Let x = the shorter piece and Let y = the longer piece. 

(3/4)x = 120 

x = 120 / (3/4) 

x = 120 * (4/3 = 480/3) = 160 feet 

y = 160 + 12

Mr. Babe used to work at a local furniture store.
8090 [49]

A. Mr. Babe made a commission of $14.85

B. He makes $15.75 per hour after the raise.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. While he worked there, Mr. Babe earned 3% on how much he sells. If he sold $495 couch, how much commission did he make?

Worth of sold couch = $495

Commission = 3%

Amount of commission = 3% of total worth sold

Amount of commission = \frac{3}{100}*495

Amount of commission = \frac{1485}{100}=\$14.85

Mr. Babe made a commission of $14.85

B. On top of his commission, Mr. Babe made $15 per hour. He eventually got a raise with an increase of 5% per hour. After the raise, how much did he make per hour?

Amount earned per hour = $15

Increase = 5%

As the increment is on per hour amount, therefore,

Amount of increase = 5% of per hour amount

Amount of increase = \frac{5}{100}*15=\frac{75}{100} = \$0.75

New amount per hour = Per hour amount + amount of increase

New amount per hour = 15+0.75 = $15.75

He makes $15.75 per hour after the raise.

Cassi collects glass bottles for a deposit.She can earn $0.25 for five bottles.Last week she earns $12.75.How many bottles did C
garik1379 [7]

$0.25 = 5 bottles

Divide both sides by 5:

$0.05 = 1 bottle

Last week: $12.75

12.75 = 0.05b where b represents bottles

Divide all by 0.05 to get b alone:

255 = b
