Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

now, we know Trever makes $500 in salary and 2% on sales, let's say he sells "x" amount, how much is 2% of x? well (2/100) * x, or 0.02x.

Therefore Trever's earnings are 500 + 0.02x, his salary plus his commission.

to earn a total of 2,000, then 500 + 0.02x = 2000, thus

$\bf 500+0.02x=2000\implies 0.02x=1500\implies x=\cfrac{1500}{0.02}\\\\\\ x=75000$

Machine M, working alone at its constant rate, produces x widgets every 4 minutes. Machine N, working alone at its constant rate

Harman [31]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Machine M, working alone at its constant rate, produces x widgets every 4 minutes. Machine N, working alone at its constant rate, produces y widgets every 5 minutes.

When both machines work for 20 minutes

Machine A would produce = $\frac{20}{4} =5$ widget and

Machine B would produce = $\frac{20}{5} =4$ widgets

So we can say that Machine A would produce more widgets than Machine N at that time.

Answer is Yes
