Paige only needs to sell to 17 more customers to receive a bonus. She works part time, so she only talks to 50 customers per day. With a sales ratio of 1:9, on which day will Paige qualify for a bonus?

Paige will qualify for a bonus on her 4th day of work.

Step-by-step explanation:

50 customers per day

needs to sell to 17

Ratio = 1:9

      1:9

×17         ×17

    17:153

Paige needs to see 153 customers.

153 ÷ 50 = 3.06 ≈ 4   (As the answer is not asking for the exact number of the day you round up to make a whole day without underestimating)

So, Paige will qualify for a bonus on her 4th day of work.

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

answer:

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this you!
