Find 10% of $19,200 = 1,920
Find 2% of $1,920 = 384
12% = $2,304
19,200 - 2,304 = 16,896 (year 1)
Repeat this until you have your 5th year :)
Find the slope of the line passing throught the points (2, 2) and (4, 3).
The formula of a slope:
Substitute:
If the point (x, -1) lie on the same line, then the slope of line passing through the points (2, 2) and (x, -1) the same:
Substitute:
We have the equation:
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>add 2 to both sides</em>
<h3>Answer: x = -4.</h3>
Given:
width of bookshelf no greater than 6 1/2 feet
purchased bookshelf that is 77 inches wide
We need to find the equivalent value in feet of the purchased bookshelf.
1 foot is equal to 12 inches
77 inches * 1 foot/12 inches = 77 ft/12 = 6 5/6 ft
Or we can convert the feet into inches:
6 1/2 feet convert to improper fraction.
((6*2)+1)/2 = 13/2 feet
13/2 ft * 12 inches/1ft = (13 * 12)/2 = 156/2 = 78 inches
Compare the maximum width of 78 inches to the actual width of 77 inches.
The purchased bookshelf can fit between two windows.
Answer:
Total compensation = 600 + 0.04 * s and a total last month of $1200
(which agrees with the second answer shown in the provided list)
Step-by-step explanation:
Total compensation comes from the addition of base salary ($600) plus 4% (0.04) of the sales (s). That means:
Total compensation = 600 + 0.04 * s
and since last month he brought $15000 in sales, he got from sales:
0.04 * 15000 = $600
which added to the base salary gives:
$600 + $600 = $1200
When the transverse axis is horizontal, a hyperbola centered at (h,k) has formula (x-h)^2/a^2-(y-k)^2/b^2=1. Plug in h=2, k=1, the formula is (x-2)^2/a^2-(y-1)^2/b^2=1 for some a,b. If the transverse axis is vertical, the formula is (y-h)^2/a^2-(x-k)^2/b^2=1, and (y-2)^2/a^2-(x-1)^2/b^2=1 in our case.
