An insurance salesman earns a base pay of $31,700 per year and a commission of 17% of all sales made. if he sold $29,600 worth of products last year, what were his total earnings last year?

His total earnings last year is: $ 36,732

It is given that:

An insurance salesman earns a base pay of $31,700 per year and a commission of 17% of all sales made.

If he sold $29,600 worth of products last year.

This means that the commission on the sales will be:

    17% of 29,600

= 0.17 of 29,600

= 0.17×29,600

= $ 5,032

Hence, the total earnings he made last year= Base pay+Commission on sales made.

i.e.

Total earning= 31,700+5,032

i.e.

                     Total earning= $ 36,732

step-by-step explanation:

i think you should think about the question and not look online.

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
