The question is incomplete:
1. A cosmetologist must double his/her salary before the employer con realize any profit from his/her work, Miss, Mead paid Miss, Adams $125,00 per week to start.
2. Miss. Mead pays Miss. Brown $125.00 per week. How much money must Miss. Brown take in for services if Miss. Mead is to realize $50.00 profit on her work? (Conditions on salary are the same as in problem 1)
ODS
a. $275.00 b. $325.00 c. $250.00 d. $300.00
Answer:
d. $300.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a cosmetologist must double her salary before the employer can realize any profit from his/her work, for Miss. Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, you would have to determine the amount that doubles the salary of the cosmetologist and add the $50 needed as profit:
Salary= $125*2=$250
$250+$50= $300
According to this, the answer is that for Mead to realize $50.00 profit on her work, Miss. Brown must take $300.
Answer:
4:1 (I think)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's write some equations first:
For both prices increasing by 20:

then we can use cross multiplication
2x+40=5y+100
For both prices decreasing by 5:

same here:
5y-25=x-5
Using substitution for 5y, we get: 5y=x+20
2x+40=5y+100
2x+40=x+20+100
x=80
plugging this in to the second equation:
5y-25=x-5
5y-25=80-5
5y-25=75
5y=100
y=20
therefore we get x:y=80:20
4:1
Answer:
y = 0.1x+200
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's establish that:
x is independent
y is dependent
Basically, the value of y will depend on what x is.
The problem states that the slope of the line is Dave's comission, so since he makes 10% of comission, we can make the slope as 0.1x (mx)
The problem also states that the y intercept (b) is Dave's base salary, and earlier in the problem it states that his base salary is $200 a week. Therefore, b=200
now, the equation is:
y=0.1x+200
Hope this helps!
Answer: Think it is -3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
6-5(x)=9
6-5(-3/5)=9
6+3=9
9=9
