A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.
To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175
1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.
The commission is $262.50.
At x=2, y=4
At x=4, y=16
So the total change in y from x=2 to x=4 is 16-4=12
And since average rate of change = total change in y divided by total change in x within the same period, therefore the answer is 12/2 = 6
Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
You need to divide the total amount by $75, to see how many DVD players she could buy with the $568.
568÷75= 7 remaining 43
This means that Julia can buy 7 DVD players, and will have $43 extra dollars left over.
The area is equal to 230 CM.
area for rectangle :
area = width times length
area = 7 x 20 = 140CM
area for triangle:
area = 1/2 times base times height
area = 1/2 x 20 x 9 = 90CM
ADD:
140+90 = 230 CM
Well if y represents the vertical distance of the ball then you want to solve the equation for when y is 0, since 0 would represent the ball being on the ground. So substitute 0 in for y and solve the equation.
0 = - 0.001x^2 + 0.3x
we have a common factor of x in both terms so we can take that out.
0 = x(-0.001x + 0.3)
Zero product property tells us that we can set both of those products equal to zero and solve
0 = x
0 = -0.001x + 0.3
our first answer is x = 0 is obvious bc thats when the ball starts before you hit it, means it traveled 0.
solving the second equation gives us x = 300
so the ball traveled 300 "yards" I suppose your problem starts, which is impossible, but no matter thats the answer :-)
