Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is 4x:4x:7x, if we add all those numbers up we get 15. Then we do 75/15 to get what x equals. So we get 5. So x equals 5. Following the rules of multiplication, you do 4(5):4(5):7(5), and simplifying that further, you get 20:20:35. If we add all those values up, we should get 75, and we do!

If you're wondering why I did 4x:4x:7x instead of 4:4:7, it's because a ratio is just a...well ratio? It's easier to visualize if you put a variable because the variable could be anything, and you would have to multiply all the given values to get the same proportions. In summery, I did it so it was easier to visualize

Galina-37 [17]

The correct answers are:

- Wage/salary;

- Active job seekers;

The amount of money you earn by working is your wage or salary. The difference being that the wage represents the money you get paid on hourly, weekly, or monthly basis, while the salary is what you earn in year. The wages/salaries vary a lot, some being very high, some being modest, some very high, depending on the type of job, type of economy, as well as the qualifications of the worker.

The percentage of people that are actively looking for job is called active job seekers. The active job seekers can be people that are unemployed, but also people that re employed but want to work something or somewhere else. While some people struggle to find jobs and would accept almost anything, other people want to constantly progress, thus they are not satisfying with a job where they do not progress, so they seek for new challenges and opportunities.
