Time taken to drive to her grandparents house = 6 5/6  hours

We convert this mixed into improper fraction, we get = 41/6 hours

Time taken to drive to her grandparents house = 41/6 hours

Time taken to drive back = 8 2/9 hours

We convert this mixed into improper fraction, we get = 74/9 hours

Time taken to drive back = 74/9 hours

Difference between the two = 74/9 - 41/6  = (148-123)/18 = 25/18 hours = 1 7/18 hours

Therefore it took 1 7/18 hours longer to drive back.

Simplify . (1/c + 1/h)/(1/(c ^ 2) - 1/(r ^ 2))
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

\frac{\left(h+c\right)cr^2}{h\left(r^2-c^2\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{\frac{1}{c}+\frac{1}{h}}{\frac{1}{c^2}-\frac{1}{r^2}}

Combine \frac{1}{c} + \frac{1}{h}

\frac{\frac{h+c}{ch}}{\frac{1}{c^2}-\frac{1}{r^2}}

Combine the bottom, too.

=\frac{\frac{h+c}{ch}}{\frac{r^2-c^2}{c^2r^2}}

Apply the fraction rule

=\frac{\left(h+c\right)c^2r^2}{ch\left(r^2-c^2\right)}

Cancel

=\frac{\left(h+c\right)cr^2}{h\left(r^2-c^2\right)}

Therefore, \frac{\left(\frac{1}{c}+\frac{1}{h}\right)}{\left(\frac{1}{\left(c^2\right)}-\frac{1}{\left(r^2\right)}\right)}:\quad \frac{\left(h+c\right)cr^2}{h\left(r^2-c^2\right)}

A salesperson is paid an 8.25% commission on sales when the invoice is
son4ous [18]

Answer:

<em>The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

Let's call x to the sales volume, not including commission.

The salesperson is paid an 8.25% commission on sales, thus the total invoice is x + 8.25%x = x + 0.0825x = 1.0825x

We are given this total invoice, thus:

1.0825x = $49,900

Dividing by 1.0825:

x = $46,097

The salesperson's commission is

0.0825*$46,097=$3,803

The salesperson's commission for this month is $3,803
