$482.5 is the FINAL ANSWER
To find commission:
We can use the base of 100% being 1650
We can use 5% because thats her commission
Use: 100(x)=1650(5) -> 100(x)=8250 after doing math, youll get the outcome of 82.5 commission
To find the total:
Just add that commission to her total being 82.5 + 400 = 482.5 $
Answer:
x = 8
y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Total small box weight = 50x [x being the number of small boxes]
Total large box weight = 80y [y being the number of large boxes]
Total boxes = x+y = 19
Total weight = 1280
<em>Determine x and y.</em>
<u>You know 2 equations. One for weight and another for number of boxes each.</u>
<u>Rewrite second equation:</u>
x+y=19
y=19-x
<u>You have to plug in one into another.</u>
1280 = 50x + 80(19-x)
<u>Solve for x</u>
1280 = 50x + 1520 - 80x
-240 = -30x
x = 8
<u>Solve for y by plugging in x into one of the equations:</u>
8+y = 19
y = 11
47 - 19 = 28
28/4 = 7
At most they can spend 7 hours
The solution is
T = (47-19)/4
T = 28/4
T = 7
I think that solution is what your teacher is asking for, i'm not certain but ik the answer should be 7 hours.
I think its 20 pounds per 17 square feet (simplest form)
