Answer: 98268

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In an international company,

Employees in one country = 22,700

If this is 23.1% of the total number of company's employees,

[ $1\%=\dfrac1{100}$ , replace 'of' by '×']

i.e. 23.1% of (total employees) = 22700

$\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{23.1}{100}\times\text{(total employees)}=22700\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Total employees}=\dfrac{22700\times100}{23.1}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Total employees}=98268.4\approx98268$

Hence, there are 98268 employees in total.

Problem 1:

a. x=2

b. x=3

c. x=1

Problem 2:

A multiplication equation to hold the table true:

$18\times3=54$

A division equation to hold the table true:

$\frac{54}{3} =18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in problem 1:

(a). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} > 1$

It holds true for all values of $x> 6$ .

Let us say $x=12$ ,

$\frac{x}{6}=\frac{12}{6} =2$ which is greater than 1.

(b). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} < 1$

It holds true for all values of $x< 6$ .

Let us say $x=3$

$\frac{x}{6} =\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$ which is less than 1.

(c). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} = 1$

It holds true for only $x= 6$ .

Let us say $x=6$ ,

$\frac{x}{6} =\frac{6}{6}=1$ which is equal to 1.

Problem 2:

A multiplication equation to hold the table true:

$18\times3=54$

A division equation to hold the table true:

$\frac{54}{3} =18$

Therefore these are the values which hold true to the equation in problem 1 and 2.

The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price. The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent. Write a pa

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions :

The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price. The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent.

Write a pair of linear equations using variables of your choice to prove that these two statements are not equivalent.

Let the original price = x

Expression 1 : The list price of the item is 80 percent of the original price

List price = 80% of x

List price = 0.8x

Expression 2: The price of the item has been reduced by 80 percent

Price = x - 80% of x

Price = x - 0.8x

Price = 0.2x

Multiply by percentages is different from an Incremental or decrement in percentage. The first expression above signifies a direct multiplication by the stated percentage while the second signifies a decrease in price based on a certain percentage of the original price.

Wording of percentages are so important for clarity in other to understand if the statement signifies a direct application of the percentage prescribed or a change in quantity, amount or size relative to the base unit.

Write the slope-intercept form of the line between the two points.

DENIUS [597]

Answer: Y= -5x+2
First we need to find slope
M= y2-y1/x2-x1
M= -3-2/1-0
M= -5/1
M= -5
Now using slope intercept form we can solve this equation
Y-y1=m(x-x1)
Y-2=-5(x-0)
Y-2=-5x+0
Y= -5x+2
hope this helps!!
Please tell me if I am incorrect, I enjoy learning from my mistakes:)

Leo's bank balances at the end of months 1, 2, and 3 are $1500, $1530, and $1560.60,

grandymaker [24]

Leo's balance after 9 months will be: $1757.49

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the balances follow a geometric sequence

First of all, we have to find the common ratio

Here

$a_1 = 1500\\a_2 = 1530\\a_3 = 1560.60$

Common ratio is:

$r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{1530}{1500} = 1.02\\r = \frac{a_3}{a_2} = \frac{1560.60}{1530} = 1.02$

So r = 1.02

The general form for geometric sequence is:

$a_n = a_1r^{n-1}$

Putting the first term and r

$a_n = 1500 . (1.02)^{n-1}$

To find the 9th month's balance

Putting n=9

$a_9 = 1500 . (1.02)^{9-1}\\= 1500.(1.02)^8\\=1757.4890$

Rounding off to nearest hundredth

$1757.49

Hence,

Leo's balance after 9 months will be: $1757.49
