A percentage is a number out of 100. So, 17.5% is really 17.5/100, or 0.175.
To find 17.5% of 1500, you multiply 1500 by 0.175
1500 x 0.175 = 262.5.
The commission is $262.50.
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis
We find the slope with the given points:
Thus, the line is given by:
We substitute a point to find "b":
Finally, the equation is:
Answer:
Problem 1
x = measure of angle N
2x = measure of angle M, twice as large as N
3(2x) = 6x = measure of angle O, three times as large as M
The three angles add to 180 which is true of any triangle.
M+N+O = 180
x+2x+6x = 180
9x = 180
x = 180/9
x = 20 is the measure of angle N
Use this x value to find that 2x = 2*20 = 40 and 6x = 6*20 = 120 to represent the measures of angles M and O in that order.
<h3>Answers:</h3>
- Angle M = 40 degrees
- Angle N = 20 degrees
- Angle O = 120 degrees
====================================================
Problem 2
n = number of sides
S = sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides
S = 180(n-2)
2700 = 180(n-2)
n-2 = 2700/180
n-2 = 15
n = 15+2
n = 17
<h3>Answer: 17 sides</h3>
====================================================
Problem 3
x = smaller acute angle
3x = larger acute angle, three times as large
For any right triangle, the two acute angles always add to 90.
x+3x = 90
4x = 90
x = 90/4
x = 22.5
This leads to 3x = 3*22.5 = 67.5
<h3>Answers:</h3>
- Smaller acute angle = 22.5 degrees
- Larger acute angle = 67.5 degrees
Answer:
The wrt=itten expressions are too difficult to interpret properly. I did my best but I don't see any of the answers as equivalent to <u>-3x - 2y, so please check my interpretations of the answer options.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
"Negative 3 x minus one-half 4 y"
-3x- (1/2)4y
<u>or -3x - 2y</u>
<u>=====</u>
The answer options are too garbled for me to make sense of them. Are they:
1. 2 y minus 5 x minus one-half 2 y : 2y -5x - (1/2)2y; <u>y -5x</u> ?
2. 2 x Negative 2 x minus one-half 6 y : 2(-2x)- (1/2)6y; <u>-4x - 3y</u> ?
3. 3 x Negative 3 x minus three-fourths 4 y : 3x(-3x) - (3/4)4y; <u>-9x -3y</u> ?
4. one-fourth Negative 3 y minus three-fourths 7 y one-fourth minus 3 x:
(1/4)(-3y) - (3/4)7y - (1/4)(-3x); -(3/4)y -(21/4)y + (3/4)x; -(24/4)y + (3/4)x; ?
I don't see any of the answers as equivalent to <u>-3x - 2y, so please check my interpretations of the answer options.</u>
