Earning = 1000 + 25% commison
For sales of $2170:
= 1000 + 25%* 2170
= 1000 + 542.5 = 1542.5
Gross earnings = $1542.50
<u>Define x:</u>
Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number is x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
<span>twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
</span>⇒2x = x + 2 - 16
<u>Solve x:</u>
2x = x + 2 - 16
x = -14
<u>Find the two numbers:</u>
Smaller number = x = -14
Larger number = x + 2 = -12
Answer: The two numbers are -14 and -12
The rest of the letters, A, B, C, D, and E all have only 1 line of symmetry. Notice that the A has a vertical line of symmetry, while the B, C, D, and E have a horizontal line of symmetry.
Answer:
j(x) = [ (3/10) cookie/student ]x
Step-by-step explanation:
The "unit rate" here is
3 jumbo cookies
------------------------- = (3/10) cookie/student
10 students
Then the number of cookies needed to feed x students is
j(x) = [ (3/10) cookie/student ]x
The grade on the west side would be the vertical rise divided by the horizontal run or 525 divided by 800' or rounded off to 66% (a steep grade as in an underground mine a grade of 25% is considered very steep for vehicles to go up or conveyors to travel). On the east side the 40% grade was obtained by dividing the 525' vertical height by the 1300' run.
