The answer is −3x+3, but none of the multiple choices is it.
The first step would be to multiply negative 2 times (x+3)
Answer: 5 friends
Note: if Mariah pays for her own meal, then it would drop to 4 friends.
===========================================================
Explanation:
Add up the amount she earns:
30.25+25.75+11 = 67
Now add up the amounts that she's either in debt or that she spends money on. Ignore the dinner portion for now.
40+2 = 42
She earns $67 total and has to spend $42, without including the dinner portion just yet. That means Mariah has 67-42 = 25 dollars left over.
-------------------
Let x be the number of $5 meals she can buy
So she can spend a total of 5x dollars here. Set this equal to 25 (the amount left over) and solve for x.
5x = 25
x = 25/5
x = 5
She can buy dinner for 5 friends. Or if Mariah is paying for herself as well, then she can buy dinner for 4 friends. It's not clear which scenario your teacher is after, but I'll assume the first scenario.
Answer: $357
Step-by-step explanation:
Given , The rate of commission earned by Mike on selling 1 TV set = 8.5%= 0.085 [ To convert percent into decimal we divide it by 100]
Cost of 1 TV = $120
Then , Commission he earns on selling 1 TV = (Rate of commission) x(Cost of 1 TV)
= (0.085) x (120)
= $10.2
That means , the commission he will earn on selling 365 TV sets = 35 x (Commission he earns on selling 1 TV )
= 35 x (10.2) = $357
Hence, he will make $357 as commission if store sells 35 TV sets.
