Elizabeth Oliver sells luxury cars. She earns a 4 percent straight commission. Lastmonth her sales totaled $128,000. What was her commission?

Answers

Answer 1

$128,000 represents 100%

To find how much is 4% we can use the next proportion:

[tex]\frac{128,000\text{ \$}}{x\text{ \$}}=\frac{100\text{ \%}}{4\text{ \%}}[/tex]

Solving for x:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 128,000\cdot4=100\cdot x \\ \frac{512,000}{100}=x \\ 5,120=x \end{gathered}[/tex]

Her commission is $5,120

Find the value of each variable

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are verticle angles:

8x+7=9x-4

subtract 8x and add 4

x=11

Answer is x = 11

Your equation since they are vertical angles, they are equal to each other

8x + 7 = 9x - 4

Subtract 9x from both sides to combine variable

8x -9x +7 = 9x - 9x -4
Combine

-1x +7 = -4

Subtract 7 from both sides to solve for x

-x +7 -7 = -4 -7
Combine

-x = -11

x = 11

Substitute 11 for x in your angle expressions

8x + 7 = 9x - 4

8(11) + 7 = 9(11) - 4
88 + 7 = 99 - 4
95 = 95

They equal so it checks true

Jordan and his children went into a restaurant and he bought $26 worth of drinks
and tacos. Each drink costs $2.50 and each taco costs $2. He bought 4 more tacos
than drinks. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number
of drinks and the number of tacos that Jordan bought.

Answers

The system of equations that could be used to determine the number of drinks and the number of tacos that Jordan bought are 2.5x + 2y = 26 and y = x + 4.

How to form an equation?

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

Let's assume that number of drinks that Jordan and his children bought is x while the number of tacos is y.

The cost of drinks = 2.50x

Cost of tacos = 2y

Total cost 2.5x + 2y

2.5x + 2y = 26

Given that,

He bought 4 more tacos than drinks.

Therefore,

y = x + 4.

Hence "The system of equations that could be used to determine the number of drinks and the number of tacos that Jordan bought are 2.5x + 2y = 26 and y = x + 4".

What is the image of ( − 8 , − 4 ) after a dilation by a scale factor of 1 4 4 1 ​ centered at the origin?

Answers

The image of the point after the dilation is (-2, -1)

What is dilation?

Dilation is the process of altering the side length of a shape or a function

How to determine the image of the points?

From the question, the given parameters are:

Point =  (-8, -4)

The scale factor of dilation is given as

Scale factor = 1/4

Mathematically, this transformation can be represented as

(x, y) = k(x, y)

Where k = 1/4 i.e. the scale factor

So, we have

(x, y) = (kx, ky)

This gives

(x, y) = (1/4x, 1/4y)

When represented as an equation, we have

Image = 1/4 * Point

Substitute the equation Point =  (-8, -4) in the equation Image = 1/4 * Point

So, we have the following equation

Image = 1/4 * (-8, -4)

Evaluate the product

Image = (-2, -1)

Hence, the image is (-2, -1)

5. The two triangles are similar. The value of x = 12.

6. The information cannot be used to show that the triangles are similar triangles.

How to Determine if two Triangles are Similar?

Two triangles are similar to each other if they have the same shape but different sizes, in order words, they must have the same corresponding angle measures but different corresponding side lengths that are proportional to each other.

5. In the first figure, we see that there are two pairs of corresponding congruent angles (a pair of right angles and a pair of vertical angles in both triangles), but different corresponding side lengths.

Therefore, based on the AA similarity theorem that says two triangles are similar of they have two pairs of congruent sides, we can prove that both triangles are similar to each other.

Therefore:

x/9 = 20/15

15x = (9)(20)

15x = 180

15x/15 = 180/15

x = 12

6. The second image shows that the two triangles share a common side, which means they have a pair of corresponding sides that are congruent. Therefore, the information given cannot be used to prove they are similar triangles.

What is the area of a triangle whose vertices are J(−2, 1), K(0, 3), and L(4, −1)?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Based on the vertices of the triangle, the area of the triangle can be found to be 8 cm²

How to find the area of the triangle?

First, find the lengths of JK, KL, and JL. When given vertices, you can find the length of a line by the formula:

= √ ( (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)

The length of JK is therefore 2.83 units

The length of KL is therefore 5.66 units

The length of JL is therefore 6.32 units.

Given these units, the area of the triangle can be found by the formula:

= √ s(s - a) ( s - b) ( s - c)

Where:

s = semi perimeter

a, b, and c are the sides of the triangle which are JK, KL, and JL.

The semi-perimeter can be found by the formula:

= ( a + c + c) / 2

= 15.47 / 2

= 7.74

The area of the triangle is therefore:

= √ s(s - a) ( s - b) ( s - c)

= √ 7.74 (7.74  - 2.83) ( 7.74 - 5.66) ( 7.74 - 6.32)

Find the value of $x$ that makes this equation true:

Please help quick!

Answers

The value of x that makes the equation 2x+5 = 1.99x + 22 is 1700

The equation is

2x+5 = 1.99x+22

First we have to rearrange the given term and combine the like terms, then we have to find the value of x

Move 1.99x to left hand side of the equation and move 5 to the right hand side of the equation

2x+5 = 1.99x+22

2x-1.99x = 22-5

We have to do the subtraction in like  terms

(2-1.99)x = 22-5

0.01x = 17

Move the number 0.01 to the right hand side of the equation

x = 17/0.01

x = 1700

How to find the angles of a triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with 3 sides. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

A triangle can be classified base on its sides and angles as equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle and scalene triangles.

An equilateral triangle has three of its sides and angles equal to each other.

An isosceles triangle has 2 sides and angles equal to each other.

A scalene triangle has no sides equal to each other.

Therefore,

The other triangle on the left side is an equilateral triangle.

Therefore, all it sides and angles are equal.

Hence, each angle of the triangle is 60 degrees.

A traversal line cut across the sides of the parallel lines of the triangles formed.

Therefore,

60° = 4x

x = 60 / 4

x = 15

Therefore,

60 + y + 32 = 180(sum of angles in a triangle)

y = 180 - 92
