Answer:

43.16 %  ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

My original wages = $7.62,

If my coworker earns 10 percent more than me,

Then his wages = (100+10)% of my wages

= 110% of 7.62

=\frac{110\times 7.62}{100}

=\frac{838.2}{100}

= $ 8.382,

Now, my new wages = $ 12,

\because \frac{\text{Difference between me and my coworker's wages}}{\text{Coworker's wages}}\times 100=\frac{12-8.382}{8.382}\times 100

=\frac{3.618}{8.382}\times 100

≈ 43.16 %

Hence, I earn 43.16% more than he does.

First you must find out how much your coworker makes. Since they make 10% more than you, you need to multiply your wage by 1.1, since 0.1 is 10% of 1. After doing this, find the percentage difference between your new wage and their wage. Your wage increase of 57.49% is computed by

<span>100<span>(<span><span>12−7.62</span>7.62</span>)</span></span> so think in terms of this to find the percentage difference between your coworker's and your wage.

Consider the following simplified algebraic expression. Which could be the original expression?
dem82 [27]

You have to simplify each equation. You can do that by adding similar values to each other:

(the first equation)

8x²y + 7x² - 5y² + 3x - 2 + 2x²y - x² -  2y² + 3x - 4

To make it easier, arrange the values around so that similar ones are beside each other:

8x²y + 2x²y + 7x² - x² - 5y² - 2y² + 3x + 3x - 2 - 4

then add the similar values together:

8x²y + 2x²y = 10x²y

7x² - x² = 6x²

- 5y² - 2y² = -7y²

3x + 3x = 6x

(- 2)+ (- 4) = -6

and if you put them together:

10x²y + 6x² - 7y² + 6x - 6

This isn't the answer to the equation, because it's different. So repeat the process with all the other equations until you find one that is identical to the simplified version.

The answer is the second one: 8x²y + 7x² - 5y² + 3x - 2 + 2x²y - x² -  2y² - 3x - 4

The endpoint of a line segment is (-9, 7). The midpoint of the segment is (10, -3). Find the other endpoint. *show work*
slavikrds [6]
First we will find the x coordinate.

x1+x2 / 2 = the x coordinate of the midpoint.

-9 + x2 / 2 = 10
x2/2 -4.5 = 10
x2/2 = 14.5
x2 = 29

Now the y coordinate:

y1+y2 /2 = y coordinate of the midpoint

7 + y2 / 2 = -3
y2/2 + 3.5 = -3
y2/2 = -6.5
y2 = -13

So the other endpoint is (29,-13)

I hope i am right :)

Answer:

Hans has done a mistake in the second step.

The correct answer is:

5x^2+13x-6=0

5x^2+15x-2x-6x=0 - 5. -6=-30 -30=15. -2

5x(1+3x)-2x(1+3x)=0

(5x-2x)(1+3x)=0

5-2x=0 1+3x=0

x=5/2 x=-1/3
