Answer:

Thus, The required equation is :

C=\frac{S}{0.15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum price to offer a commission = $150

Also, The rate of commission rate is given to be : 15%

So, Amount of commission earned per $150 = 15% of 150

                                                                          = 0.15 × 150 = $22.5

Now, C is the commission earned and S is the cost of shoes earned

Thus, The required equation is :

C=\frac{22.5}{150}\times S\\\\\implies C=\frac{S}{0.15}

Bob had 18 crackers Sam eat 1/6 of the crackers and sue ate 1/3 of the crackers. how many crackers did Bob have left
Lapatulllka [165]
We can add 1/6 & 1/3 together to find out the total amount of crackers that were eaten:

1/6 + 1/3   (Find the Common Denominator. In this case it is 6.) 
= 1/6 + 2/6
= 3/6 (Now find the Lowest Terms. Both 6 & 3 divide into 3)
= 1/2 (In Lowest Terms)

This means that 1/2 of the Crackers have been eaten.

1/2 of 18 = 9 

Therefore, Bob has 9 Crackers left.

Let a=x^2+4. Use a to find the solutions for the following equation:
Helga [31]
(x^2+4)^2 + 32 = 12x^2 + 48 .... a = x^2 + 4 
<span>(x^2 + 4)^2 + 32 = 12(x^2 + 4) </span>
<span>a^2 + 32 = 12a </span>
<span>a^2 - 12a + 32 = 0 </span>
<span>(a - 8)(a - 4) = 0 </span>
<span>a = 8 and a = 4 </span>

<span>for a = 8 ... 8 = x^2 + 4 ... x^2 = 4 ... x = +/- 2 </span>
<span>for a = 4 ... 4 = x^2 + 4 ... x^2 = 0 ... x = 0 </span>

<span>x = -2, 0, +2 so your answer is going to be e

One supplementary angle is 15 degrees less than twice the other. Find the measure of the two supplementary angles.
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The measure of the two supplementary angles are 65 degrees and 115 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of supplementary angles is equal to 180 degrees. Let x and y are two angles such that,

x+y=180\ ....(1)

According to given condition,

One supplementary angle is 15 degrees less than twice the other, it means,

x=2y-15\ .....(2)

Putting the value of x from above equation in equation (1),

2y-15+y=180\\\\3y-15=180\\\\3y=195\\\\y=\dfrac{195}{3}\\\\y=65^{\circ}

Now put the value of y in equation (1), so,

x+65=180\\\\x=115^{\circ}

So, the measure of the two supplementary angles are 65 degrees and 115 degrees.

A line passes through the point (2, 10) and has a y-intercept of 4. What is the equation of the line?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

y=3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

  • Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is equal to 0)

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where two points that the line passes through are (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

We're given the point (2,10) and the y-intercept of 4. Recall that the y-intercept occurs when x is equal to 0. This means that the y-intercept occurs at (0,4), giving us our second point.

Plug these points into the equation

=\frac{10-4}{2-0}\\=\frac{6}{2}\\=3

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3. Plug this into y=mx+b

y=3x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

The y-intercept is given; it is 4. Plug this back into y=3x+b

y=3x+4

I hope this helps!
