Answer:

The percentage increase in salary of employee is 7.14 %  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The initial pay of employee = $35,000 per year

The increase pay of employee = $37,500 per year

Let The percentage increase in salary =  X %

So, X  = \frac{increase salary - initial salary}{initial salary}  × 100

Or, X  = \frac{$37,500 - $35,000}{$35,000}  × 100

Or,  X  = \frac{$2,500}{$35,000}  × 100

∴     X = 0.0714  × 100  = 7.14 %

Hence The percentage increase in salary of employee is 7.14 %   Answer

Answer:

Percentage increase = 7.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

An employee receives a pay increase from $35,000 per year to $37,500 per year. This means that the previous amount that the employee was receiving is $35,000 per year.

The amount that the employee is currently receiving is $37,500

Increase in pay =

The amount that the employee is currently receiving per year - previous amount that the employee was receiving per year. This means

Increase in pay = 37,500 - 35,000

= $2500

The percent increase = Increase in pay / previous amount that the employee was receiving per year × 100. It becomes

2500/35000 × 100

7.14%

Answer:

The parameters of the exponential distribution is 0.0133.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution is a continuous probability distribution.

The density function of exponential distribution is,  

f _{X}(x)=\theta \cdot e^{-\theta\cdot x},\ x\geq 0

Here the parameter θ is the reciprocal of the mean of the random variable <em>X</em>.

The random variable <em>X</em> has an average value of 75 seconds.

Compute the parameters of the exponential distribution as follows:

\theta=\frac{1}{\mu}\\\\

  =\frac{1}{75}\\\\=0.013333333333\\\\\approx 0.0133

Thus, the parameters of the exponential distribution is 0.0133.

For the numbers with negative sign, the larger the numerical value following the negative sign, the lower is the value of the number. The symbol, ">" means "greater than". 

From the inequalities given above, the one that makes exact sense is,
     -8.0329 > -8.045

Hence, the answer to this item is the third choice.

The function A(b) relates the area of a trapezoid with a given height of 10 and
Natali5045456 [20]

The function of the trapezoid area is:

A(x)=(B+b)*h/2

Where B and b are the bases and h is the height.

With the given data: h=10 B and b =7 and x (it may vary which one is bigger)

-----------

So that function becomes:

A(x)=(7+x)*10/2

A(x)=(7+x)*5

----------

So if you want the inverse function, you have to operate to find x:

A(x)/5=7+x

A(x)/5-7=x

----------

So the new function is:

x(A)=A/5-7
