Question 148524: I Don't want the answer I just need help getting started (setting up equation) and understanding a little more about the actual subject itself (proportion equations). If it's too much I understand.
1. A lawyer bills her clients $200 per hour of service. If a client's case requires 39 hours to complete, use proportion to calculate how much the client will owe the lawyer (excluding tax).
2. A new virus is released on the internet; the administrator of a department's Local Area Network ( LAN) is given five minutes by a manager to estimate the impact. The administrator samples 15 of the PCs connected to the LAN, and finds that 9 are infected; use proportion to estimate the number of infected PCs if there are a total of 202 PCs connected to the LAN.
3. An administrator of a popular web site is told that a new server can handle 41,000 "hits" (users accessing the site) per second. The web site currently experiences a peak demand of about 105,000 hits per second; but every month, the peak demand increases by 2800 hits per second. Use a proportion equation to determine how many new servers the administrator should buy to address expected traffic for the next 24 months.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. where x is the amount of money for 39 hours
2. where x is the amount of infected PC's
3. where is x is the amount of servers needed for the next 24 months
