let the numbers be x and y

x + y = 1600 ----*

12%x = 20%y

0.12x = 0.2y

y = <u>0</u><u>.</u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u>x</u>

0.2

y = 0.6x

substitute in * eqn

x + 0.6x = 1600

1.6x = 1600

x = 1000

then,

y = 0.6*1000

y = 600

the numbers are 1000 and 600

Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each sale
Katarina [22]

Answer:

12 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of sales each man had.

For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.

For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x.  We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.

Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:

65x = 40x+300

Subtract 40x from each side:

65x-40x = 40x+300-40x

25x = 300

Divide both sides by 25:

25x/25 = 300/25

x = 12

Round each number to the nearest ten and estimate the sum.<br>82.14 + 38.5 + 41.3​
blagie [28]

82.14 will be rounded down to 80, 38.5 will be rounded up to 40, and 41.3 will be rounded down to 40.

80 + 40 + 40 = 160

The approximate sum is 160.

PLS HELP!! A student randomly guesses the answers to two true-false questions. Describe and correct the error in finding the pro
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The student was wrong. The probability is actually 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say you have question A and question B. You could have incorrect on A, and incorrect on B. Or, you could have incorrect on A, but a correct on B. Or, you could have an incorrect on B, but a correct on A. Or, both could be correct. <em><u>Since there are 4 different possibilities, the actual probability is 1/4.</u></em>

why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get greater while fractions raised to an exponent get smaller?
Scrat [10]
Because 3^2 = 9
When you do (⅓)^2 what you are really doing is
(1^2)/(3^2) = 1/9


If you have (⅔)^2 you do
(2^2)/(3^2) = 4/9

Fractions get smaller because the denominator is also being squared which makes the denominator get bigger and when the denominator is bigger, you are dividing by a larger number which gives you a smaller answer. Whereas when you raise a whole number to an exponent, only the numerator get bigger because the denominator is 1 and 1 raised to any exponent is still 1

3^2 = (3^2)/(1^2) = 9/1 = 9
