First step of the equation is to simplify the equation 2a • b = a2 + b2 into 2 ab = a2 + b2. This cannot be factored anymore although. when we try to substitute a with 5 and b with 2, the answer in the right hand side of the equation is -9. hence the answer to this problem is false. we can try another values to verify.
X = total sales
y = sharon's commision earnings
Since Sharon makes 4% of the total sales, we want to calculate how many sales equate to a $150 return. Since 4% = .04, the solution would be :
y = .04 x
150 = .04 x
150/.04 = x
3750 = x
The answer is -88
When you multiply and then divide
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Get the perimeter of the each shape and add it all up to get the total fencing material required.
2 square flower beds = 2 x 4a = 8a
1 rectangular play ground = 2l + 2w
total fencing material = 8a + 2l + 2w
