Answer:

The earnings gap, over a career spanning 30 years, between men and women totals $1,200,150

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculated annually.

The typical male earns $90,761 each year.

The typical female earns $50,756 per annum.

Therefore, the annual difference is:

90,761 - 50,756 = 40,005

Across 30 years:

30*40,005 = 1,200,150

The earnings gap over a 30-year career, when comparing men and women, is $1,200,150

Leona [12618]
Mel descends 50-35=15 feet in 5-2=3 seconds. Thus, her descent rate is 15/3=5 ft/sec.
Victor descends 60-50=10 feet in 4-1=3 seconds. Hence, his descent rate is 10/3=3⅓ ft/sec. Mel is faster, traveling at 5 ft/sec.

Which polynomial function could be represented by the graph below?
AnnZ [12381]
According to the graph, which depicts a parabola, we can determine that the function will be quadratic. First, we identify the zeros as x=2 and x=4. Next, we can form the function using a point to solve for 'a'. For instance, at x=3 and y=-3, we can find 'a.' Plugging back into the equation, we can perform necessary multiplications to reach the final function.
