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%

Which quadratic equation is equivalent to (x – 4)2 – (x – 4) – 6 = 0?
Viktor [21]

I hope choices must be given in the problem.

I am showing the method to find the equivalent equation of the above equation. You can match with your given choices.

First step is to expand the first term. So,

(x-4)² = (x - 4)(x - 4) Since a²= a*a

= x² - 4x - 4x + 4 * 4 By multiplying.

= x² -8x + 16 Combine the like terms.

So, (x - 4)² - (x -4) - 6

= x² - 8x + 16 - x + 4 - 6

= x² - 9x + 14 Combine the like terms.

So, equivalent equation of the above equation is x² - 9x + 14 = 0.

fomenos
<span>Lois used a credit card to make the purchase. 

One can't purchase an item that costs more than the balance in a debit card. The debit card is equivalent to cash on hand. You can only spend what you have. 

The credit card is equivalent to a loan. You don't have the money as of the moment but when you use the credit card, you owe the issuing bank the amount you've put on credit. The bank will pay the merchant and you will pay the bank. Interest is an additional expense when you pay your bill beyond the due date. The interest is applied on the amount outstanding upon the payment due date. </span>
