Answer: The car has to sell for $20000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price that the car would have to sell for in order for these two job opportunities to pay Jim the same amount.

Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be

10/100 × x = 0.1x

Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week plus a 7.5% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be

500 + 0.075x

For boths pays to be the same, it means that

0.1x = 500 + 0.075x

0.1x - 0.075x = 500

0.025x = 500

x = 500/0.025

x = 20000

The car has to sell for $20000

PLEASE HURRY WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

fiasKO [112]

The answer would be (8pi +12) in^2
This is because to solve for the semicircle the equation is:
1/2*pi*r^2 1/2*pi*16
And the equation for the triangle is:
1/2*hb*h 1/2*8*3

In one jar, I have two balls labelled 1 and 2 respectively. In a second jar, I have three balls labelled 0, 1 and 2 respectively

PolarNik [594]

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a kind of trick question, actually.

with whatever we draw, we produce X values as power of 3.

to be precise, we can have only

3⁰ = 1

3¹ = 3

3² = 9

3⁴ = 81

due to the possible combinations of drawn numbers (e.g. 3 cannot be created by a multiplication of 0s, 1s and 2s).

so, mostly, these results cannot be exact factors of 1024.

1024 cannot be divided by 3, nor by 9 nor by 81.

but 1024 is a multiple of 1 (as is every number).

so, we are looking at the probability to get 0 as multiplication result of the numbers on the 2 drawn balls.

the only possibilities are

1 and 0

2 and 0

out of in total 6 (2×3) different outcomes

1 and 0

1 and 1

1 and 2

2 and 0

2 and 1

2 and 2

the probability of this "0" event is again

number of desired outcomes / number of possible outcomes = 2/6 = 1/3

Compare the fraction 1:24,000 to the fraction 1:3,168,000; which is the largest rational number

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{24,000}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

When we compare positive fractions with the same numerator, the largest rational number will be the fraction with the lowest denominator

In this problem we have

$\frac{1}{24,000}$ and $\frac{1}{3,168,000}$

Both numerator are equal

Compare the denominators

$24,000 < 3,168,000$

therefore

$\frac{1}{24,000}$ is the largest rational number
