Alice gets a job selling boots, and is given the option of wages plus commission, or commission only. In the first option, she would earn $33 in wages for each day of work, plus $2.50 for every pair of boots sold. Under the commission only option, she would earn no wages, and $3.25 for every pair of boots sold. How many pairs of boots would Alice have to sell in one day to make the two options equal?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

44 pairs of boots

Step-by-step explanation:

As per two options given to Alice,

1). Wages of $33 for each day work + commission of $2.5 for every pair sold.

 If Alice sells x pairs of boots in a day, then total amount earned by Alice,

 = (33 + 2.5x)

2). Commission of $3.25 for every boot sold.

  If Alice sold x pairs of boots, total earnings of the day = 3.25x

If earning of Alice is equal in both the plans,

(33 + 2.5x) = 3.25x

3.25x - 2.5x = 33

0.75x = 33

x = 44

Therefore, for the sales of 44 pairs of the boots Alice will earn equal by both the plans.

what is 65% of 80 ??????????????

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

65% of 80 is

65*80/100=52

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate percentage:

'Percentage' is obtained by multiplying 80 by 65%.

65% × 80 =

(65 ÷ 100) × 80 =

(65 × 80) ÷ 100 =

5,200 ÷ 100 =

52

Checking:

How do we check the result?

If 65% × 80 = 52 =>

Divide 52 by 80...

... And see if we get as a result: 65%.

Calculate the percent value:

52 ÷ 80 =

0.65 =

0.65 × 100/100 =

(0.65 × 100)/100 =

65/100 =

65%

What is m∠DEF?
Enter your answer in the box.

There is a triangle DEF in which side DE is congruent to side EF and G is the midpoint of the side DF. Segment EG intersect the side DF at point G. The measure of angle DEG is (3y+4) degrees and the measure of angle FEG is (5y-10) degrees.

Answers

Answer:

m<DEF = 8y - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: DEG = [tex](3y +4)^{o}[/tex], and FEG = [tex](5y-10)^{o}[/tex].

The given triangle is an isosceles triangle with sides DE ≅ DF.

But,

m<DEF = DEG + FEG

            =  [tex](3y +4)^{o}[/tex] + [tex](5y-10)^{o}[/tex]

            = 3y + 4 + 5y - 10

            = 8y - 6

m<DEF = 8y - 6

Therefore, the measure of < DEF is 8y - 6.

Here are the ingredients to make 12 cupcakes.
For 12 cupcakes
200 g butter
200 g caster sugar
4 eggs
250 g flour
Mark is making cupcakes to sell at his school play.
Mark wants to make 1 cupcake for each adult and 2 cupcakes for each child.
There will be 152 adults and 80 children at the school play.
Mark can get these ingredients from the school kitchen.
5 kg butter
5 kg caster sugar
90 eggs
5 kg flour
Make a shopping list of any ingredients Mark still needs, showing the amount of each
ingredient.

Answers

Answer:

Mark needs 2 kg butter, 2 kg caster sugar, 14 eggs, and 1.5 kg flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, first you double the number of kids, as Mark wants each kid to have two cupcakes, not one. (Then add 80+80 to get 160)

Now add the adults to children: 160+152=312

now divide by 12 to see how many batches of cupcakes he needs to make.

312÷12=26 So he needs to make 26 batches

Now here are the ingredients needed to make 12 batches of cupcakes (I multiplied the amount of each ingredient by 26)

5200 g (5.2 kg) butter, 5200 g (5.2 kg) caster sugar, 104 eggs, and 6500 g (6.5 kg) flour.

now make the measurements the same as Mark's ingredients (or the other way around)

(to save time I am not showing each one, just the normal ingredients turned into kg and compared)

5 kg butter < 5.2 kg butter

5 kg caster sugar < 5.2 kg butter

90 eggs < 104 eggs

5 kg flour < 6.5 kg flour

Now do a little subtraction.....

5.2 kg-5 kg = 2 kg butter is needed....

5.2 kg - 5 kg = 2 kg caster sugar is needed....

104 - 90 = 14 eggs needed....

6.5 kg - 5 kg = 1.5 kg flour needed....

And there you go!!! Hope this helped!!! :D

The amount of ingredients that Mark still requires after getting it from the kitchen is needed.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the pair of points. (−4, −2), (4, 0)

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok first, you need to find the slope:

0+2 = 2=1

4+4 = 8=4

Slope: 1/4

y=1/4x+b

Now you need to find the y intercept which is b. For that you can take a coordinate pair and substitute it in the equation to find b.

I will use (4,0)

0=1/4 X 4 + b

0=x+b

minus x on both sides. x=1

-1=b

An equation of the line that passes through the pair of points

(- 4, - 2), (4, 0) is  y + 2 = (1/4)(x + 4).

What are lines and their slopes?

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

Given, A  line that passes through the pair of points. (−4, −2), (4, 0).

We also know slope(m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (0 + 2)/(4 + 4) = 1/4.

So, the equation of a line in point-slope form is y - y₁ = m(x - x₁).

∴ y + 2 = (1/4)(x + 4).

3. Ivan has completed 45% of his walk.
He has already walked 9 km. How much farther does he have left to walk?​

Answers

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

The required distance left to the walk will be 11 km.

What is the percentage?

The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

Let the total distance of the walk would be x km

As per the given information, the required solution would be as:

⇒ 45% of x = 9

45%  is expressed as 45/100 in fractional form

⇒ (45/100)x = 9

45/100  is expressed as 0.45 in decimal form

⇒ 0.45x = 9

⇒ x = 9/0.45

⇒ x = 20

So the total distance of the walk is 20 km

Since he has already walked 9 km.

So, he has left to the distance of the walk = 20 - 9 = 11 km

Therefore, the required distance left to the walk will be 11 km.
