1. Let hardcover books = X
Paperback books would be 4x -3 ( 3 less than 4 times)
Now you have:
X + 4x-3 = 447
Simplify:
5x - 3 = 447
Add 3 to each side:
5x = 450
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 450/5
x = 90
He has 90 hardcover books.
2. 300 miles / 25 miles per gallon = 12 gallons of gas.
12 gallons x $$ per gallon = $48 dollars
3. Subtract base pay from total:
1916 - 800 = 1,116 worth of commissions.
Divide commissions by percentage:
1116 / 0.09 = $12,400 total sales.
4.
Find the median of the heights: 65-50 = 15. 15/2 = 7.5
Median = 50+7.5 = 57.5
The equation would be |h-57.5| < 7.5
Answer: The answer is C. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
=(120/48)
=5/2
=(4/2)+(1/2)
=2+(1/2) or 2.5
