Answer:
5 Cars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cars to be sold to make the total pay equal be x.
The first company pays a salary of $12,500 plus commission of $1500 for each car sold.
- Algebraically written as: 12500+1500x
The second company pays a salary of $17,500 plus a commission of $500 per car sold.
- Algebraically written as: 17500+500x
Equating both sides
12500+1500x=17500+500x
Collect like terms
1500x-500x=17500-12500
1000x=5000
Divide both sides by 1000
x=5
Therefore, when 5 cars are sold, the total pay would be the same.
The whole bill is $31.99 that is 100%. You can use mental math to determine exatcly 15% from $31.99:
1. 15%=10%+5%
2. To find 10% from $31.99 you should simply divide $31.99 by ten. Thus, 10% from $31.99 is $3.199.
3. 5% is half of 10%, then 5% from $31.99 is $3.199:2=$1.5995.
4. 15% from $31.99 is $3.199+$1.5995=$4.7985≈$4.80.
Answer: correct choice is B.
Answer:
The number of cups = 8 ....
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of cups
Let y be the number of plates
According to the given statement:
y=2x-4 This is equation 1
Now,
60% = 0.60
y=0.60(x+y) This is equation 2
Now substitute equation 1 in equation 2.
y=0.60(x+y)
2x-4=0.60(x+2x-4)
2x-4=0.6x+1.2x-2.4
Solve the like terms:
2x-4=1.8x-2.4
2x-1.8x=4-2.4
0.2x=1.6
x=1.6/0.2
x= 8 cups
Therefore the number of cups = 8 ....
