A percentage is just a fancy version of a percentage, a percentage is always out of 100 remember, so 24% would be equal to 24/100
we aren't done because we have to simplify
24/100, divide both sides by 2
12/50
again divide by 2
6/25
you can not simplify anymore so we can conclude that the US uses 6/25 of the world's energy

Alexandria,a car dealer,earns 40% commission of her luxury vehicles sales. Last year,her sales were $480,000. What was the total
Oxana [17]

Answer:

$12,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find her commission, create a proportion.

\frac{40}{100}=\frac{480000}{x}

To solve use cross multiplication.

40(x) = 100(480000)

40x = 48000000

x= 12,000,000

X+y=5<br> x×y=6<br> Solve simultaneously with steps
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

(3, 2), (2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 5

xy = 6

Solve the first equation for x.

x = 5 - y

Substitute 5 - y for x in the second equation.

xy = 6

(5 - y)y = 6

5y - y² = 6

y² - 5y + 6 = 0

Factor.

(y - 2)(y - 3) = 0

y - 2 = 0  or y - 3 = 0

y = 2  or y = 3

Now substitute 2 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 2 = 5

x = 3

One solution is x = 3; y = 2, or (3, 2).

Now substitute 3 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 3 = 5

x = 2

Another solution is x = 2; y = 3, or (3, 2).

Answer: (3, 2), (2, 3)
