A retired couple invested $8000 in bonds. At the end of one year, they received an interest paymentA retired couple invested $8000 in bonds. At the end of one year, they received an interest payment of $584. What was the simple interest rate of the bonds?
For simple interest, we have:
Balance * interest rate = Interest payment
8000i = 584
Divide each side of the equation by 8000 to isolate i:
8000i/8000 = 584/8000
Cancelling the 8000's on the left side, we get:
i = 0.073
Most times, interest rates are expressed as a percentage.

A teacher’s salary was $3300 after she had received an increase of 10%. Calculate the teacher’s salaA teacher’s salary was $3300 after she had received an increase of 10%. Calculate the teacher’s salary if she has received an increase of 20% instead.
First, we need to find the starting salary. Let the starting salary be s. Since 10% as a decimal is 0.10, We're given:
s*(1.10) = 3300
1.10s = 3300
To solve for s, [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=1.10s%3D3300&pl=Solve']we type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get:
s = [B]3000[/B]
The problem asks for the new salary if the teacher's starting salary was increased by 20%. 20% as a decimal is 0.20, so we have:
3000(1.2) = $[B]3,600[/B]
A theater is 3/4 full. When 96 people leave, the theater is only 35% full. How many seat are thereA theater is 3/4 full. When 96 people leave, the theater is only 35% full. How many seats are there?
Let the full capacity of seats in the theater be s. We're given:
3/4s - 96 = 0.35s (Since 35% is 0.35)
We also know that 3/4 = 0.75, so let's use this to have decimals:
0.75s - 96 = 0.35s
To solve for s, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=0.75s-96%3D0.35s&pl=Solve']type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get:

A town has a population of 50,000. Its rate increases 8% every 6 months. Find the population after 4A town has a population of 50,000. Its rate increases 8% every 6 months. Find the population after 4 years.
Every 6 months means twice a year. So we have 4 years * twice a year increase = 8 compounding periods.
Our formula for compounding an initial population P at time t is P(t) at a compounding percentage i:
P(t) = P * (1 + i)^t
Since 8% is 0.08 as a decimal and t = 4 *2 = 8, we have:
P(8) = 50000 * (1.08)^8
P(8) = 50000 * 1.85093
P(8) = 92,546.51
Since we can't have a partial person, we round down to [B]92,545[/B]
A TV that usually sells for $192.94 is on sale for 15% off. If sales tax on the TV is 6%, what is thA TV that usually sells for $192.94 is on sale for 15% off. If sales tax on the TV is 6%, what is the price of the TV, including tax?
Find the discounted price: 15% off of 192.94
Discounted Price = 192.94 * (1 - 0.15) <-- 15% as a decimal is 0.15, and 1 is 100%, so we subtract to get 85% of the original price
Discounted Price =192.94(0.85)
Discounted Price = $164
Now, add in the sales tax of 6% to the Discounted Price
Price after sales tax = Discounted Price * 1.06
Price after sales tax = $164 * 1.06
[B]Price after sales tax = $173.84[/B]

Dr. Carlson is contemplating the impact of an antibiotic on a particular patient. The patient will tDr. Carlson is contemplating the impact of an antibiotic on a particular patient. The patient will take 229 milligrams, and every hour his body will break down 20% of it. How much will be left after 9 hours?
Set up the antibiotic remaining function A(h) where h is the number of hours after the patient takes the antibiotic.
If the body breaks down 20%, then the remaining is 100% - 20% = 80%
80% as a decimal is 0.8, so we have:
A(h) = 229 * (0.8)^h
The problems asks for A(9):
A(9) = 229 * (0.8)^9
A(9) = 229 * 0.134217728

Jonathan earns a base salary of $1500 plus 10% of his sales each month. Raymond earns $1200 plus 15%Jonathan earns a base salary of $1500 plus 10% of his sales each month. Raymond earns $1200 plus 15% of his sales each month. How much will Jonathan and Raymond have to sell in order to earn the same amount each month?
[U]Step 1: Set up Jonathan's sales equation S(m) where m is the amount of sales made each month:[/U]
S(m) = Commission percentage * m + Base Salary
10% written as a decimal is 0.1. We want decimals to solve equations easier.
S(m) = 0.1m + 1500
[U]Step 2: Set up Raymond's sales equation S(m) where m is the amount of sales made each month:[/U]
S(m) = Commission percentage * m + Base Salary
15% written as a decimal is 0.15. We want decimals to solve equations easier.
S(m) = 0.15m + 1200
[U]The question asks what is m when both S(m)'s equal each other[/U]:
The phrase [I]earn the same amount [/I]means we set Jonathan's and Raymond's sales equations equal to each other
0.1m + 1500 = 0.15m + 1200
We want to isolate m terms on one side of the equation.
Subtract 1200 from each side:
0.1m + 1500 - 1200 = 0.15m + 1200 - 1200
Cancel the 1200's on the right side and we get:
0.1m - 300 = 0.15m
Next, we subtract 0.1m from each side of the equation to isolate m
0.1m - 0.1m + 300 = 0.15m - 0.1m
Cancel the 0.1m terms on the left side and we get:
300 = 0.05m
Flip the statement since it's an equal sign to get the variable on the left side:
0.05m = 300
To solve for m, we divide each side of the equation by 0.05:

Local salesman receives a base salary of $650 monthly. He also receives a commission of 11% on all sLocal salesman receives a base salary of $650 monthly. He also receives a commission of 11% on all sales over $1500. How much would he have to sell in one month if he needed to have $3000
Let the Sales amount be s. We have:
Sales over 1,500 is written as s - 1500
11% is also 0.11 as a decimal, so we have:
0.11(s - 1500) + 650 = 3000
Multiply through:
0.11s - 165 + 650 = 3500
0.11s + 485 = 3500

Rose weighs 140 pounds and gains 10%. What percent of her new weight must she lose to get back to 14Rose weighs 140 pounds and gains 10%. What percent of her new weight must she lose to get back to 140 pounds?
Find her new weight after the 10% gain:
New Weight = Starting Weight * (1 + 10%)
Since 10% is 0.1, we have:
New Weight = Starting Weight * (1 + 0.1)
New Weight = Starting Weight * (1.1)
Plug in our numbers:
New Weight = 140 * (1.1)
New Weight = 154
To get back to 140, Rose must lose 154 - 140 = 14 pounds.

Shalini gave 0.4 of her plums to her brother and 20% to her sister. She kept 16 for herself. How manShalini gave 0.4 of her plums to her brother and 20% to her sister. She kept 16 for herself. How many plums did she have first?
Let's convert everything to decimals. 20% = 0.2
So Shalini gave 0.4 + 0.2 = 0.6 of the plums away. Which means she has 1 = 0.6 = 0.4 or 40% left over.
40% represents 16 plums
So our equation is 0.4p = 16 where p is the number of plums to start with

The mean age of 10 women in an office is 30 years old. The mean age of 10 men in an office is 29 yeaThe mean age of 10 women in an office is 30 years old. The mean age of 10 men in an office is 29 years old. What is the mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office?
Mean is another word for [U]average[/U].
Mean age of women = Sum of all ages women / number of women
We're told mean age of women is 30, so we have:
Sum of all ages women / 10 = 30
Cross multiply, and we get:
Sum of all ages of women = 30 * 10
Sum of all ages of women = 300
Mean age of men = Sum of all ages men / number of men
We're told mean age of men is 29, so we have:
Sum of all ages men / 10 = 29
Cross multiply, and we get:
Sum of all ages of men = 29 * 10
Sum of all ages of men = 290
[U]Calculate mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office:[/U]
mean age of all the people in the office = Sum of all ages of people in the office (men and women) / Total number of people in the office
mean age of all the people in the office = (300 + 290) / (10 + 10)
mean age of all the people in the office = 590 / 20
mean age of all the people in the office = 29.5
The question asks for nearest year. Since this is a decimal, we round down to either 29 or up to 30.
Because the decimal is greater or equal to 0.5 (halfway), we round [U]up[/U] to [B]30[/B]

There is a bag filled with 5 blue, 6 red and 2 green marbles. A marble is taken at random from the bThere is a bag filled with 5 blue, 6 red and 2 green marbles. A marble is taken at random from the bag, the colour is noted and then it is replaced. Another marble is taken at random. What is the probability of getting exactly 1 blue?
Find the total number of marbles in the bag:
Total marbles = 5 blue + 6 red + 2 green
Total marbles = 13
The problem asks for exactly one blue in 2 draws [I]with replacement[/I]. Which means you could draw as follows:
Blue, Not Blue
Not Blue, Blue
The probability of drawing a blue is 5/13, since we replace the marbles in the bag each time.
The probability of not drawing a blue is (6 + 2)/13 = 8/13
And since each of the 2 draws are independent of each other, we multiply the probability of each draw:
Blue, Not Blue = 5/13 * 8/13 =40/169
Not Blue, Blue = 8/13 * 5/13 = 40/169
We add both probabilities since they both count under our scenario:
40/169 + 40/169 = 80/169

There is a sales tax of $15 on an item that costs $153 before tax. A second item costs $81.60 beforeThere is a sales tax of $15 on an item that costs $153 before tax. A second item costs $81.60 before tax. What is the sales tax on the second item?
We assume the goods are bought in the same store, so tax rates are the same:
Tax Rate = Tax Amount / Cost before tax
Tax Rate = 15/153
Tax Rate = 0.098 or 9.8%
Calculate sales tax on the second item
Sales Tax = Cost before Tax * Tax Rate
Sales Tax = 81.60 * 0.098
Sales Tax = 7.9968
We round to 2 decimals for dollars and cents and we get:
Sales Tax = [B]$8.00[/B]
There is a sales tax of $5 on an item that costs $51 before tax. A second item costs $173.40 beforeThere is a sales tax of $5 on an item that costs $51 before tax. A second item costs $173.40 before tax. What is the sales tax on the second item?
Calculate the sales tax percent using the first item:
Sales Tax Decimal = 100% * Sales Tax / Pre-Tax Bill
Sales Tax Decimal = 100% * 5/51
Sales Tax Decimal = 0.098
Calculate the sales tax on the second item:
Sales Tax = Pre-Tax bill * (1 + Sales Tax)
Sales Tax = $173.40 (1 + 0.098)
Sales Taax = $173.40 * 1.098
Sales Tax = [B]$190.39[/B]

True or False (a) The normal distribution curve is always symmetric to its mean. (b) If the varianceTrue or False
(a) The normal distribution curve is always symmetric to its mean.
(b) If the variance from a data set is zero, then all the observations in this data set are identical.
(c) P(A AND Ac)=1, where Ac is the complement of A.
(d) In a hypothesis testing, if the p-value is less than the significance level α, we do not have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.
(e) The volume of milk in a jug of milk is 128 oz. The value 128 is from a discrete data set.
[B](a) True, it's a bell curve symmetric about the mean
(b) True, variance measures how far a set of numbers is spread out. A variance of zero indicates that all the values are identical
(c) True. P(A) is the probability of an event and P(Ac) is the complement of the event, or any event that is not A. So either A happens or it does not. It covers all possible events in a sample space.
(d) False, we have sufficient evidence to reject H0.
(e) False. Volume can be a decimal or fractional. There are multiple values between 127 and 128. So it's continuous.[/B]

What is the value of 998^2 – 2^2?A) 988,036
B) 990,000
C) 995,988
D) 996,000
E) 1,000,000
This is a difference of squares.
The formula for 2 numbers a and b is:
a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
In our problem, we have a = 998 and b = 2:
998^2 – 2^2 = (998 + 2)(998 - 2)
998^2 – 2^2 = 1000(996)
Multiplying by 1000 means we move the decimal place of the other number 3 places to the right:
998^2 – 2^2 = [B]996,000 or Answer D
