To answer this question, start by identifying the total amount of income after 5 years for the first contract.
Since you start with 15,000 and get 1000 more each year, write an expression that represents this relationship.
15000 + 1000(5)
Multiply the parenthesis to begin to simplify your expression.
This leaves you with:
15000 + 5000
Add to find the total salary after five years with the first contract.
This ends up with:
$20,000
For the second contract, you have a diffferent rate of increase. Start by finding what one percent of the initial salary is. To do this, divide 14000 by 100.
14000/100 = 140
Then to find ten percent, multiply that number by 10.
140 x 10 =1400
So, each year you add 1400 dollars to the salary.
Now, using this information, set up an expression to model the salary for contract 2 after 5 years.
This should leave you with:
14000 + 1400(5)
Begin to simplify by multiplying what’s in the parenthesis.
1400 x 5 = 7000
Now rewrite your expression:
14000 + 7000
Add to find the total salary after 5 years with contract 2.
14000 + 7000 = 21000
So the salary with contract 2 is $21,000.
So, since $21000 is $1000 more than just $20000, contract 2 is the better option. I hope this helps! :)
The first and second ones
Answer:
0.27 repeating.
Step-by-step explanation:
So to solve this we just have to use division.
1 clearly doesnt go into 3 at least one time, so we can add a decimal point and add a 0 to make it 30.
11 goes into 30 2 times, so we have:
0.2
and 30-22=8
So we can add another 0 and make it 80.
Then 11 goes into 80 7 times. So we have:
0.27
and 80-77=3
So again, add the 0, we have 30.
11 goes into 30 2 times, so:
0.272
and 30-22=8
Add another 0 we get 80.
11 goes into 80 7 times.
So finally, we have:
0.2727.
This is a repeating decimal.
This can be shown as:
0.<u>27</u>
So this is your answer!
I was a bit confused with which one it was on your answer key, but knowing that it is 0.<u>27</u> I am guessing you can chose!
Hope this helps!
