for this case we must write a proportion that shows the earnings obtained from Mrs. Miller for the sale of the house.

By making a rule of three we have:

179000 ------------> 100%

x -----------------------> 6%

Where "x" represents the gains obtained.

So:

x = \frac {6 * 179000} {100}

Writing the proportion:

\frac {x} {179000} = \frac {6} {100}

The earns were:

x = 10740

ANswer:

\frac {x} {179000} = \frac {6} {100}\\x = 10740

Answer:

$10,740

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that Mrs. Miller sells a house for $179,000. Then the cost of the house will be the 100%.

Knowing that she earns 6% of comission, you can set up the following proportion (Let be "x" the amount of money she earns), then:

\frac{\$179,000}{100}=\frac{x}{6}

Now you need to solve for "x". Therefore, you get:

 (6)(\frac{\$179,000}{100})=x

 x=\$10,740

aleksley [76]

We will have the following:

Using exponential regression we will have that the line of best fit will be:

f\mleft(x\mright)=8585.658603*1.399211892^x

Now, we will have that:

\begin{gathered} 300000=8585.658603*1.399211892^x\Rightarrow34.94199034=1.399211892^x \\  \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{ln(34.94199034)}{1.399211892}\Rightarrow x= \end{gathered}

So, the approximation using linear regression gives us as solution approximately 29.7 years; thus the closest one to match is then

Use completing the aquare to solve for x in the equation (x+7)(x-9)=25​
Tema [17]

Answer:

x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x = 1 - sqrt(89)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(x - 9) (x + 7) = 25

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

x^2 - 2 x - 63 = 25

Add 63 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x = 88

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x + 1 = 89

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 1)^2 = 89

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 1 = sqrt(89) or x - 1 = -sqrt(89)

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x - 1 = -sqrt(89)

Add 1 to both sides:

Answer: x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x = 1 - sqrt(89)
