Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.

<h3>What is PERCENTAGE?</h3>

A percentage is a number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100. If we have to calculate percent of a number, divide the number by the whole and multiply by 100.

Here, Billy's initial salary = $ 42,500

After raise, salary become $ 45,000

Change in salary = Raised salary - Initial salary

                            = 45000 - 42500

                            = $ 2500

% Change = change / initial salary  X 100

                  = 2500 / 42500 X 100

                  = 0.0589 X 100

                  ≈ 5.9 %

Thus, Billy get 5.9% raise after completing first year.

Look at the picture. What is the solution WORTH 10 POINTS
Ivanshal [37]

The coordinates of the point intersection of lines (-1, -1)

If you want solve:

y = -2x - 3, y = 3x + 2

-2x - 3 = 3x + 2     |+3

-2x = 3x + 5     |-3x

-5x = 5     |:(-5)

x = -1

Put the value of x to the first equation:

y = (-2)(-1) - 3 = 2 - 3 = -1

x = -1, y = -1

How would I use factoring to write equivalent expressions for the following expressions?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

4(a + 6)

3(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factoring is just rewriting an expression into the parts that multiply together to make the original...like if I had a 100 but decided instead to write 4×25 or if I had 25x I wrote 5(5x) .

If you look at your

4a + 24

You're looking for whatever is the same in both pieces (the 4a and also the 24) So there is a 4 in 4a and there is also a 4 "in" 24 (as in 4×6 is 24)

So if you pull out that 4 and throw it up front, whatever is left behind goes into a pair of parentheses.

4 (____ + ____)

4(a + 6)

This is your factored form bc if you multiply that 4 back in you'll get the original expression back again.

4a + 24

= 4(a + 6)

It's like factoring is "un-distributive" property.

Theres a 3 in 3x and also in 12

3x - 12

= 3(x - 4)
