Ricardo earned $52,000 last year. He just received a 3% salary increase. What is his new yearly salary?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
<h3>Answer:  53,560 dollars</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Having the salary increase by 3% means we can use the multiplier 1.03

Think of it like 100% + 3% = 1 + 0.03 = 1.03

The new salary is 52,000*1.03 = 53,560 dollars

----------------

The slightly longer way to do this is to first figure out how much 3% of 52,000 is

3% of 52,000 = 0.03*52,000 = 1560

Ricardo earns $1560 more dollars on top of the salary of $52,000

So overall his new salary is $1,560 + $52,000 = $53,560

----------------

Personally, I prefer the first method because it's quicker and it allows for multiple percentage increases to chain together. It also could be used to chain in percentage decreases as well.

Solve the combined inequality x + 3 &gt; -5 and -4x ≥ -16 showing all of your work
ad-work [718]
Well for the first one you have to subtract 3 on both sides so that would make the equation x > -8 (because a negative subtracting a positive is basically a negative plus negative) and so your equations done.  For the second one you divide both ides by -4 so your equation would be x < 4 (the sign would be less then or qual to because you divided by a negative)
