Answer:
_.75 will be to the right of the decimal point as long as the fraction is 3/4
y = her salary,
m = rate of commission,
x = amount of merchandise sold
b = monthly base pay
sets of data to calculate the formula
(500, 405) and (900, 489)
use the slope formula to find m:
(489 - 405) / (900 - 500)
m= 84 / 400 = 0.21 (21% commission)
find the base pay by substituting known values for x,y, and m, then solve for b:
405 = (0.21)(500) + b
405 = 105 + b
b = 300
now we know the equation for her salary is:
y = 0.21x + 300
To find the salary when she sells $1,700 worth of merchandise, put 1700 for x and solve for y:
y = 0.21(1700) + 300 = 657
The answer is 6x^2 - 8x + 2
Answer:
School X: 8 points School Y: 2.6̅ or 6 repeating.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you know that School X has <em>8 points</em>, and School Y has <em>3 times less</em>, you have to divide 8 by 3. When you do that, you get 2.6̅, or 2.6 repeating, which means that you have 2 that goes into 3 goes into 8 3 times, because 3 x 3 would be 9, which is bigger than 8. Anyway, when you divide again because you have to add a decimal point after the number to keep dividing, <em>you keep getting 6</em>. it's never going to change, because thats what 6̅ is. 6 REPEATING.
I hope this helps! ;)
