Answer:

The answer is c. $4668.30

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We know the salesperson sold 14% of the total $513000.00. To get the actual number he sold, we need to multiply 14 times 513000 and divide by 100.

  • Salesperson sales = 14*513000/100 = 71820

2) We also know the salesperson makes 6.5% commission on his sales. We know he sold 71820, his commission is:

  • Commission = 6.5*71820/100 = 4668.30

If you want to know what is the percentage of any given quantity, you need to multiply that percentage times the quantity and divide by 100.

Twice a number (z) added to 21 is equal to 9 times the number added to 7. What is the number?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The number is  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number (z) = 2*z = 2z

Twice a number (z) added to 21  = 2z + 21

9 times the number added to 7 = 9z + 7

9z + 7 = 2z + 21

Subtract 2z form both sides

9z - 2z + 7 = 21

       7z + 7 = 21

Subtract 7 from both sides

7z = 21 - 7

 7z = 14

Divide both sides by 7

z = 14/7

z = 2
