If we place what the husband earns as h and what the wife earns as w, we can begin...
w + h = 110000

but w = 2h - 16000

We can turn it into..

2h - 16000 + h = 110000

Which we can then combine into..

3h - 16000 = 110000

Add 16000 and..

3h = 126000

Divide by three...

h = 42000

(nice)

The husband earns 42,000$ a year

Bonus: The wife then earns 68,000$

42,000 (or h) + 68,000 (or w) = 110,000

Because this is the original equation, we are correct.

Steve's bedroom measures 12 feet by 13 feet. Ricardo's bedroom measures 8 feet by 14
lina2011 [118]

Answer: Steve's bedroom has the greater area.

Step-by-step explanation: The formula for area is Area = Length x Width.

So all you have to do to figure this out is multiply the Width of the rooms by the length.

So Steve's room is 12ft X 13ft = 156ft

Ricardo's room is 8ft X 14ft = 112ft

156ft > 112ft

Steve's room has a greater area.

How do you calculate a net worth statement?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

a. Assets - Liabilities

Step-by-step explanation:

Assets/Liabilities is a management method to minimize risk. So, it cannot be the answer.

There is no formula like "Assets + Liabilities" and "Assets x Liabilities" in accounting to calculate the net worth. Therefore, those can be eliminated.

We know that net worth is calculated by deducting all liabilities (long-term and short-term) from net assets. Therefore, option (a) is the correct answer.

the sum of 3 decimal numbers is 6. Exactly one of the numbers is less than 1 what could those numbers be.
kati45 [8]
There are infinitely many solutions to this problem (which is why it asks what could those numbers be), so you just have to make one up!

Start with the first sentence.
x + y + z = 6.0

Now one of those numbers has to be less than 1. I'll choose x. And I'll choose a random number, say, 0.7.

0.7 + y + z = 6.0

Now I'll subtract 0.7 from both sides to see what y and z have to add up to.

0.7 + y + z - 0.7 = 6.0 - 0.7
y + z = 5.3

Now I'll choose a random number for y that's less than 5.3.

2.6 + z = 5.3

And subtract 2.6 from both sides to find z.

2.6 + z - 2.6 = 5.3 - 2.6
z = 2.7

And now we have our numbers!
x = <u>0.7</u>
y = <u>2.6</u>
z = <u>2.7</u>

Footware manufacturing is projected to decrease output by 8.4% from 2006 to 2016. If footware manufacturing had 1.8 billion doll
kramer
Since the manufacturing company is expected to have a lower output by 8.4%, the output in 2016 will only be 91.6%. Given also that their output in 2006 is 1.8 billion dollars, we multiply this value by the decimal equivalent of 91.6% to determine the answer. That is,
                          projected output in 2016 = ($1.8 B) x (0.916)
                                                                 = $1.6488 B
Thus, the expected output in 2016 is approximately $1.6488 B.
