Answer:

 Unemployment (August) = 35'222/634'512 ≈ 0.0555 ≈ 5.55%

Employed (August) = 634'512-35'222 = 599'290

Labor force (September) = 634'512-156'518 = 477'994

Employed (September) = 599'290-206'024 = 393'266

Unemployed (September) = 477'994-393'266 = 84'728

Unemployment (September) = 84'728/477'994 ≈ 0.177 ≈ 17.7%

Get-down electronics buys mp3 players with an invoice date of june 29, and terms of sale of 4/20 eom. Calculate the discount dat
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

August 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The problem says that the invoice date is June 29 and terms of sale of \frac{4}{20} EOM. This means that if the payment is made 20 days from the end of the month, a percent of 4% may be taken as cash discount.

2. If the number of days in that month is greater than 25, you must add another month. Therefore, you must add July and 20 days of August.

3. Therefore, the discount date is August 20.

What is the solution to the equation 2/3 x + 1 = 1/6 x -7
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

x = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x + 1 = 1/6 x -7

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6 to eliminate the fraction

6*(2/3 x + 1) =6( 1/6 x -7)

4x +6 = x -42

Subtract x from each side

4x-x +6 = -42

3x +6= - 42

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 = -42-6

3x = -48

3x/3 = -48/3

x = -16
