Answer:
13 over 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi Jakeyriabryant! I hope you’re fine!
I hope I have understood the problem well.
If so, what the exercise raises is the following equality:
(x-1) / 5 = 2/3
From this equation you must clear the "x".
First, we pass the 5 that is dividing on the side of the x, to the other side and passes multiplying
(X – 1) / 5 = 2/3
(X – 1) = (2/3)*5
X – 1 = 10/3
Then we pass the one that is subtracting from the side of the x, to the other side and passes adding
X = 10/3 + 1
Remember that to add or subtract fractions they must have the same denominator or a common denominator (in this case we can write 1 as fraction 3/3). Then,
X = 10/3 + 3/3
X = 13/3
I hope I've been helpful!

The correct answer is -b+12
Answer:
$20,000
Step-by-step explanation:
You can quickly figure this by recognizing that the difference in commission must be the same as the base salary:
2.5%(car price) = $500
car price = $500/0.025 = $20,000
__
If you prefer, you can get there with equations.
At Job 1, the pay is ...
y = 10%×(car price)
At Job 2, the pay is ...
y = 7.5%×(car price)
Setting the equal (the two opportunities pay the same), we have ...
0.10(car price) = 500 +0.075(car price)
0.025(car price) = 500 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.075(car price)
car price = 500/0.025 = 20,000 . . . . divide by 0.025
Jim would have to sell a $20,000 car each week for the jobs to pay the same.
