since the 5 is a negative you are actually subtracting it from 3
so 3 +(-5) is actually 3-5. which = -2
To figure out you would first find a common factor with would be 12. After that 1/4 would be 3/12, 1/3 would be 4/12 and 1/6 would be 2/12. Next you just add all the numbers and get 9/12 then the remainder is you answer which comes to be 3/12 or 1/4. Hope that helps:)
- 5x.
In case you actually want to know how I got it:
the question is just saying "8x - 13x".
8 - 13 = -5
Based on the information about the percentage, the commission that will be paid will be $3050.
<h3>How to solve percentage</h3>
From the information given, it was stated that there's a 10 percent on first $5,000 and 15% over $5,000.
The total graduate commission on $22,000 will be:
= (10% × $5000) + (15% × $17000)
= (0.1 × $5000) + (0.15 × $17000)
= $500 + $2550
= $3050

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a² + b² = c², c being the hypotenuse.
Substitute known values into the equation.
7² + 2² = c²
49 + 4 = c²
c² = 53
c = √53
c = 7.28010989
Answer: The hypotenuse's length is 7.3 feet.
