Okay, I worked it out and yes, it is a factor. Once you got x=-10, then you plug it into your formula. from there you can work it out like I did and get the answer. You can also input it into a scientific calcuator and figure it out that way. If you need any more help, go ahead and message me. Hope this helps. You can also but it into the box and divide it that way to find out. whichever way is better for you
Answer:
At simple interest it will be 939+939×6×0.08=$1389.72.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the fulcrum to balance, the product of weight and distance on both sides of the fulcrum must be the same.
Let d1= x. since total distance is 12, we can write d2 = 12 - x
for the fulcrum to balance:
60x = 50(12 - x)
60x = 600 - 50x
110x = 600
x = 5.45
Thus, d1= 5.45
and
d2= 12 - d1 = 12 - 5.45 = 6.55
d1 = 5.45
d2 = 6.55
Answer:
$102.96
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets take this one part at a time.
the dealership pays 12000 for the car, so they start at -12000 for how much money they have.
The dealership wants to make a 32% profit. This means they want to make back the 12000 plus 32% of that. what is 32% of 12000? just multiply 12000 bty .32 In the end it works out that the price they sell it for is 15840
I do want to mention that there is a chance the 32% might also be accounting the bonus. So in other words the dealership spent 12000 for the car then however much in paying the bonus, and they want to make a 32% profit on both of these combined. I do not think that is what it is asking for, but I wanted to mention it.
Anyway, with a sales price of $15,840 it says the bonus is 6.5% of that. to find that just do the multiplication .065 * 15840 = 1029.60. So this is the bonus normally.
Now the question says the salesperson offers a 10 percent discount. This changes the sales price (by 10%) and the bonus they earn. let's calculate both.
First 10% discount of the sales price is .9*15840 = 14,256
Then 6.5% of that is .065*14256 = 926.64 So this is the new bonus.
The question wants the difference of the two bonuses, and difference is subtraction. so 1029.60 - 926.64 = 102.96 So if the salesperson offers a 10% discount they lose $102.96
The formula of a slope:

We have the points (1, 4) and (1, -3). Substitute:

DIVISION BY ZERO!!!
Answer: The slope is undefined.
It's a vertical line x = 1.
