Answer:

His total earnings for sales of $948 is $425.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the percentage of his commission be a percentage with its value represented as x and b be his base salary , y as his total earnings

So we have;

y = x% of sales + base salary

for 849 sales and 417.92 , we have

417.92 = 8.49x + b •••••••(i)

for 1011 sales and 430.88 servings

430.88 = 10.11x + b ••••••(ii)

Subtract i from ii

12.96 = 1.62x

x = 12.96/1.62

x = 8

To get b, we substitute

430.88 = 10.11(8) + b

b = 430.88 - 10.11(8) = 350

Commission is 8% , base earnings is $350

So for total sales of 948;

y = 8% of 948 + 350

y = $425.84

What’s the equation for X?
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

perimeter of rectangles = 2 ( l + b)

34 = 2 ( x + 2 + 3x - 4 )

34 = 2 ( 4x - 2 )

34 = 8x - 4

38 = 8 x

38/ 8 = x

thus , x = 4.75 inches

1. round the result to 2 decimal places. -0.9x+2.8=4.1
lora16 [44]
1. <span>-0.9x+2.8=4.1
First subtract 2.8 from both sides.
-0.9x = 1.3
Now divide both sides by -0.9.
x = -1.4444..
This can be rounded to -1.44

What is the probability that 1 or 2 are rolled on a number cube with sides numbered 1, 2, 3, 4,
choli [55]

Answer: \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

total sides = 6

p (rolling a 1) = \frac{1}{6}

p (rolling a 2) = \frac{1}{6\\}

Note:

or - add

and - multiply

∴ \frac{1}{6} +\frac{1}{6} = \frac{2}{6}

∴ \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}

hence, p (rolling a 1 or 2) = \frac{1}{3}

Several friends bought flowers to make table centerpieces. write the ratios of purple flowers to white flowers for each friend.
Zina [86]

The ratio for Rowan = <u>4:1</u>.

The ratio for Marcia = <u>10:1</u>.

The ratio for Jillian = <u>5:1</u>.

The ratio for Lulua = <u>6:1</u>.

The smallest ratio among these for purple to white flowers is for Rowan, that is, <u>4:1</u>.

Ratios are fractions in the simplest form representing the relationship between two quantities.

The ratio of purple to white flowers for each friend can be shown as:-

Rowan:

The number of purple flowers = 8

The number of white flowers = 2

Thus, the fraction of purple to white flowers = 8/2 = 4/1.

Thus, the ratio for Rowan = 4:1.

Marcia:

The number of purple flowers = 10

The number of white flowers = 1

Thus, the fraction of purple to white flowers = 10/1.

Thus, the ratio for Marcia = 10:1.

Jillian:

The number of purple flowers = 10

The number of white flowers = 2

Thus, the fraction of purple to white flowers = 10/2 = 5/1.

Thus, the ratio for Jillian = 5:1.

Lulua:

The number of purple flowers = 18

The number of white flowers = 3

Thus, the fraction of purple to white flowers = 18/3 = 6/1.

Thus, the ratio for Lulua = 6:1.

The smallest ratio among these for purple to white flowers is for Rowan, that is, <u>4:1</u>.
