Lets begin with our y=mx+b, our constant(b) is 800 that she earns as a salary, our x represents the amount she sells, m then represents the commission which is 8.25% so converting that to a decimal and replacing it as m gets us y = 0.0825x+800. Replace $4500 for x and we have y=0.0825(4500)+800 solve and we get $1171.25
Answer:
The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets solve!
We have to find out how much of the candle needs to be burned!
14cm - 6cm = 8cm
The candle must burn 8cm in 4 hours!
Lets find out how much the candle burns in 1 hour.
= 2cm per hour
The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.
Woohoo, We did it! <u>Would you like to mark my answer as brainliest?</u> I would love that!
Answer:
x is less than or equal to negative 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
so for now we should pretend that the greater than or equal to is an equal sign, and simplify the problem to get x alone on a side
remove 5 from each side
-x/3=1/3-5
-x/3=14/3
multiply both sides by 3
-x=14
x=-14
so we can now replace the equal sign with the equal or greater to, so x is less than or equal to -14
Change each mixed fraction to improper
3 2/5 = 15/5 + 2/5 = 17/5
9 1/10 = 90/10 + 1/10 = 91/10
Find a common denominator. Multiply 2 to both numerator and denominator of 17/5
17/5(2/2) = 34/10
34/10 + 91/10 = 125/10
125/10
Simplify. Divide
125/10 = 12.5
12.5 is your answer
hope this helps
