Step-by-step explanation:

CHECK THE COMPLETE QUESTION

Lin is shopping for a couch with her dad and heard him ask the salesperson “how much is your commission?” The salesperson says that her commission is 5 1/2% of the selling price. A.How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?

B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?

From the question, the commission of the salesperson is 5 1/2 % , we can convert to improper fraction as 11/5%, then we can convert to decimal by dividing the numerator by denominator which is 5.5% , we can convert from percentage by saying(5.5%/100)

= 0.055

A)How much commission will the salesperson earn by selling a couch for $495?

His Commission will be

(0.055 x $495 )

= $27.23

B.How much money will the store get from the sale of the couch?

Since we know this Commission as $27.23, then the amount the store get from sale will be

(difference between the commission and the selling price)

($495.00- $27.23)

= $467.77

Find the 75th term of the arithmetic sequence -1, 15, 31, ...−1,15,31,...
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

1183

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference:

d = 31 - 15 = 16

nth term:

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

Here, a_1 = -1

a_{75} = -1 + (75 - 1)(16)

a_{75} = 1183

7. y-2 = (x+3)<br> 4<br> 2<br> X<br> - TO<br> 12<br> 4
drek231 [11]

Answer:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying:

y = 2(x + 3)(x + -4)

reorder the terms:

y = 2(3 + x)(x + -4)

multiply (3 + x) * (-4 + x)

y = 2(3(-4 + x) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2((-4 * 3 + x * 3) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2((-12 + 3x) + x(-4 + x))

y = 2(-12 + 3x + (-4 * x + x * x))

y = 2(-12 + 3x + (-4x + x2))

Combine like terms  3x + -4x = -1x

y = 2(-12 + -1x + x2)

y = (-12 * 2 + -1x * 2 + x2 * 2)

y = (-24 + -2x + 2x2)

Solving:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2

solving for variable 'y'

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying:

y = -24 + -2x + 2x2
