Answer: It costs $5.52 to Sam to buy 12 stamps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Sam paid $8.28 for 18 stamps.
Thus, the cost of 18 stamps = $8.28
Then the cost of 1 stamp=
Thus, the cost of 1 stamp=$0.46
With the same rate , the cost of 12 stamps=
Therefore, the cost of 12 stamps= $5.52
hence, it costs $5.52 to Sam to buy 12 stamps.

Answer:
Perimeter= 49
area= 360
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter means you need to add 40+9 and area means you must multiple the numbers.
First we must construct an equation to model the problem. (In this case we will use an inequality instead) This is what I came up with:
450.20+0.15s>=600.10
This equation shows how if her base earnings ($450.20) are added to 15% of her sales, represented by s, then the total will be greater than or equal to $600.10
Next, we simply solve for s. (steps shown below)
1) 450.20+0.15s>=600.10 (simply restating the inequality)
2) 0.15s>=149.90 (here I isolated the variable)
3)0.15s/0.15>=149.90/0.15 (Finally I solve for s by dividing both sides by 0.15, this will isolate s on the left and leave the answer on the right)
4) s>=999.33... (here I found the total sales the salesperson would need to reach his/her goal of earning a minimum of $600.10; the 3's after the decimal are repeating so in the next step I will round up to the nearest hundredth (b/c this is what money is rounded to and if I round down he/she would make less than her goal. This means i must round up.))
5) s>=999.34 (simple rounding; once again I rounded up b/c rounding down would slightly bring the total earnings to less than the goal)
<u>Therefore, the salesperson would need his/her sales to be $999.34 in order for his/her total earnings for the week to be at least $600.10</u> (greater than or equal to $600.10)
<u>Hope this helped!</u>
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
20(20-x)=300
1. Divide both sides by 20.
20(20-x)/20 = 300/20
2. Simplify.
20-x=15
3. Subtract 20 from both sides.
20-x-29=15-20
4. Simplify.
-x=-5
5. Divide both sides by -1.
-x/-1 = -5/-1
6. Simplify.
x=5
