hi,
Express the ratios in fractional form, that is
= ( cross- multiply )
y + 3 = k(y + 5) ← distribute
y + 3 = ky + 5k ( subtract ky from both sides )
y - ky + 3 = 5k ( subtract 3 from both sides )
y - ky = 5k - 3 ← factor out y from each term on the left side
y(1 - k) = 5k - 3 ← divide both sides by (1 - k)
y = 5k- 3
____
1 - k
The real estate agent has a commission rate of 33.3%
if youy divide 240000 by 7200 then you would get 33.33333333
which would mean she has a (1/3) commission rate. hope this helps you out!
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Our expression:
2 * (18 + - 8)
Plus then minus (+ -) is the same as just minus ( - )
Some examples:
1 + (+ 1) = 2
1 + (- 1) = 0
1 - (+ 1) = 0
1 - (- 1) = 2
Thus, 18 + - 8 is the same as 18 - 8
2 * (18 + - 8) =
= 2 * (18 - 8) =
= 2* (10) =
= 2 * 10 =
= 20
Answer: 20
Answer:
45% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
The new number (87) is bigger than the original number (60), so this is a percent increase.
To find the percent of change, which in this case is a percent increase, take the change amount and divide by the original, then convert to a percent.
Subtract to find the change.
87 - 60 is 27.
27 is the amount of change.
change/original
= 27/60
= .45
Times by 100 to change to a percent.
.45 × 100
= 45%
