Expand the left side:

(3x + 2) (5x + 1) = 15x² + 10x + 3x + 2 = 15x² + 13x + 2

Then a = 15 and b = 13, so a - b = 2.

Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

You can quickly figure this by recognizing that the difference in commission must be the same as the base salary:

2.5%(car price) = $500

car price = $500/0.025 = $20,000

If you prefer, you can get there with equations.

At Job 1, the pay is ...

y = 10%×(car price)

At Job 2, the pay is ...

y = 7.5%×(car price)

Setting the equal (the two opportunities pay the same), we have ...

0.10(car price) = 500 +0.075(car price)

0.025(car price) = 500 . . . . . . . . subtract 0.075(car price)

car price = 500/0.025 = 20,000 . . . . divide by 0.025

Jim would have to sell a $20,000 car each week for the jobs to pay the same.

<h3><u>Answer</u> :</h3>

$\bigstar\:\boxed{\bf{\purple{x^{\frac{m}{n}}}=\orange{(\sqrt[n]{x})^m}}}$

Let's solve !

$:\implies\sf\:25^{\frac{3}{2}}$

$:\implies\sf\:(\sqrt[2]{25})^3$

$:\implies\sf\:5^3$

$:\implies\boxed{\bf{\red{125}}}$

What is the discount of a guitar with an original price of $95 and a discount of 15%.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

$80.75 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:
Initial price = $95
15% discount

In order to find the answer, we have to find 15% of 95.

$\frac{15\times95}{100} =15\times95=1425\div100=14.25$
$95-14.25=80.75$
$g=80.75$

The guitar (after a 15% discount) costs "$80.75 dollars."

Hope this helps.
