Answer:
His sales that week were $2,160.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to subtract $324 from the amount he earned that week, to find the 5% he got from sales:
$432-$324=$108
Now, you know that he received $108 that represent 5% of his sales and you can use a rule of three to find the amount that represents 100% which would be his sales that week:
5% → 108
100% → x
x=(100*108)/5=2160
According to this, the answer is that his sales that week were $2,160.
4 less than five times a number is -11:
5x - 4 = -11
Answer:
who
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) top row: 100 200 300 400 500 600. Bottom row: 5 10 15 20 25 30
2. Each ratio is just the top row divided by the bottom row. So the second thing in the ratio would be 200/10, the third one 300/15, etc. Each ratio is equal to 20.
3.) if x is gallons of gas used, y is distance driven. the equation that describes this relationship is y=20x.
Cross Multiply by 'x - 5'
Hence
y(x - 5) = 4 -3x
xy - 5y = 4 - 3x
Move all the terms containing an 'x' to one side of the equals and all the others to the opposite side.
xy + 3x = 4 + 5y
Factor out 'x'
x(y + 3) = 4 + 5y
'Cross' divide by 'y + 3'
x = ( 4 + 5y) / (y + 3 )
'x' is now the subject.
