4000-400=3600 gallons
Answer: Yes. On average, it takes about 455 days for 1 person to throw away 1 ton of garbage, so just over 1 year.
Step-by-step explanation: The average person throws away 4.4 pounds of trash daily. So, the way to figure this out is 2,000 divided by 4.4 to find out the number of days it would take to throw away 2,000 pounds of trash.
There was $800 deposited at 9% interest and $400 deposited at 4% interest.
The formula for simple interest is I = prt. Using our information we have:
88 = x(0.09)(1) + (1200-x)(0.04)(1)
88 = 0.09x + 48 - 0.04x
88 = 0.05x + 48
Subtract 48 from both sides:
88 - 48 = 0.05x + 48 - 48
40 = 0.05x
Divide both sides by 0.05:
40/0.05 = 0.05x/0.05
x = 800
1200 - x = 400
Answer: the commission received by the salesperson is $576.9225
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the auction price
At the dealership, a sales person sold the boat for 30% more than the auction price. It means that the amount for which he sold the boat is
x + (30/100 × x)
= x + 0.3x = 1.3x
If the dealer paid $10,000 for a boat at an auction, it means that
1.3x = 10000
x = 10000/1.3
x = 7692.31
The difference between the auction price and the dealer price is
10000 - 7692.31 =$2307.69
The sales person received a commission of 25% of the difference between the auction price and the dealer price. It means that the commission received by the salesperson is
25/100 × 2307.69 = $576.9225
