Answer:
x = 9, y = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
12(x - 1) = 96 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x - 1 = 8 ( add 1 to both sides )
x = 9
Also
=
( cross- multiply )
12(y + 1) = 336 ( divide both sides by 12 )
y + 1 = 28 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
y = 27
Answer:
b = (c - 3a)/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3a + 4b = c
4b = c - 3a
b = (c - 3a)/4

the idea being, you multiply the "x" by some power of 10 that moves the repeating part to the left of the decimal point and the split it like above.
6n=$8.34, 8.34/6= 1.39 N=1.39
Let x = amount of sales (in dollars)
The salary is $400 and there's an additional 0.06x dollars added on to get to the goal of 790. The equation is therefore
<span>400+0.06x = 790
</span>
Let's solve for x
400+0.06x = 790
<span>400+0.06x-400 = 790-400
</span>0.06x = 390
0.06x/0.06 = 390/0.06
x = 6500
The final answer is 6500
This means he must have $6,500 in sales.
