Answer:

1) His total commission is $1,234.3

2) The purchase of the car is $24,790.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 21640*0.02= 432.8+ 250= 682.8

15075*0.02= 301.5+ 250= 551.5

682.8+ 551.5= 1,234.3

2) 745.8- 250= 495.8/ 0.02= 24,790

Answer:

A). Commission = $1234.3

B). Purchase of the car = $24790

Step-by-step explanation:

A).The commission earned on the sale of a car is represented by the equation

C(p) = 250 + 0.02p

Where C represents the commission and p represents the purchase price.

If the purchase price of the car is $15075 then

C(p) = 250 + 0.02 × 15075

       = 250 + 301.50

       = $551.50

If the purchase price of the car was $21640 then

C(p) = 250 + 0.02×(21640)

       = 250 + 432.80

       = $682.80

Therefore, total commission on these cars = $551.50 + $682.80 = $1234.3

B). If C(p) = 745.80 then we have to calculate the purchase of the car.

745.80 = 250 + 0.02p

0.02p = 745.80 - 250

0.02p = 495.80

p = \frac{495.8}{0.02}

  = $24790

Therefore, purchase of the car will be $24790.

The buyer for an electronics store wants to estimate the proportion of defective wireless game controllers in a shipment of 5,00
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

We conlude that it is cluster random sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:  

The buyer for an electronics store wants to estimate the proportion of defective wireless game controllers in a shipment of 5,000 controllers from the store's primary supplier. The shipment consists of 200 boxes each containing 25 controllers. The buyer numbers the boxes from 1 to 200 and randomly selects six numbers in that range. She then opens the six boxes with the corresponding numbers, examines all 25 controllers in each of these boxes, and determines the proportion of the 150 controllers that are defective.

We conlude that it is cluster random sample.

Which function has a vertex on the y-axis?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you expand out the expression, you should get f(x) = x² - 4, where only vertical movement is present. Therefore, the vertex is on the y-int at (0, -4) and your answer is the 3rd choice.

Erica earned a total of $50,450 last year from her two jobs. The amount she earned from her job at the store was $1,250 more tha
Mariana [72]

Erica earned a total of $50,450 last year from her two jobs. The amount she earned from her job at the store was $1,250 more than four times the amount she earned from her job at the college.

Lets x be the amount she earned from here job at college

amount she earned at the store = 4 * amount earned at college + 1250

= 4x + 1250

Amount earned at college + amount earned at store = 50450

x + 4x + 1250 = 50450

5x + 1250 = 50450

Subtract 1250 from both sides

5x = 49200 (divide by 5)

x = 9840

she earn $9840 from her job at the college

What is the error due to using linear interpolation to estimate the value of sinxsin⁡x at x = \pi/3? your answer should have at
Serhud [2]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • using y = x, the error is about 0.1812
  • using y = (x -π/4 +1)/√2, the error is about 0.02620
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.

If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812

You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.

___

If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620
