I think you intended writing #30 as his pay rise instead of #30000. I solved the problem using #30 as his annual pay rise.

Answer:

The man's initial salary was #714

Step-by-step explanation:

Extracting the key information from the question:

*** A man got a pay raise for 10 years.

*** His current salary is #1,014

*** He gets a pay raise of #30 annually.

*** We are simply required to calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise.

Now, To calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise, let us denote that initial salary that we are currently unaware of by "a".

Since his salary as at today is #1,014 and he has also received this pay rise of #30 for 10 years, we can calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise every year with the following equation:

a + 30(10) = 1014

That is -

Initial salary + [pay rise × number of years] = current salary.

a + 30(10) = 1,014

a + 300 = 1014

a = 1014 - 300

a = #714

Therefore the man's initial salary was #714

If postage costs $.54 for the first ounce and $.22 for the each additional ounce, calculate the cost of mailing a 10- ounce enve
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Hence, the total cost of mailing 10 ounces is:

$ 2.52

Step-by-step explanation:

If postage costs $.54 for the first ounce and $.22 for the each additional ounce.

i.e. cost of first ounce=$ 0.54.

Now let x denote the number of ounces after the first ounce,

Hence, the cost of x ounces=$ (0.22×x)=$ 0.22 x

Hence, the cost of mailing (x+1) ounces is: $ (0.54+0.22 x)

Now, we have to find the cost of  mailing a 10- ounce envelope.

i.e. after the first ounce we need 9 more ounces.

Hence, the total cost of mailing is calculated as:

=$ (0.54+0.22\times 9)\\\\=$ (0.54+1.98)\\\\=$ 2.52\\

Hence, cost of mailing 10 ounces is:

$ 2.52

melamori03 [73]
The expression for the total amount that Lupita paid for the gown would be 1.06g.

The amount of the tax is 0.06g and the cost of the g is just 1g. If we add the two expressions together will will get the total amount paid.

0.06g + 1g = 1.06g

A bicycle wheel has a circumference of 62 inches. Find the diameter of the wheel. If necessary, round to the tenths place. A. 39
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The answer to your question is        diameter  = 19.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Circumference = 62 in

diameter = ?

Process

1.- Write the formula of Circumference, remember that circumference = perimeter.

    Perimeter = 2πr

2.- Equal the equation to the value given

                        2πr = 62

-Solve it for r

                            r = 62/2(3.14)

-Result

                           r = 62/6.28

                           r = 9.87 in

3.- Find the diameter

             diameter = 2r

             diameter = 2(9.87)

             diameter  = 19.7 in
