Sue spent half of her money on a book.

Mathematics
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

She started with 8.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m = money

She spent 1/2 on a book

m - 1/2 m

This is what she has left after buying her book

Now she buys a pen at 1.25

m-1/2m - 1.25

This is how much she has left after buying the pen

The problem states that she has 3.20 left

3.20 = m-1/2m - 1.25

Combine like terms

3.20 = 1/2 m - 1.25

Add 1.25 to each side

3.2+1.25 = 1/2m -1.25 +1.25

4.45 = 1/2m

Multiply by 2

2*4.45 = 1/2m*2

8.90 = m

She started with 8.90

For every car you sell, you get a 6% commission. IF your total sales for the month is $125,650, what is your commission?
Lera25 [3.4K]
Let
x= total cost of cars
y= total commission paid out for all cars sold

6%= 6/100 = .06

Set up an equation:
y= .06(x)

Given: x= $125,650

substitute into the y= .06(x)

multiply $125,650 by .06.

The answers would be: 7539


hope this helped :)

in class, matthew stated "i think that a negative is like an opposite. That is why multiplying a negative times a negative equal
sveticcg [70]
Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!
