Answer:

The percent change in salary from one job to the next is 88.57%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The previous salary of per hour = $8.75 per hour

The current salary of per hour = $16.50 per hour

Change in the salary rate per hour = Current salary - Previous Salary

= $16.50 per hour - $8.75 per hour

=$7.75 per hour

⇒The change in the salary per hour rate is $7.75

Now, $\textrm{Percentage Change in salary} = \frac{\textrm{Change in the rate of salary}}{\textrm{Previous Salary}} \times 100$

= $\frac{7.75}{8.75} \times 100 = 88.57$

or, the change in salary percentage is 88.57%

Hence, the percent change in salary from one job to the next is 88.57%.

Find the value of the variable y, where the sum of the fractions 6/(y+1) and y/(y-2) is equal to their product.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The answer is

$y = 3$

$y = - 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We must find a solution where

$\frac{6}{y + 1} + \frac{y}{y - 2} = \frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y}{y - 2}$

Consider the Left Side:

First, to add fraction multiply each fraction on the left by it corresponding denomiator and we should get

$\frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y - 2}{y - 2} + \frac{y}{y - 2} \times \frac{y + 1}{y + 1}$

Which equals

$\frac{6y - 12}{(y -2) (y + 1)} + \frac{ {y}^{2} + y }{(y - 2)(y + 1)}$

Add the fractions

$\frac{y {}^{2} + 7y - 12 }{(y - 2)(y + 1)} = \frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y}{y - 2}$

Simplify the right side by multiplying the fraction

$\frac{6y}{(y + 1)(y + 2)}$

Set both fractions equal to each other

$\frac{6y}{(y + 1)(y - 2)} = \frac{ {y}^{2} + 7y - 12}{(y + 1)(y - 2)}$

Since the denomiator are equal, we must set the numerator equal to each other

$6y = {y}^{2} + 7y - 12$

$= {y}^{2} + y - 12$

$(y + 4)(y - 3)$

$y = - 4$

$y = 3$

when Apple sells their iPads they increase the price $50 from what it cost then to actually make the iPads one Apple Store sold

Anvisha [2.4K]

First things you have to do is figure out how much they increased the iPads by:

$50 • 10 = $500

They increased the iPad price by $500.

Subtract the total amount from the iPad price:

$5,000 - $500 = $4,500

The actual price of 10 iPads, without an increase is $4,500

Now divide that by 10 to get the amount for one iPad:

$4,500 ÷ 10 = $450

One iPad actually costs $450 to make.
