<span>lets assume number of iphones sold = a
number of ipads sold = b
i sold 4 iphones more than ipad that becomes
a = b+4
then the equation of total commission becomes
30a+20b = 520
substituting a =b+4 in the above equation
30(b+4)+20b = 520
30b+120+20b = 520
50b =520-120
50b = 400
b = 400/50
b=8
number of iphones i sold = a = b+4 = 8+4 = 12
number of ipads i sold = 8
so i sold 12 iphones and 8 ipads to earn the commission of $520</span>
5136/8 is equal to 642.
You can use a calculator if you'd like.
Answer:
x=75
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.
42 50
------ = ----------
42+63 50+x
42 50
------ = ----------
105 50+x
Using cross products
42(50+x) = 50*(105)
2100+42x = 5250
Subtract 2100 from each side
2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100
42x =3150
Divide by 42
42x/42 = 3150/42
x = 75
Answer:
JL = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
The shorter segment is a midline, so is half the length of the longer one.
2(5x-16) = 4x +34
5x -16 = 2x +17 . . . . . divide by 2
3x = 33 . . . . . . . . . . add 16-2x
x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then segment JL is ...
JL = 4x +34 = 4(11) +34 = 44+34
JL = 78
