a salesman earns 40% commission on all the merchandise that he sells. Last month he sold $600 worth of merchandise. How much in commission (in dollars) did he earn last month?​

Answer:

2.875c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

25 black and 11 white

Step-by-step explanation:

lets say black marbles are x and white marbles are y

x+y=36

y+14=x

So: y+14+y=36

2y=22

y=11

Hence, x=25

Hope that helps!

Answer:

$35,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Fixed salary= $2,500

Commission= 10%

Sandy wants to earn $6,000 this month

Let the total earning be y and the sales be x

Therefore the expression for Sandy's earning is given as

y=2500+0.1x---------------1

when y= $6,000

substitute in 1 and solve for x

6000=2500+0.1x

6000-2500=0.1x

3500=0.1x

x= 3500/0.1

x= $35,000

Hence the amount of sales will be $35,000

Answer:

  3r +5c = 60

  6r +4c = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many aspects of "this situation" that could be described by equations. We are guessing that you want equations that will help you determine the costs of a record and a CD, assuming the costs are the same for each instance of the media.

Let r and c represent the costs of a record and a CD, respectively.

  3r +5c = 60 . . . . . . . the value of the first purchase

  6r +4c = 80 . . . . . . . the value of the second purchase

These equations comprise a linear system describing an aspect of the situation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line that passes through two given points: [tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

The equation of the line that passes through given point with a slope of m:  

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Line A:

 [tex]m=\dfrac{-1-5}{3-(-1)}=\dfrac{-6}4=-\dfrac32[/tex]

[tex]y-5=-\frac32(x+1)\\\\y=-\frac32(x+1)+5[/tex]

Line B:

 [tex]m=\dfrac{-1-2}{6-7}=\dfrac{-3}{-1}=3[/tex]

[tex]y-2=3(x-7)\\\\y=3(x-7)+2[/tex]

Point of intersect means the same coordinates x and y.

So:

       [tex]3(x-7)+2=-\frac32(x+1)+5\\\\3x-21+2=-\frac32x-\frac32+5\\\\3x-19=-\frac32x+\frac72\\\\6x-38=3x+7\\\\6x+3x=7+38\\\\9x=45\\\\x=5\\\\y=3(5-7)+2=3(-2)+2=-4[/tex]

Answer:

5.428571

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

take the fraction and divide that:

[tex]\frac{3}{7} =0.428571[/tex]

then just add 5:

5 + 0.428571 = 5.428571

or...

convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction:

[tex]5\frac{3}{7} = \frac{38}{7}[/tex]

divide like normal:

[tex]\frac{38}{7} = 5.428571[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I can draw graphs on the application

eq1)  is a line through y = 5 with a negative slope of -1    y = -x + 5

eq2) is a vertical line at x = 1/2  NO y intercept or slope  

       -2x = -1 --->  x = -1/-2    =  1/2

They intersect at    

       y = -x + 5      and x = 1/2      Substitute x=1/2 into

       y = -1/2 + 5

       y = 4.5

intersect at  (1/2, 4.5)

Answer:

y = -2*0.5ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

general formula for exponential function: y = abˣ

for point (0 , -2):    -2 = a*b⁰ = a * 1 = a

a = -2

for point (-1 , -4):   -4 = (-2) * b⁻¹       b⁻¹ = (-4) / (-2) = 2    

b = 1/2

exponential function:     y = -2*0.5ˣ

Answer: Si fuera de los que solo fuman sería del 43,5% si solo de los que lo beben sería del 20,5% si fueran los dos sería del 59%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of the population smokes or drinks is 52%.

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Then since percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part in 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b per cent means).

Thus, that thing in number is

[tex]\dfrac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

We are given that;

The drink is half, third and quarter of the percentage

The sum of these percentages must be 100%, so we can write an equation:

x + (1/2)x + (1/3)x + (1/4)x = 100

To solve for x, we need to simplify and isolate x. We can do this by multiplying both sides by 12, the least common multiple of 2, 3, and 4:

12x + 6x + 4x + 3x = 1200

25x = 1200

x = 1200/25

x = 48

This means that 48% of the population neither smokes nor drinks. Therefore, the percentage of the population that smokes or drinks is:

(1/2)x + (1/3)x + (1/4)x

= (1/2)(48) + (1/3)(48) + (1/4)(48)

= 24 + 16 + 12

= 52

Therefore, the percentage answer will be 52%.
