X + y = 56 ------------------(1)
x:y = 5:3
x/y = 5/3
3 x = 5 y
so, x = (5/3)y---------------(2)
sub (2) in (1)
x + y = 56
(5/3)y + y = 56
5 y + 3 y = 168
8 y = 168
y = 168 / 8 = 21
x = (5/3) x 21
= 35
the value of x - y = 35 - 21
= 14
Let
x = base pay per month
y = commission per $1 of sales
Then the monthly pay for selling $100 of merchandise is
P = x + 100y
In one month, Alyssa earned $388 for selling $400 worth of merchandise.
Therefore
x + 400y = 388 (1)
In another month, she earned $520 for selling $1000 worth of merchandise.
Therefore
x + 1000y = 520 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2).
x + 1000y - (x + 400y) = 520 - 388
600y = 132
y = 0.22
From (1), obtain
x = 388 - 400y = 388 - 400*0.22 = 300
When Alyssa sells $3300 worth of merchandise, she earns
300 +0.22*3300 = $1026
Answer: $1026
Answer:
7/165
Step-by-step explanation:
We take number after the decimal point 042
then we subtract the non repeating.In this case is 0 so we not subtract anything
This will be the numerator 42
For each repeating decimal we write a 9 (in this case 2 nines)
For each non repeating decimal we write a zero
Denominator is 990
42/990 = 7/165
7:165 = 0.0424242
I think this is what you do. Hope it helps!
