6x - 2y = 26 2x + 3y = 5 Solve for X and Y

Softa [21]3 years ago

Answer:

y is equal to -1

x is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.

Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.

Natalie works in a department store selling clothing. She makes a guaranteed salary of $300 per week, but is paid a commission o
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Natalie basic salary is $300 per week. She is paid a commission of 30% of her total sales for the week. Therefore her total weekly salary per week is given by:

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions

If Natalie makes $225 in sales, her commission = 30% of $225 = 0.3 × $225 = $67.5

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $67.5

Total weekly salary = $367.5

b) If Natalie makes $x in sales, her commission = 30% of $x = 0.3 × $x = $0.3x

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $0.3x

Total weekly salary = $(300 + 0.3x)

What is x?? I'm so confused!
LiRa [457]

Answer:

x = 468%

Step-by-step explanation:

I see a proportion here.

we want to solve for the variable x in the proportion:

18% / (2 weeks) =   ( x %) / (52 weeks)

here we should multiply 52 to boths sides

(52 weeks) * 18%  / (2 weeks) =   x %

26  * 18% =  x %

x = 468 %
