and $25245

The box which measures 70cm X 36cm X 12cm is to be covered by a canvas. How many meters of canvas of width 80cm would be require
grigory [225]

Answer:

142.2 meters.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a box measures 70 cm X 36 cm X 12 cm is to be covered by a canvas.      

Let us find total surface area of box using surface area formula of cuboid.

\text{Total surface area of cuboid}=2(lb+bh+hl), where,

l = Length of cuboid,

b = Breadth of cuboid,

w = Width of cuboid.

\text{Total surface area of box}=2(70\cdot36+36\cdot 12+12\cdot 70)

\text{Total surface area of box}=2(2520+432+840)

\text{Total surface area of box}=2(3792)

\text{Total surface area of box}=7584

Therefore, the total surface area of box will be 7584 square cm.  

To find the length of canvas that will cover 150 boxes, we will divide total surface area of 150 such boxes by width of canvass as total surface area of canvas will also be the same.

\text{Width of canvas* Length of canvass}=\text{Total surface area of 150 boxes}

80\text{ cm}\times\text{ Length of canvass}=150\times 7584\text{cm}^2

\text{ Length of canvass}=\frac{150\times 7584\text{ cm}^2}{80\text{ cm}}

\text{ Length of canvass}=\frac{1137600\text{ cm}^2}{80\text{ cm}}

\text{ Length of canvass}=14220\text{ cm}

Let us convert the length of canvas into meters by dividing 14220 by 100 as 1 meter equals to 100 cm.

\text{ Length of canvass}=\frac{14220\text{ cm}}{100\frac{cm}{m}}

\text{ Length of canvass}=\frac{14220\text{ cm}}{100\frac{cm}{m}}

\text{ Length of canvass}=\frac{14220\text{ cm}}{100}\times\frac{m}{cm}

\text{ Length of canvass}=142.20\text{ m}

Therefore, 142.2 meters of canvas of width 80 cm required to cover 150 such boxes.

What is the product of 8x-3 and x2- 4x +8
Dmitriy789 [7]
A product is the answer that you get when you multiply numbers together. So for this problem, you have 2 groups to multiply together. Since I cannot show a square or cubed x, I will put an x2 for x squared and an x3 for x cubed. You have to multiply each number in the first parentheses by each number in the second parentheses. Then combine any like sets.

(8x-3)(x2-4x+8)
8x3-32x2+64x-6x+12x-24
8x3-32x2+70x-24

So the answer is 8x cubed minus 32x squared plus 70x minus 24. Whew! That's a long one. Hope I didn't miss anything.
