Commission = 6% of sales

" 6% " means  0.06
" of " means "times"

Commission = (0.06) x (sales)

    $300  =  (0.06) x (sales)

Divide each side by  0.06 :   $300 / 0.06  =  sales

                                             <em>  $5,000  =  sales </em>

1. A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation? meters 2. A sea bird is 28 meters above the surfac
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

- 12 meters

28 meters

40 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?

Position of fish = 12 meters below the surface = - 12 ;

Sea level = 0

Elevation = sea level + position

Elevation = 0 + (- 12)

= - 12 meters

2. A sea bird is 28 meters above the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?

Position of bird = 28 meters below the surface = (28) ;

Sea level = 0

Elevation = sea level + position

Elevation = 0 + 28

= 28 meters

3. If the bird is directly above the fish, how far apart are they?

If bird is directly above the fish;

Distance between bird and fish :

Elevation of bird - elevation of fish

28 - (-12)

28 + 12

= 40 Meters
