Juan Ramirez sells suits in a major department store on weekends. He earns a commission of 5 percent on the first ten suits, and
Zepler [3.9K]
So, the first 10 suits came with a commission of 5%, so for each suit it was:

250*5%

this is \frac{250*5}{100} = \frac{25*5}{10} = \frac{25}{2} =12.5

but this counts for 10 suits, so together his commssion was 10*12.5=125 dollars

and the "extra" 3 suits came with a comittion of 5+3 percent, so 8 percent, which is


 
 \frac{250*8}{100} = \frac{25*8}{10} = \frac{25*4}{5} =20

for each suit, and 60 in total.

his total comission was 125+60=185 dollars.

A lake initially contains 3000 fish. Suppose that in the absence of predators or other causes of removal, the fish population in
katrin [286]

Let x = number of months.

Let y = total number of fish in pond.

6% of 3,000 = 180 fish

We can use an equation to help us with this problem.

y = 3,000 + 180x - 400x. Combine like terms.

y = 3,000 - 220x. Plug 9 in for x.

y = 3,000 - 220(9). Solve for y

y = 1,020.

There are 1,020 fish in the pond after 9 months.
