Answer:
a) c = (5/100)*d
b) c = 0.05*d
c) The ratio between what Lee recieves and what he sold.
d) d = 2000
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Lee earns 5% in commission for each sale then:
a) c = (5/100)*d
b) c = 0.05*d
c) In this context the constant of proportionality means the ratio of the value Lee sold that he'll earn as a comission.
d) Since he wants to earn $100, then c = 100 and we solve for d
c = 0.05*d
100 = 0.05*d
0.05*d = 100
d = 100/0.05 = $2000
He needs to sell $2000.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
No, there are 4 quarts in 1 gallon, so there are
5(4) = 20 quarts in 5 gallons
Since it is an equality that means the left side of the equation (x/8) has to be equal to the right side of the equation (28/32). One way you can solve for x is to isolate it. Since it’s an equality like we said you have to do to the left side the same that you would do to the right side to isolate x. So if I multiply by 8 on the left I need to also multiply by 8 on the right. So 8* (x/8) becomes just x since 8x/8 becomes 8/8 * x which is 1 *x. On the right side we do 8 *(28/32) which becomes 28 * 8/32 which becomes 7. So x = 7.
3 because 3•3 is 9 and 9•3 is 27
