Answer:
1st question: M=22.62 while C=75.38
2nd question: M=.22 while C=1.97
Step-by-step explanation:
If a mirror costing x dollars is marked up 30%, then we have to find x such that 30%x+x is 98 dollars.
We are solving:
.3x+x=98
Combine like terms:
1.3x=98
Divide both sides by 1.3:
x=75.38
M=98-75.38=22.62
C=75.38
So M=22.62 while C=75.38.
If ream of paper cost x and is marked up 11%, then we have to find x such that 11%x+x is 2.19.
We are solving:
.11x+x=2.19
1.11x=2.19
x=1 97
M=2.19-1.97=.22
So M=.22 while C=1.97
Karen has a base salary that is $2100 and does not depends on how many copies she sells.
Additional to the base salary, she gets $50 for each copy she sells, so we can write this additional salary as 50*N, being N the number of copies she sells.
Then, we can write the total pay P as:
Then, if N=22, we can calculate the total pay as:
Answer:
The equation relating P and N is P=2100+50N.
The total pay when she sells 22 copies is $3,200.
I hope this helps you

Answer: Jarrah has to rake 25 bags.
Step-by-step explanation: Jarrah
Jarrah needs to get $159 dollars, right? Well since he already has $38, we just need to subtract 159 and 38. 159-38 is 121. (121 is how much heneeds )Each bag raked costs $5, and 5 can't go into 121, so it's best to have more than less. Multiply 5 and 25, and you will get $125. That is more than enough, you cannot do 5x24 because it would be 120, which is too low. Therefore, Jarrah needs to rake 25 bags.
50 divided 2/3
50 x 3/2 = 150/2
= 75
