Answer:

6 dollars per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up and solve an equation to answer this question. For this problem, let x stand for the amount he earned per hour. The equation that represents this situation is 3.2x + 4.3x = 45. The first term represents monday and the second represents tuesday. When these add up they should equal 45 because that is the total amount he made. To find his pay per hour, solve for x.

First, combine the like terms

  • 7.5x=45

Next, divide both sides by 7.5

  • x=6

Ramona is a saleswoman whose base plus commissions amounted to $52,561 last year. If her base pay was $23,960 and she made $77,3
Ksju [112]

Answer:

37%

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ramona received an overall pay of $52,561 last year, $23,960 of which was base pay, we can first subtract these two numbers to find the amount she made from her sales commission:

$52,561 - $23,960 = $28,601

In order to find her percent commission, we can set up a proportion:

\frac{p}{100}=\frac{28,601}{77,300}, where 'p' is her rate of commission

Cross-multiply and divide:  100(28601) = 77300x or 2,860,100 = 77,300x

Or x = 37%

My sisters phone is dead and she needs to know his question so I'll just tell you it!...
Vanyuwa [196]
 I used a calculator and it said the answer is 430858661.

The only way I know how to do this sort of long sum is with a calculator....
All you need to do is input 43789 * 9 + 138 * 12 - 1345 + 124556 x 3456 - 1287 and you will get the answer. Converted the words into the numerical symbols like times to *

If you want it to be more readable add commas so it's 430,858,661. You do it every 3 numbers. 

You'll want to do it the right order of operations since not all calculators do this automatically and it's a good habit >_>, using an acronym like BIDMAS (using the brit acronym lol) is a good way to remember this (<span>Brackets, Indices, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction)

So you'll need to do the multiplication first and then the addition and then the subtraction so this is the correct order. You want to use the brackets so it does it in the right order. 
(43 789 * 9) + (138 * 12) - 1345 + (124 556 x 3456) - 1287</span>
