42,500x0.09 should get you your commission
1/2 (6x - 10) + 10 = 5x - 13
(6x/2) - (10/2) + 10 = 5x - 13
3x - 5 + 10 = 5x - 13
3x - 5x = -13 + 5 - 10
-2x = -18
x = -18 / -2
x = 9
D.) x = 9
The correct answer is:
[C]: "

____________________________________________________Explanation:____________________________________________________Given:
____________________________________________________ 2 / (9x) = 4 / 7 ; solve for "x" ;
____________________________________________________Cross-multiply:
→ (9x)*4 = 2 * 7 ;
→ 36x = 14 ;
Divide each side of the equation by "36" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
→ 36x / 36 = 14 / 36 ;
x = 14/ 36 ;
→ x = 14/36 = (14÷2) / (36÷2) = 7/18 ;
