Answer:

15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 3/4 - 1/6x = 4 1/2

move the variable to it's own side.

5 3/4 - 4 1/2 = 1/6x

change the subtracting side to have common denominators

5 3/4 - 4 2/4 = 1/6x

1 1/4 = 1/6 x

divide both sides by 1/6, same thing as multiplying both sides by 6 (reciprocal)

30/4 = x

reduce: 15/2 = x

A salesperson’s commission rate is 4%. What is the commission from the sale of $39,000 worth of furnaces? Suppose sales would do
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The earnings will double

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the sales person's earnings is 4% of the sales made.

given that the sales made is $37,000 worth of furnaces.

Step two:

we want to find 4% of $37,000

=4/100*37000

=0.04*37000

=1480

hence for $37,000 the earning will be $1480.

Now suppose sales is doubled that is 37000*2= 74000

we want to find 4% of $74,000

=4/100*74000

=0.04*74000

=2960.

the earnings is $2960.

So if sales doubles the earnings will double
