You are given a commission of $10 for $100 in sales. You are to find the commission for $150 in sales. It is stated in the problem that the salesman’s commission varies directly as his sales. Directly means proportional, and so this relationship has a constant. Let us say the salesman commission is c and his sales is s. Let us also denote k as our constant.  

C = ks
$10 = k($100)
k = 0.1  

We need to find the salesman commission in $150 sales.  

C = ks
C = (0.1)($150)
<u>C = $15</u>

2. A line passes through points (-1,-2) and (1,4). What is the equation of the line? TI​
Simora [160]
Slope = "rise over run" the difference in y values divided by the difference in x values
= 6/-3 = -2 = m. It's negative because as x increases, y decreases

plug that into the point slope formula, with either point. generally use the most simple point
y-h= m(x-k) where m= -2 and (k,h) = (2,-2)

y+2 = -2(x-2)

simply if you want

Y = -2x +4 -2 = -2x +2

or

2x +y = 2

If a+b+c=0 then find the value of a^2+b^2+c^2/a^2-bc pls help me
VladimirAG [237]

a+b+c=0

[(a+b+c)^2=a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab+2ac+2bc]

[a^2+b^2+c^2+2ab+2ac+2bc=0]

[a^2+b^2+c^2=-(2ab+2ac+2bc)]

[a^2+b^2+c^2=-2(ab+ac+bc)] (i)

also

[a=-b-c]

[a^2=-ab-ac] (ii)

[-c=a+b]

[-bc=ab+b^2] (iii)

adding (ii) and (iii) ,we have

[a^2-bc=b^2-ac] (iv)

devide (i) by (iv)

[(a^2+b^2+c^2)/(a^2-bc)=(-2(ab+bc+ca))/(b^2-ac)]

Need answers 1-8 equations and problems solving
djyliett [7]

1) a. x = number of cars

b. x - 12

2) a. x = number of packages

b. 16 + 1/2x

3) a. x = number of coins

b. 1/2x - 6

4) 17 + x = 78

Subtract 17 from each side.

x = 61

5) x - 33 = 78

Add 33 to each side.

x = 111

6) x * 84 = 327.6

Divide each side by 84

x = 3.9

7) 1333/8.6 = 155

The speed was 155mph.

8) 2475/110 = 22.5

The trip took 22 and a half hours. (Or "The trip took 22.5 hours."
