Answer: Mary makes $1160, Steven makes $142.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Facts
MARY
8% commision on everything she sells
She sells a car for $14,500
The first question about Mary asks how much commision she makes. To find that, lets find 8% of 14,500
8% of 14,500= 0.08x14,500= 1160
Therefore, Mary makes $1,160 in commision.
STEVEN
Facts
He makes 15% in commision for the supplies he sells
He sells $950 in supplies
Money made =?
15% of 950=0.15x950=$142.50
Answer:
y = 3x - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines will have a opposite reciprocal slope, so the slope will be 3.
Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, then solve for b:
y = mx + b
4 = 3(6) + b
4 = 18 + b
-14 = b
Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b
y = 3x - 14
So, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 14
7 hours is 28 quarter hours. 50 is closer to 45 than 00 so it is. 75 hours. total is 28.75

Answer:
Two buses leave towns 760 mi apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One bus travels
18 mi/h slower than the other. If they meet in
5 hours, what is the rate of each bus?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let x be the rate of the slower bus, in miles per hour.
Then the rate of the faster bus is (x+18) mph, according to the condition.
The slower bus covered 5x miles before the buses meet each other.
The faster bus covered 5*(x+18) miles before they meet each other.
The sum of distances covered by buses is 3x + 5*(x+18).
It is equal exactly 760 miles. It gives you an equation
5x + 5(x+18) = 760.
Simplify and solve for x:
5x + 5x + 90 = 760,
10x = 760 - 90,
10x = 670 ====> x = 670%2F10 = 67.
Thus you found the rate of the slower bus. It is 67 miles per hour.
Then the rate of the faster bus is 67 + 18 = 85 mph.
Solved.
