Answer:

The number of games sold by Chris  = (\frac{g}{8}  - 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of employees in the team = 8

The total number of games sold by the whole team = g

The number of games sold by Chris = Average Games sold by each member - 17

Now, \textrm{Average number of games sold by each}  = \frac{\textrm{Total number of games sold by team}}{\textrm{Total number of people in team}}\\

=\frac{g}{8}

⇒The average number of games sold by each of the team member = g/8

Hence, the number of games sold by Chris  = (\frac{g}{8}  - 17)

Point R is located at (3, 2) and point S is located at (8, 15) .
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: (4, 4.6)

=======================================

The x coordinates of the points (3,2) and (8,15) are x = 3 and x = 8 respectively. The distance between these x values is 8-3 = 5 units. So we move 5 units to the right to go from the first point to the second point.

Imagine we had 5 blocks. If 1 of them is colored red and the other four are green, then the ratio of red to green is 1:4. We have 1 part red, 4 parts green. So 1+4 = 5 total. The "red block" in the metaphor mentioned basically tells us how far to move over the total distance 5. So we move 1/5th of the way along the horizontal distance of 5.

1/5 of 5 = (1/5)*5 = 1

So we move exactly one unit along the x direction. Therefore, we add 1 to to the x coordinate of (3,2) to end up with (3+1,2) = (4,2). This isn't the final answer, but it helps get us closer.

---------------

For the y coordinates of the given points we see that the y difference is 15-2 = 13. Multiply this by 1/5 to get

(1/5)*13 = 13/5 = 2.6

We follow effectively the same steps as before, but now we're dealing with the y values this time. So we move 2.6 units in the y direction (ie move 2.6 units up)

Add 2.6 onto the y value of that last point we found to get (4,2+2.6) = (4,4.6)

So that explains why the answer is (4, 4.6)

A visual might help so I've posted one below in the attached images. In that image, the location of point T is the final answer.

An item costs $410 before tax, and the sales tax is $20.50 . find the sales tax rate. write your answer as a percentage.
Blababa [14]
Hi there! For this, we can simply divide 20.50 by 410 to find the tax rate. 20.50/410 is 0.05. That's in decimal form. Multiply by 100 to get the percent form. 0.05 * 100 is 5. That's the number in percent form. The sales tax rate is 5%.
