Answer:

the price paid is £288,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the price paid is shown below:

Sale of the another house is £283,392

Since the another house would be 1.6% less than the price paid

So, the price paid would be

= £283,392 × 100 ÷ (100 - 1.6%)

= £283,392 × 100 ÷ 98.4

= £288,000

Hence, the price paid is £288,000

An agency has 4,000 employees. 2,000 employees have at least two years of college education. 1,000 of those employees have bache

Answer:

1/80 of the agency's employees have PhDs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of employees = 4000

Number of employees with bachelors degree = 1000

Fraction of employees with graduate degree = 1/4 of 1000 = 250

1/5 of the employees with graduate degrees have PhD.

Number of employees with PhDs = 1/5 of 250 = 50

Now,

Fraction of PhD employees to total employees = $\frac{50}{4000} = \frac{1}{80}$

Hence,

1/80 of the agency's employees have PhDs.

Select the two binomials that are factors of this trinomial.

mojhsa [17]

To split this trinomial into two binomials, let's try and find two numbers which add to 6 and multiply to 8. To do this, we can list all the factors of 8 and then choose which factors also add to 6.

Factors of 8: (1, 8), (2, 4)

1 + 8 = 9, meaning that 1 and 8 are not the factors we are looking for. However, 2 and 4 do add to 6. By combining these numbers which an x (so that we can produce the $x^2$ term at the front of the trinomial), we find the binomials:
