Teboho has to sell a certain number of cars each month. For every car he sells over and above this number he earns 17% commissio

Nastasia [14]

The commission earned are R41123.17, R47931.67 and R15024.09

<h3>The prices of the cars before VAT was added</h3>

The VAT included prices are given as:

R271 800,00; R316 800,00 and R99 300,00.

The VAT rate is 12.36%.

So, the price before VAT is calculated as:

VAT included = Price without VAT * (1 + 12.36%)

This gives

VAT included = Price without VAT * 1.1236

So, we have:

Price without VAT = VAT included/1.1236

For the three cars, we have:

Price without VAT = R271 800.00/1.1236 = R241901

Price without VAT = R316800.00 /1.1236 = R281951

Price without VAT = R99300.00/1.1236 = R88377

Hence, the prices of the cars before VAT was added are R241901, R281951 and R88377

<h3>The commission he earned on the cars.</h3>

This is calculated as:

Commission = Price * 17%

So, we have:

Commission = R241901 * 17% = R41123.17

Commission = R281951 * 17% = R47931.67

Commission = R88377 * 17% = R15024.09

Hence, the commission earned are R41123.17, R47931.67 and R15024.09

Moby sold half his toy car collection, and then bought 12 more cars the next day. He now has 48 toy cars. How many cars did he h

castortr0y [4]

Answer: 72 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of toys that Moby had to start with.

According to the information given in the exercise, Moby sold half his toy car collection. This can be represented with the following expression:

$\frac{1}{2}x$

Then he bought 12 more cars, giving a total amount of 48 toy cars.

Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is the equation shown below:

$x-\frac{1}{2}x+12=48$

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.

You get that this is:

$\frac{1}{2}x+12=48\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=48-12\\\\\frac{1}{2}x=36\\\\x=(36)(2)\\\\x=72$

The number of adults who attend a county fair (measured in hundreds of people) is represented by the function a(d)=−0.3d2+4d+9 ,

Lesechka [4]

Given is the function for number of adults who visit fair at day 'd' after its opening, a(d) = −0.3d² + 4d + 9.

Given is the function for number of children who visit fair at day 'd' after its opening, c(d) = −0.2d² + 5d + 11.

Any function f(d) to find excess of children more than adults can be written as follows :-

f(d) = c(d) - a(d).

⇒ f(d) = (−0.2d² + 5d + 11) - (−0.3d² + 4d + 9)

⇒ f(d) = -0.2d² + 0.3d² + 5d - 4d + 11 - 9

⇒ f(d) = 0.1d² + d + 2
