. A salesman sold 300 bags of maize to a retailer at Kshs .2000 each .He was given a commission of 3%.The salesman allowed a discount of 0.2% on the maize sold. This discount was deducted from his commission. (a) Calculate (i) The discount allowed

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The discount allowed per bag is kshs 4

while the discount allowed on all the 300 bags is kshs 1,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the discount allowed on the sales of the bag of maize.

From the question, we are told that the sales man allowed a discount of 0.2% on the maize sold.

Now, to find the amount of this, we proceed as follows;

What we simply need to do is to find 0.2% of the each of the price of the maize bags, and then we can proceed to find the total discount given on all maize bags sold.

The discount on each bag of maize would be;

0.2% of kshs 2000

That would be;

0.2/100 * 2,000 = 400/100 = kshs 4

Since there are 300 bags, the total amount of discount allowed is 300 * kshs 4 = kshs 1,200

The straight line PQ with a gradient -2 passing through point (-3, 10). Find the y-intercept of the straight line PQ . Please help me and explain it . Thank you so much ​

Answers

Answer:

y- intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope( gradient ) and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, 10) into the partial equation

10 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 10 - 6 = 4

Thus y- intercept c = 4

n circle L, arc NOP is 90° and the radius is 5 units. Which statement best describes the length of arc NOP? circle M with radii LM, LN, LO, and LP so that arc MNOP is created

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 2\pi r[/tex] i.e circle circumference

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided as per the question is

Arc NOP = Central angle = [tex]\theta = 90^\circ[/tex]

The Radius of circle = 5 units

The statement is shown below:-

we need to determine the statement which defines the best length of arc NOP

Arc length is

= [tex]\frac{control\ angle}{360} \times circumference\ of\ circle[/tex]

now we will put the values into the above formula

= [tex]\frac{90}{360} \times 2\pi r[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 2\pi r[/tex]

Hence, the [tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 2\pi r[/tex] i.e circle circumference is the best statement described.

holly drinks 2 2/5 litre of water each day. The water comes in 1 2/5 litre bottles. How many bottles does Holly drink in a week?

Answers

Answer:Holly drank 12 bottles in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the fraction 1 2/5 litre into a decimal, by doing this, we can know how many litres are there in 2/5.

So= 1 2/5

= 2 ÷5 = 0.4

= 1 + 0.4 = 1.4 liters

1.4 liters is the amount of water in a bottle.

Next, also change the fraction 2 2/5 litres into a decimal.

So=2 2/5

= 2÷5 = 0.4

= 2 + 0.4 = 2.4 liters

She drinks 2.4 liters a day.

To find how many bottles she drank in 1 week, we must multiply the amount of water she drinks in a day to the days in a week.

So= 1 week= 7 days

= 1 day= 2.4 liters

So= 2.4 × 7 = 16.8

She drinks 16.8 in a week.

To find how much bottles she drank in a week, we must divide the amount of liters she drank in one week to the amount of liters are there in a bottle.

So= 16.8 ÷ 1.4= 12 bottles

Holly drinks 12 bottles in a week.

I hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's wrong and complicated.

Getaway Travel Agency surveyed a random sample of 45 4545 of their clients about their vacation plans. Of the clients surveyed, 21 2121 expected that they would go on 3 33 vacations in the next year. There are 516 516516 Getaway Travel Agency clients. Based on the data, what is the most reasonable estimate for the number of Getaway Travel Agency clients who expect to go on 3 33 vacations in the next year?

Answers

Answer:

241

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of random samples surveyed = 45

Of the random samples surveyed, 21 expected to go on 3 vacations in the next year:

Total number of clients = 516

Percentage of random sample surveyed who intend to go 3 vacations in the next year :

(21 / 45) * 100

0.4666667 * 100 = 46.7%

That is 46.7% of surveyed sample intend to go on 3 vacations in the next year.

Therefore using these to make inference about the number of total client who will go on 3 vacations in the next year:

46.7% of total clients

(46.7 / 100) * 516

= 240.8

= 241 ( to the nearest whole number)

from a group of 25 men,12 were to be given gifts.What is the probability of choosing a man who did not a gift​

Find the probability of choosing a man who did not receive a gift:

P = 25/25 - 12/25 = 13/25

Answer:

13/25

Step-by-step explanation:

When you subtract 12 from 25, you get 13. So, 13 men did not get a gift.

hey can you help me w/ some math ?? i make $8.50 an hour. monday through sunday only wednesday’s off. how much will i have in 2 years from today ? monday, tuesday & sunday is from 4-9pm .... then friday,saturday & sunday is from 4-10pm.

Answers

Answer:

$29252.1669

Approximately $29252.1

Step-by-step explanation:

For Monday,  Tuesday and Sunday:

=> 8.50 x 5 x 3

=> 8.5 x 15

=> 127.5

I multiplied 8.5 and 5 because you work for 5 hours. Then multiplied them with 3 it is for 3 days.

For Friday, Saturday, Thursday:

=> 8.5 x 6 x 3

=> 8.5 x 18

=> 153

I multiplied 8.5 and 6 because you work for 6 hours. Then multiplied them with 3 because it is for 3 days.

In 1 week you get:

=> 153 + 127.5

=> 280.5

In 1 year there are 52.1429 weeks.

So, you get:

=> 52.1429 x 280.5

=> 14626.08345

For 2 years, you get:

=> 14626.08345x 2

=>  29252.1669

=> Approximately $29252.1

An=
A50=

Answers

Answer:

an = 17n - 46

a50 = 804

Step-by-step explanation:

-29, -12, 5, 22, ...

Subtract each number from the next one.

-12 - (-29) = 17

5 - (-12) = 17

22 - 5 = 17

The common difference is 17. This is an arithmetic sequence which starts with -29, and in which each subsequent value is 17 more than the previous value.

a1 = -29

a2 = -29 + 17

a3 = -29 + 2(17)

a4 = -29 + 3(17)

Notice that for each term, you have -29 and something added to it. What you add to -29 is 17 multiplied by 1 less than the number of the term. For term 1, 1 less than 1 is 0. You add 0 * 17 to -29 and get -29. term 1 is -29. For term 2, 1 less than 2 is 1. You add 1 * 17 to -29 and get -12, etc.

For term n, 1 less than n is n - 1. Add (n - 1) * 17 to -29 to get term n.

an = -29 + 17(n - 1)

This formula can be simplified.

an = -29 + 17n - 17

an = -46 + 17n

an = 17n - 46

a50 = 17(50) - 46

a50 = 804

The question seem incomplete; however, I'll give a general explanation

FIrst, when the formula is copied from C5 to C6, A2 and C2 changes to A3 and C3 respectively.

This is because they are relative references and they behave on a relative position.

This implies that, when the formula is in cell C5, the formula considers cells A2 and C2 when executing the formula;

Jeanette purchased a concert ticket on a web site. The original price of the ticket was $75.

She used a coupon code to receive a 20% discount. The website applied a 10% service fee

to the discounted price. Jeannette's ticket was less than the original price by what percent?

Answers

Answer:

Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

original price = $75

percentage discount = 20% of original price = 20% of $75

discounted price = [tex]\frac{20}{100} \times\ 75\ =\ 15[/tex]

discounted price = $15

website service fee = 10% of original price

website service fee = [tex]\frac{10}{100}\times 75 = \$7.5[/tex]

New discounted price = discount price + website service fee

= 15 + 7.5 = $22.5

Next, let us calculate what percentage of the original price that will give the new discount price.

Let the percentage of the original price = x%

x% of 75 = $22.5

[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times\ 75\ = 22.5\\\\\frac{75x}{100} = 22.5\\\\75x = 2250\\\\x = \frac{2250}{75} \\\\x = 30[/tex]

Therefore, Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%

Find the missing probability. P(A)=15,P(A∪B)=1225,P(A∩B)=7100 ,P(B)=?

Answers

Answer:

p(B) = 8310

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the addition rule of probability of two events to solve the question. According to the rule given two events A and B;

p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B) where;

A∪B is the union of the two sets A and B

A∩B is the intersection between two sets A and B

Given parameters

P(A)=15

P(A∪B)=1225

P(A∩B)=7100

Required

Probability of event B i.e P(B)

Using the expression above to calculate p(B), we will have;

p(A∪B) = p(A)+p(B) - p(A∩B)

1225 = 15+p(B)-7100

p(B) = 1225-15+7100

p(B) = 8310

Hence the missing probability p(B) is 8310.
