There are two ways to calculate his new pay. Choose whichever is easier for you.

OPTION 1:
multiply current pay by 20%, then add the result to the current pay

Step 1:
multiply pay by 20% increase
=$455 * 20%
=$91 increase

Step 2:
add pay increase from step 1 to current pay rate

=$455 + $91
=$546 new weekly rate


OPTION 2:
multiply current pay by (1 + 20%)

=($455)(1 + 20%)
=(455)(1.20)
=$546 new weekly rate


ANSWER: His new weekly rate is $546 per week.

Hope this helps! :)

The cost of 3 notebooks and 2 pencils is $5.10. At the same prices, the cost of 2 notebooks and 3 pencils is $4.65. What is the
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$1.95

Step-by-step explanation:

notebook = n

pencil = p

3n + 2p = 5.10

2n + 3p = 4.65

multiply top equation by 2 and bottom by 3

6n + 4p = 10.20

6n +9p = 13.95

subtract bottom equation from the top equation

-5p = -3.75

divide by 5, negatives cancel out

p  = 0.75

sub p into either equation, I chose the original top equation

3n + 2(0.75) = 5.10

3n + 1.50 = 5.10

subtract 1.50 from both sides

3n = 3.60

divide both sides by 3

n = 1.20

p = 0.75

n + p = 1.95 (the fourth option)

PLEASE HELP ;)<br> Who did it right?<br><br> Find the slope of the line perpendicular to 2x+3y=8
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Marissa.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find perpendicular slope you basically take the slope of the given line and reverse whatever sign it had previously. (If it was negative, it would become positive. If it was positive it would become negative.)

By doing -A/B it make the previous slope negative.

Brandon only flipped the fraction which would just result in the slope being slightly steeper, or in this case, less steep than the previous line, rather than making it perpendicular.

Hope this helps! Stay safe and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
