Answer:

x = 10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

commision earned = $4500. - $4200

commision = 300

therefore:

commision = 3% of the amount of the sales

300 = 3% of x( the price isn't known)

300 = 3/100 * x

300 = 3x /100

multiplying both sides by 100

300 x 100 = 3x/100 x 100

30000 = 3x

Divide through by 3

x = 10,000.

the amount of the sales = 10,000

______________

To check

commision = 3% of 10,000

commision = 300

Answer:

  1. 30m +50 = 20m +100
  2. m = 5
  3. yes. symmetric property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The expression for c in the first equation is (30m+50). Substituting that for c in the equation ...

  c = 20m +100

gives you ...

  30m +50 = 20m +100

__

2. Adding -50-20m to both sides gives ...

  10m = 50

  m = 5 . . . . . . . divide by 10

__

3. Doing the substitution in reverse, you would substitute (20m+100) for c in the equation ...

  c = 30m +50

to get ...

  20m +100 = 30m +50

This is the equation of part 1 with the expressions swapped to the other side of the equal sign. The symmetric property of equality tells you that changing sides of the equal sign does not change the value of the variable(s).

You get the same solution.

Lou has an account with $10,000 which pays 6% interest compounded annually. if to that account, lou deposits $5,000 at the begin
Tems11 [23]

ince the problem is only asking for 4 years, we can just calculated it out year by year. Recall the formula for compounding interest: A = P(1+r)n, where A is the total amount, P is the principle (amount you start with), r is the interest rate per period of time, and n is the number of periods (in this case, r is annual interest rate, so n is number of years). At the beginning (Year 0), Lou starts off with 10000: A = 10000 At the end of Year 1, Lou earned interest on that amount, plus he has deposited another 5000: A = 10000(1.08) + 5000 End of Year 2, Lou's interest from the year 0 amount has compounded, he has started earning interest on the amount deposited last year, and he deposits another 5000: A = 10000(1.08)2 + 5000(1.08) + 5000 End of Year 3, same idea. Lou has earned compounding interest on all existing deposits, and deposits another 5000: A = 10000(1.08)3 + 5000(1.08)2 + 5000(1.08) + 5000 End of Year 4, same idea: A = 10000(1.08)4 + 5000(1.08)3 + 5000(1.08)2 + 5000(1.08) + 5000 = 36135.45
