because it never goes BELOW which is why you put the sign
The total amount of money he only made is calculated by
the formula:
amount made = 15,200 – 912
amount made = 14,288
Therefore the percentage commission was:
% commission = 912 / 14,288 * 100%
<span>% commission = 6.38 %</span>
Answer:
A) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to get this but this is how I did it:
1. Multiply the second equation by 1/4 to get the same fraction for y as the one in the first equation
1/4 x + 1/8 y = 2
1/4 (1/3 x + 1/2 y = 4)
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
2. Subtract the first equation from the new equation
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
<u> - 1/4 x - 1/8 y = -2</u>
-1/6 x= -1
3. Divide both sides by -1/6
<u>-1/6</u> x= <u>-1</u>
-1/6 -1/6
x = 6
4. Substitute 4 in for x in the original equation:
1/4 (6) + 1/8y = 2
6/4 + 1/8y = 2
1/8y = 1/2
y = 4
According to PEMDAS, these are the steps for evaluating this equation -
3-9=-6
-6 x 5 = -30 - 1 = -31
-31 x 6 = -186, + 2 = -184
Now our first answer is -184 (I think this is correct)
Next thing we'll do is the second equation
8-2 = 6
6 x 7 = 42
42 + 4 = 46
Now, we can divide :) -184 / 46 equals -4
Hope this helps :D!
