Answer: Mary makes $1160, Steven makes $142.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Facts
MARY
8% commision on everything she sells
She sells a car for $14,500
The first question about Mary asks how much commision she makes. To find that, lets find 8% of 14,500
8% of 14,500= 0.08x14,500= 1160
Therefore, Mary makes $1,160 in commision.
STEVEN
Facts
He makes 15% in commision for the supplies he sells
He sells $950 in supplies
Money made =?
15% of 950=0.15x950=$142.50
4 5/8 as an improper fraction is 37/8
——> 8*4=32 32+5=37
As a mixed number it is the same I think. 5 can’t decide into 8 so it stays 4 5/8.
Hopefully this helps...
Answer:
y = (1/3)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.
The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.
The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.
m = 1/3
x = -3
y = 6
y = mx + b <----- Slope-intercept form
6 = (-3)(1/3) + b <----- Insert values
6 = -1 + b <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3
7 = b <----- Add 1 to both sides
Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.
y = (1/3)x + 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
5 · 
· 
5 · 4
Simplify both sides of the equation.
Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.
Divide each term by 2 and simplify.

Substitute x for 6
Multiply 3 · 6
Add 18 + 9
Divide 
÷ 27
9 = 9
