Carlene's employer's contribution to the 401(k) was of $3,200., using proportions.
What is a proportion?A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and this fraction is combined with basic arithmetic operations, especially multiplication and division, to find the desired measures in the context of a problem.
The proportion of her salary that she contributed to the 401(k) plan is of:
4000/40000 = 0.1.
The first 6% of her salary is:
0.06 x 40000 = $2,400.
Hence her employee contributed $2,400 relative to the first 6% of her salary.
For the 4% between 6% and 10%, the employee contributed 50% of her contributions, hence:
0.5 x (4000 - 2400) = 0.5 x 1600 = $800.
Hence the total contribution by the employee is of:
2400 + 800 = $3,200.

16 25 24 19 33 25 34 46 37
33 42 40 37 34 49 73 46 45
Answer:
Mean = 35.56
Median = 35.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
16 25 24 19 33 25 34 46 37
33 42 40 37 34 49 73 46 45
Reordered data :
16, 19, 24, 25, 25, 33, 33, 34, 34, 37, 37, 40, 42, 45, 46, 46, 49, 73
The mean = ΣX / n
n = sample size ; ΣX = sum of values
The mean = 658 / 18
The mean = 36.56
The Median = 1/2(n+1)th term
1/2(18+1)th term = 1/2(19)th term = 9.5 term
Median = (9th + 10th) / 2 = (34 + 37) / 2 = 35.5

A function of the form f(x)=ab^x is modified so that the b value remains the same but the a value is increased by 2. How do the domain and range of a new function compare to the domain and range of the original function?
Answer:
The domain and range remain the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
First, we must determine what increasing a by 2 really does to the exponential function.
In f(x)=ab^x, a represents the initial value (y-intercept) of the function while b represents the common ratio for each consecutive value of f(x).
Increasing a by 2 means moving the y-intercept of the function up by 2. If the original function contained the point (0,x), the new function would contain the point (0,x+2).
The domain remains the same; it is still the set of all real x-values. This is true for any exponential function, regardless of any transformations.
The range remains the same as well; for the original function, it would have been [tex]y\neq 0[/tex]. Because increasing a by 2 does not move the entire function up or down, the range remains the same.
I hope this helps!

obtain the value of X for which (X+1),(X-5),(X-2) is a geometric progression.hence find the sum of the first 12 terms of the progression.
If x + 1, x - 5, and x - 2 are in a geometric progression, then there is some constant r for which
x - 5 = r (x + 1)
==> r = (x - 5) / (x + 1)
and
x - 2 = r (x - 5)
==> r = (x - 2) / (x - 5)
Then
(x - 5) / (x + 1) = (x - 2) / (x - 5)
Solve for x :
(x - 5)² = (x - 2) (x + 1)
x ² - 10x + 25 = x ² - x - 2
-9x = -27
x = 3
It follows that the ratio between terms is
r = (3 - 5) / (3 + 1) = -2/4 = -1/2
Now, assuming x + 1 = 4 is the first term of the G.P., the n-th term a(n) is given by
a(n) = 4 (-1/2)ⁿ⁻¹
The sum of the first 12 terms - denoted here by S - is then
S = 4 (-1/2)⁰ + 4 (-1/2)¹ + 4 (-1/2)² + … + 4 (-1/2)¹¹
Solve for S :
S = 4 [(-1/2)⁰ + (-1/2)¹ + (-1/2)² + … + (-1/2)¹¹]
(-1/2) S = 4 [(-1/2)¹ + (-1/2)² + (-1/2)³ + … + (-1/2)¹²]
==> S - (-1/2) S = 4 [(-1/2)⁰ - (-1/2)¹²]
==> 3/2 S = 4 (1 - 1/4096)
==> S = 8/3 (1 - 1/4096)
==> S = 1365/512
There is a close relationship between the air pressure inside a hurricane and its maximum sustained wind speed: y=−1.22x+1250 where x is the air pressure in millibars (kPa) and y is the wind speed in knots (nautical miles per hour).
What does the slope of the line represent?
A. the change in wind speed for every 1 kPa increase in air pressure
B. the wind speed of a hurricane with an air pressure of 1000 kPa
C. the wind speed of a hurricane with an air pressure of 0 kPa
D. the change in wind speed for every hour
Answer:
A. the change in wind speed for every 1 kPa increase in air pressure
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line is given by:
y = mx + b;
where y, x are variables, m is the slope (rate of change) of the line and b is the y intercept (value of y when x = 0)
Given the line y=−1.22x+1250 where x is the air pressure in millibars (kPa) and y is the wind speed in knots.
The slope of the line is -1.22. The slope means that there is a decrease in wind speed by 1.22 miles per hour for every increase of 1 kPa in air pressure.

9514 1404 393
Answer:
B. x + y < 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations can be cleared of fractions by multiplying by 15.
15(2/3(x +1) -4/5y) = 15(1/3)
10(x +1) -12y = 5
10x -12y = -5
and
15(2/5x +1/3(2y +1)) = 15(1/5)
6x +5(2y +1) = 3
6x +10y = -2
3x +5y = -1 . . . . . eliminate common factor of 2

You can find the solutions any way you like, but you can answer the question without doing that. The lines are not parallel, nor coincident, so there is exactly one solution. (choices C and D are incorrect)
If we can locate the solution relative to the line x + y = 0, we can tell if choice A or choice B is correct. A quick look at the intercepts of the equations tells us the solution cannot lie in quadrants 1 or 4. The negative y-intercept and shallow slope (-3/5) of the second equation tells us the solution must lie below the line x + y = 0. That means x+y < 0, choice B.
_____
In the attached graph, the line x+y=0 is dashed orange. Above that line, x+y>0; below that line, x+y<0. We see the intersection point of the red and blue lines is in the region where x+y < 0.
For standard form equation ax+by = c, the x- and y-intercepts are c/a and c/b, respectively, so are easy to find from that form. Knowing these makes it easy to make a sketch of the graph, locating the solution point relative to the line x+y = 0.

12,963 rounded to the nearest hundredth
9514 1404 393
Answer:
12,963.00 (in the US)12,96 (some other places)Step-by-step explanation:
In the US, a decimal point is represented by a period. This value is interpreted as an integer with no fractional part, so the fractional part is zero:
12,963.00
__
Some other places, a comma is used to identify the beginning of the decimal fraction. In that form, this number has a fractional part that has 3 as its thousandths digit. The value of 3 is less than 5, so the number is simply truncated at the hundredths place.
12,96
If the thousandths digit were 5 or greater, then 1 hundredth would be added to the truncated number.
Yogi is 6 years older than Michelle. The sum of their ages is 26. Write a system of linear equations to represent this information. What are their ages?
Answer:
10 and 16, x+(x+6)=26
Step-by-step explanation:
Michelle has an age we don't know, so we put her age as x.
Yogi is 6 years older than her, so her age is x+6
Michelle=x
Yogi=x+6
we know both their ages equal 26. so we set it up as
x+(x+6)=26
combining like terms we get
2x+6=26
subtract 6 from both sides
2x=20
divide both sides by 2
x=10
now that we have the value for x, we plug it into their original ages
Michelle is 10, because her age is just x.
Yogi is 16, because her age is x+6
When a closed curve is parameterized by {x[t], y[t]}, then as you advance along the curve in the direction of the parameterization, which way do the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point; in the direction you are going, or in the direction opposite to the direction you are going?
Answer:
In the direction you are going,
Explanation:
We know that the tangent to {x[t], y[t]} are {x'[t], y'[t]}. Since {x'[t], y'[t]} are tangents at {x[t], y[t]}, we know that the tangent at a point is always parallel to the direction of the function at that point and in the direction of the function. So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in my direction of motion as I move along the curve.
So, the tangent vectors {x'[t], y'[t]} at {x[t], y[t]} point in the direction you are going.
