olya-2409 [2.1K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

$19,153.26.

Explanation:

She will receive 42% of her average annual salary. This salary was $45,603.

To find 42% of a number, we first convert the percent to a decimal: 42% = 42/100 = 0.42.

Next we multiply this by the number we're taking the percent of:

0.42(45603) = 19153.26.

(d) A car travels at an average speed of 80 km/h. How far does it travel in: (1) 2 hours? (11) 12 minutes?​
zepelin [54]
Answer is (1) 160 km in 2 hours and
(2) 16 miles in 12 minutes.

Step by step.
80 km / 1 hour = x km /2 hours
Cross multiply =
x = 160

The second one requires a little more math. Because we are looking at how far in minutes, we change the rate of 80km in 1 hour to 80 km in 60 minutes.
80 km / 60 = x / 12
Cross multiply
12x = 960
Solve for x by dividing both sides by 12
X = 16

I did the math on a print screen to explain the cross multiply.
