Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The amount Mary earns annually = $28,000

The amount Mary grossed during a week = $655.58

The amount Mary had sold during the week to make the amount grossed during the week = $1673.19

Given that Mary makes $28,000 per year

Therefore;

The amount Mary earns per week = Amount earned per year/52

The amount Mary earns per week =  $28,000/52 = $538.46

The amount extra she made on commission = $655.58- $538.46= 1$117.12

The commission rate = Commission earned/(Amount of merchandise sold)×100

The commission rate = 117.12/1673.19 × 100 = 6.99%

Her commission rate = 6.99%

You just measured a sugar cube and obtained the following information: mass = 3.48 g height = length = width = 1.3 cm Determine
nignag [31]

Answer:     Volume of sugar cube=2.20 cm³

Density of sugar cube = 1.60 g/cm³.

The sugar cube will sink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mass of cube = 3.48 g

Also, dimension of sugar cube :

height = length = width = 1.3 cm

Since , the volume of cube = (side)³

Volume of sugar cube=(1.3) ³= 2.197 ≈ 2.20 cm³

Also, Density = \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}

⇒ Density of sugar cube = \dfrac{3.48}{2.2}=1.5818\approx1.60\ g/cm^3

∴ Density of sugar cube = 1.60 g/cm³.

It is known that the density of water is 1 g/cm³.

Here , density of sugar cube >  density of water

⇒ The sugar cube will sink .

Tomtit [17]

In this question , it is given that p represents cost of 1 container of popcorn . Therefore cost of 5 containers of popcorn = 5p and cost of 3 containers of popcorn = 3p .

And g represents cost of 1 container of granola bars. THerefore cost of 4 containers of granola bars = 4g and cost of 6 containers of granola bars = 6g .

According to the given question, the required linear equations are

5p+4g=42.50 , 3p+6g =34.50 .

And these are the the required system of linear equation .

Lisa has $150 at most to spend on clothes. She wants to buy a pair of jeans for $58 and will spend the rest on t-shirts that cos
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

14t + 58 ≤ 150

Step-by-step explanation:

If she cannot spend more than what she has, which is 150, the inequality sign has to be "less than or equal to".  It's ok if she spends less than 150, but not ok if she spends more, because she doesn't have it to spend.

We know the cost of 1 pair of jeans is 58.  Now she wants to make up the difference by getting as many $14 shirts as possible (the number of shirts being our unknown).  

That means that the cost of the jeans PLUS the unknown number of shirts cannot exceed 150.

Therefore, the inequality is:

14t + 58 ≤ 150
