Answer:

(A) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets define the number as x.

"8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number" is translated into "8(x - 6) = 4x"

8(x - 6) = 4x

8x - 48 = 4x

4x = 48

x = 12

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.  12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.

8x - 48 = 4x

8x - 4x = 48

4x = 48

x = 48/4 = 12

Luda [366]

Answer:

82.5% Americans owned a TV also owned a DVD player .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Percentage = \frac{Part\ value\times 100}{Total\ value}

As given

Of the 114.2 million Americans who owned a TV, 94.2 million also owned a DVD player.

Here

Part value = 94.2 million

Total value = 114.2 million

Putting all the values in the formula

Percentage = \frac{94.2\times 100}{114.2}

Percentage = \frac{94200\times 10}{1142\times 10}

Percentage = \frac{942000}{11420}

Percentage = 82.5 %

Therefore 82.5% Americans owned a TV also owned a DVD player .

TEA [102]

Answer:

$24166.67

Step-by-step explanation:

$25 per hour and works 35 hours per week

Norma Jean makes 35 * 25  (<em>without sales) = </em>$875

<em> </em>Total commission made by Norma<em> </em>= 4500-875 = $3625

<em>let total number of sales by Norma be x</em>

15% is the same as 15/100

<em>so </em>(15/100) * x =3625 <em> multiplying both sides by 100</em>

15x = 362500<em> making x subject of formula</em>

x = 362500/15

x = 24 166.67

Norma should sell total items worth $24166.67
