This situation is governed by a linear equation:
Total Pay = Base Salary + Commissions, and here that equation is:
Total Pay = $150 + 0.14(Total of sales for the week).
Here, Total Pay = $150 + 0.14($6050) = $150 + $847 = $997
I got you sis :)
3+y/4=-y/8
Multiply thru by 8 to get:
24 + 2y = -y
3y = -24
y = -8
Answer:
$24
Step-by-step explanation:
For a markup, use the formula <em>a = ( 1 + p ) × w. </em>
!!! Remember, <em>a </em>is the selling price, and <em>w </em>is the original price !!!
!!! The <em>p </em>is the percent in decimal form. 20% as a decimal is 0.20 (move the decimal twice to the left) !!!
<em />
Inserting the values, it should look like <em>a = ( 1 + 0.20 ) × 20 </em>
<em>a = 1.20 × 20 </em>
<em>a = 24</em>
<em />
Hence, the new selling price is $24.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:7.15
Step-by-step explanation: You multiply it
Let daniel's age = d and let jessica's age = j
let your current age = x and your wife's current age = y
x = 5d (given in question)
∴ x - 5d = 0
x + 21 = 2(d+21) (given in question)
∴ x + 21 = 2d + 42
∴ x - 2d = 21
We can solve these two rearranged equations simultaneously by multiplying the first equation by -1 and adding them. This gives us the following:
3d = 21
∴ d = 7
This means that daniel is currently 7 and (if we substitute d = 7 into one of the equations) you are 35. We use a similar method for your wife's and jessica's current ages.
y = 7j (given in question)
∴ y - 7j = 0
y + 8 = 3(j + 8)
∴y + 8 = 3j + 24
∴ y - 3j = 16
If we use a similar method of elimination we get this:
4j = 16
∴ j = 4
Hence, from this we can concur that daniel is 7 and jessica is 4.
