When you plug the equation into a graphing calculator the x-intercept is -5
Or you can set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x.
1/5 (or 20%) of $1,200 is $240
$1,200 - $240 = $960
The cost of a $1,200 washing machine after a discount of 1/5 (20%) is $960
I'm pretty sure it would be 40,000 because if i'm not mistaken you meant the nearest 10,000 since the number is 39,892.
Answer:
$185
Step-by-step explanation:
The first ten suits sold for 10×$250 = $2,500
commission = 5% of $2,500 = 0.05×$2,500 = $125
The next three suits sold for 3×$250 = $750
commission = 8% of $750 = 0.08×$750 = $60
Total commissions = $125+$60 = $185
