Answer:

A. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales item = x

Regular items = y

X = y+ 11

Y = x-11

x(61.96-(61.96)(0.2)) +y(43.3-(43.3)(0.1)) = 97.66

49.568x + 38.97y= 97.66

49.568x + 38.97(x-11) = 97.66

88.538x= 526.33

X = 5.9

5.9+11= 16.9

Approximately 18

An employee earns $200 for 14 hours work. Assuming he is paid by the hour, how much will this employee earn in 35 hours?
bezimeni [28]
If an employee earns 200 dollars for 14 hours work, that means this person gets approximately 14 dollars and 29 cents per every hour.

Thus, in 35 hours, you can multiply 14.29 by 35 to get about 500 dollars.

In 35 hours, the employee will earn 500 dollars.

A jar contains 2 orange balls, 5 black balls, and 3 pink balls.
Levart [38]
The probability of Event A is 5/10 which simplifies to 1/2.

The probability of Event B is 3/9 which simplifies to 1/3.

Because it says "and" we need to multiply them which gives us 1/2*1/3=1/6
