Answer:

30% of the company’s total employees telecommute

Step-by-step explanation:

Masco Industries has 285,000 total employees. Of those employees, 85,500 telecommute.

To find the percentage of company’s total employees telecommute

We divide the number of employees telecommute by total employees

Then we multiply by 100 to get percentage

Percentage = $\frac{number \ of \ telecommute \ employess}{total \ employees} * 100$

Percentage = $\frac{85500}{285000} * 100$

Percentage = 0.3 * 100 = 30%

Tonya and Leo each bought a cell phone at the same time. The trade-in values, in dollars, of the cell phones are modeled by the

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The answer is Tonya's phone had the greater initial trade-in value.

Leo's phone decreases at an average rate slower than the trade in value of Tonya's phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tonya

$f(x) = 490 * 0.88^x$

Leo

$x \to g(x)$

$0 \to 480$

$2 \to 360$

$4 \to 470$

Solving (a): The phone with greater initial value

The initial value is when x = 0. So, we have:

$f(x) = 490 * 0.88^x$

$f(0) = 490 * 0.88^0$

$f(0) = 490 * 1$

$f(0) = 490$

From Leo's table

$g(0) = 480$

By comparison;

$f(0) > g(0)$

i.e.

$490 > 480$

<em>So: Tonya's had the greater initial trade-in value</em>

Solving (b): The phone with lesser rate

An exponential function is:

$y = ab^x$

Where:

$b \to rate$

For Tonya

$b = 0.88$

For Leo, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,480)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (2,360)$

So, the equation becomes:

$y = ab^x$

$480 = ab^0$ and $360 = ab^2$

Solving $480 = ab^0$ , we have:

$480 = a * 1$

$480 = a$

$a= 480$

$360 = ab^2$ becomes

$360 = 480 * b^2$

Divide both sides by 480

$0.75 = b^2$

Take square roots

$0.87 = b$

$b=0.87$ -- Leo's rate

By comparison; Leo's rate is slower i.e. 0.87 < 0.88

Is 2/4 greater than 1/2

Triss [41]

A fraction with the same numerator (number on top) as another but with a smaller denominator (number on bottom) is a larger number. For example 1/2 is bigger than 1/3 which is bigger than 1/4, etc.

Solve both equations.

lakkis [162]

Equation 1:

Answer:

x = 1.22

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5x-1}{8} -\frac{5-7x}{2} = \frac{3(6-x)}{6}$

$\frac{2(5x-1) - 8(5-7x)}{16} = \frac{3(6-x)}{6}$

$\frac{(10x-2) - (40-56x)}{16} = \frac{3(6-x)}{6}$

$\frac{(10x-2-40+56x)}{16} = \frac{3(6-x)}{6}$

$\frac{(66x-42)}{16} = \frac{3(6-x)}{6}$

$\frac{(66x-42)}{16} = \frac{(18-3x)}{6}$

$(66x-42) \times 6 = (18-3x) \times 16$

$(396x-252) = (288-48x)$

$(396x +48x) = (288+252)$

$444x = (540)$

$x = \frac{540}{444}$

x = 1.22

Equation 2:

Answer:

x = -13.97

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{3} - \frac{7(x-2)}{9} = 4- \frac{2x-5}{6}$

$\frac{9x-3(7(x-2))}{27} = 4- \frac{2x-5}{6}$

$\frac{9x-3(7x-14))}{27} = 4- \frac{2x-5}{6}$

$\frac{9x-(21x-42))}{27} = 4- \frac{2x-5}{6}$

$\frac{9x-(21x-42)}{27} = \frac{24 - (2x-5)}{6}$

$\frac{-12x+42}{27} = \frac{-2x+29}{6}$

$(-12x+42) \times 6 = (-2x+29) \times 27$

$(-72x+252) = (-34x+783)$

$(252-783) = (-34x +72x)$

$(-531) = (38x)$

$x =\frac {-531}{38}$

x = -13.97
