Answer:

New Wage after 10% increase =£374

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume  Carol's initial weekly wage be £ x

Now there is 10% decrease in weekly wage

10 %  of weekly wage = 10 % of x

                                    =  \frac{10x}{100} = 0.1x

New wage after 10% decrease =  initial weekly wage - 10% of x

                                                   =  x- 0.1x = 0.9x

It is given that new weekly wage is £ 306

so we equate £306 and 0.9x , so we have

0.9x=306

x=\frac{306}{0.9} ( divide both sides by 0.9)

x= 340

So we got

Initial weekly wages = £ 340

Now Let us find weekly wage when there is 10% increase,

10% of initial weekly wage = 10% of 340

                                            =\frac{10}{100}×340

                                            = 34

New Wage after 10% increase = 340+34

                                                  =£ 374

the answer would be 374.00

the original value before any increase or decrease is 340.00

so...

340.00 X 1.10 = 374.00

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paraphin [41]

the overhead, fixed costs, is $1000.

the variable cost is $200, so if she sells "x" tiles, then her costs is 200*x or 200x.

total costs then will just be C(x) = 200x + 1000.

namely both costs added together.

Revenue is just how much it's been taken in from the sales, since each tile is selling for $240, then the revenue is simply 240*x or just R(x) = 240x.

break even point is when those two guys equal each other

\bf \stackrel{R(x)}{240x}=\stackrel{C(x)}{200x+1000}\implies 40x=1000\implies x=\cfrac{1000}{40}\implies x=25

what if the cost for each tile were $220, 20 bucks more?

\bf \stackrel{R(x)}{240x}=\stackrel{C(x)}{220x+1000}\implies 20x=1000\implies x=\cfrac{1000}{20}\implies x=50

well, if the cost for each tile is $200, her break-even point is at 25 units, namely once she has sold 25 tiles, she's has lost nothing, has won nothing either, but hasn't lost anything.

if the cost is however $220 instead, her break-even point comes much later, at 50 units, so she'll have to sell more tiles in order to not have any losses, so she's worse off if the cost is more or course.

Which inequality represents all values of x for which the quotient below is<br> defined?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Option B: x > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is wrong because \sqrt{3(0)}will be 0. So, the inequality can't be divided by 0.

Option C is wrong because 1 will suffice this inequality. \sqrt{7}/\sqrt{3}=1.5 (approx)

Option D is wrong because any value in the root has to be greater or equal to 0 (otherwise, it's imaginary number). -1 will give the latter root a value of root-(-3).

Leaving us with only option B, which is the right answer.

Henry used benchmark fraction to compare the lenghts of grasshoppers 5/8 and 7/4. Which grasshopper is longer? Explain.
Goryan [66]
------------------------------------------------------
Change the denominators to be the same
------------------------------------------------------
5/ 8 = 5/8
7/4 = 14/8

Since the denominators are the same, the larger the numerator, the larger the fraction. Therefore 14/8 (7/4) is greater than 5/8. 

14/8 > 5/8
7/4  >  5/8

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The grasshopper that is 7/4 unit long is longer
