Answer:

$24166.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Norma Jean earns $25 hourly and works 35 hours per week.

Her earnings without commission total 35 * 25 = $875

Total commission earned by Norma = 4500 - 875 = $3625

Let the total sales made by Norma be x

15% can be expressed as 15/100

Thus, (15/100) * x = 3625 Multiplying both sides by 100

15x = 362500 Rearranging for x

x = 362500/15

x = 24 166.67

Norma should achieve total sales amounting to $24166.67

Answer: total sales amounting to $24167

Step-by-step explanation:

Norma Jean's standard pay is $25 for each hour of work.

Let x signify her weekly sales total.

She works for 35 hours each week, receiving a 15% commission on her total sales. This indicates that her commission from sales worth $x will be

15/100 × x = 0.15 × x = 0.15x

Consequently, with total sales of $x per week, her overall compensation would be

35 × 25 + 0.15x

= 875 + 0.15x

Thus, to reach $4,500 within a week, her sales amount must satisfy:

4500 = 875 + 0.15x

0.15x = 4500 - 875 = 3625

x = 3625/0.15

x = $24167

The formula F=9/5(k-273.15)+32 converts a temperature from kelvin K to degrees Fahrenheit F.
Svet_ta [12734]

Step One

Deduct 32 from both sides.

F - 32 = \frac{9}{5}(k - 273.15)

Step Two

Multiply each side by \frac{5}{9}.

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) = \frac{5}{9} \times \frac{9}{5}(k - 273.15)

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) = k - 273.15

Step Three

Add 273.15 to both sides.

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) + 273.15 = k

Problem B

F = 180

Solve for k

k = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32) + 273.15

k = \frac{5}{9}(180 - 32) + 273.15

k = \frac{5}{9} \times 148 + 273.15

k = 82.2222 + 273.15

k = 355.3722

k = 355.4  <<< Answer

Emma earns $6 each time she mows the lawn and $8 per hour for babysitting. She is saving up to buy a new pair of jeans that cost
zzz [12365]

Answer:

The illustration provided shows the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> number of times Emma cuts the grass

y ------> hours Emma spends babysitting

it is known that

6x+8y\geq 48 ------> represents the inequality of the scenario

The solution is the shaded region above the solid line where both x and y are positive

The equation for the solid line is represented as 6x+8y=48

The slope of the line is negative m=-\frac{3}{4}

The y-intercept is at the point (0,6) (the y-value when x is zero)

The x-intercept is at (8,0) (the x-value when y equals zero)

therefore

The illustration provided shows the graph

A survey asked students whether they have any siblings and pets. the survey data are shown in the relative frequency table.
PIT_PIT [12445]

Response:

The probability that a student has a pet, given they do not have any siblings is:

Option: D ( 60%)

Step-by-step breakdown:

Let A represent the situation where a student lacks a sibling.

Let B signify the occurrence that a student has a pet.

Consequently, A∩B refers to the event in which a student is without siblings but possesses a pet.

Let P denote the chance of an event happening.

We need to determine:

P(B|A)

From our knowledge:

P(B|A)=\dfrac{P(A\bigcap B)}{P(A)}

From the data provided:

P(A)=0.25

and P(A∩B)=0.15

Thus,

P(B|A)=\dfrac{0.15}{0.25}\\\\P(B|A)=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\P(B|A)=0.6

which expressed as a percentage is:

0.6\times 100=60\%

Therefore, the probability is:

60%
