Answer:
B. s = 0.85r
Step-by-step explanation:
The sale price is 15% off the regular price. In equation form, that is ...
s = r - 15%×r
s = r(1 - 0.15) = 0.85r
The equation that can be used to calculate the sale price is <em>s = 0.85r</em>.
Answer:
y = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Since AC = BC then the triangle is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is
∠A = ∠B = 50°, thus
∠C = 180 - (50 + 50) ← sum of angles in Δ = 180°
= 180 - 100 = 80°, hence
5y + 10 = 80 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
5y = 70 ( divide both sides by 5 )
y = 14
You work 50 -40 = 10 extra hours per week but get paid for 1.5 times that, or 15 extra hours. In all, you're paid for 40 +15 = 55 hours per week.
.. (55 h/wk)*(4 wk/mo)*($16/h) = $3520/mo
Your gross pay for the month (4 weeks) will be $3,520.
