At a certain real estate firm, realtors selling homes receive a commission of: 7% for the first $100,000 of the selling price, a

scoray [572]

Answer: The actual price of house sold at $109000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Selling price = $100000

Rate of commission = 7%

So, Amount of commission would be

$\dfrac{7}{100}\times 100000\\\\\=\$7000$

Total commission = $7540

So, Remaining amount of commission would be

$\$7540-\$7000\\\\=\$540$

Rate of commission exceeding $100000 = 6%

Let the selling price of house be 'x'.

According to question,

$\dfrac{6}{100}\times x=540\\\\0.06x=540\\\\x=\dfrac{540}{0.06}\\\\x=\$9000$

Hence, the actual price of house sold at

$100000+$9000=$109000.

Can anybody help me with this one?

Answer:

12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule regarding secants and/or tangents is that the product of distances from their common point to the two intersection points with the circle is the same.

For the tangent the "two" intersection points with the circle are the same point, so ...

product of tangent lengths = product of secant lengths

(8 cm)(8 cm) = (4 cm)(4 cm +x)

Dividing by 4 cm gives ...

16 cm = 4 cm + x

12 cm = x

You are buying fruit to make fruit baskets apples come in bags of 20. Ornages come in bags of 16. And bananas come in bags of 32

QveST [7]

Answer:

160 basket of each fruit baskets we can make using all fruit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Oranges comes in bags = 16

Apples comes in bags = 20

bananas come in bags = 32

We need to find the greatest number of fruit baskets that you can make using all fruit.

Also Given:

You have one bag of each fruit basket must be identical.

So we will first find the least common multiple of all the numbers we get;

20 = 20,40,60,80,100,120,140,160

16 = 16,32,48,64,80,96,112,128,144,160

32 = 32,64,96,128,160

The least common multiple is 160.

Hence we can say that, 160 basket of each fruit baskets we can make using all fruit.
