A realtor makes a commission of $11,400 on a $190,000 house he sells. What is his commission rate?

1 answer:

4 0

So bassically
his commision rate is
x% times 190000=comission
so x% times 190000=11400
divide both sdies by 190000
x%=11400/190000
solve for x percent
11400/190000=114/1900=3/50
x%=3/50
percent means parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
x/100=3/50
3/50=6/100
x/100=6/100
multiply both sdies by 100
x=6

the commision rate is 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

tan30° = Height of person / (Distance away from river bank + river's width) = 1/√3.

Therefore 1.6m / (2m + x) = 1/√3

By cross multiplication, 1.6√3 = 2 + x.

Hence, x ≈ 0.77m.
