According to my calculations the 30% of 570 is 171
10% of 570 is 57
times that by 3 and you get 171
We know that the amounts earned by Dawn, Doug and Dale are from the list of numbers: $9.35, $8.52 and $8.25
We also know that Dale and Doug earned close to $9.00
And that Dawn earned $1.10 less than Dale
Let the amount earned by Dale be x
⇒ Amount earned by Dawn is x - 1.1
If we notice the list of numbers, we see that $9.35 and $8.25 differ by $1.1
Hence, Dale earned $9.35 and Dawn earned $8.25
We are now left with $8.52, which should be the amount earned by Doug. This is correct, since we also know that Doug earned close to $9.
Hence, the amounts earned are:
Dale: $9.35
Doug: $8.52
Dawn: $8.25
Answer:
y = 3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for two points on a line is generated from the straight line equation y = mx + b ---------------- eqn (i)
where m, the slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
therefore for (0,2) and (1,5) m = (5 - 2)/(1 - 0) = 3
This implies that eqn (i) can be rewritten as:
y = 3x + b ------------------- eqn (ii)
pickintg the point (0,2) and substituting into eqn (ii)
2 = 3(0) + b
this implies that b = 2
for confirmation with (1,5)
5 = 3(1) + b
b = 5 - 3 = 2
hence m = 3, b = 2
the equation is y = 3x + 2
There is a formula for the area of a parallelogram which is bxh
(base x height)
Remember the height is always straight so do not use the 12 value.
21x9=189
Hope this helped!
