Answer: 7.5
Form your proportion. Let x be the width of QRST.
Length of ABCD Length of QRST
----------------------- = -------------------------
Width of ABCD Width of QRST
8/5 = 12/x
Solve for x by cross-multiplying.
(8)(x) = (12)(5)
8x = 60
x = 7.5

you'll get a decimal format, just multiply it times 100, to get the % format
Answer:
X=$5000 in sales
Step-by-step explanation:
You can write an equation in slope-intercept to find an answer.
<em>y=0.2x+1000</em>, 20% commission is the slope and the base pay is the y-intercept.
Now, just plug in 2000 for y.
<em>2000</em><em>=</em><em>0.2x</em><em>+</em><em>1000,</em><em> </em>subtract 1000.
<em>1000</em><em>=</em><em>0.2x,</em><em> </em>Multiply by 5 to get x by itself.
<em>5000</em><em>=</em><em>x</em><em>.</em>
Answer:
width equals 16
length = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there!
we know that the perimeter is 72 m
and the width is 4 m less then the length
perimeter is 2w+2l
w=width and l = length
72 + (2x-4) = 72+8 = 80
80 / 4 (because there are 4 values, w, w, l, l ) = 20
so now...
20 - 4 = w
16 = w
and 20 = l
16+16 = 32
20+20 = 40
32+40 = 72
