Answer: e= 6.50x + y 0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to multiply the number of hours he works (x) by the earnings per hour ($6.50), add the product of the total sales (y) and the percent of sales he gets in decimal form (0.04 = 4/100).

That expression must be equal to the total earnings (e)

Mathematically speaking:

e= 6.50x + y 0.04

First identify what each variable means. since X is the amount of hours he works, and he makes $6.50 an hour, you know you need to multiply those two numbers together creating the 6.50x. You also know Y is his total sales, and he earns 4% of Y. To find 4% of Y you need to turn the percent into a decimal, and to do this you move the decimal two spaces to the left. Since 4 is a whole number, the decimal is after the 4 so you get .04 as your decimal. Then youd multiply .04 by Y getting .04y. Lastly you add 6.50x + .04y to get E, mikes total earnings. So your final equation is

6.50x + .04y = e

Hope this all makes sense

GaryK [48]
60/100 of a mile because if in three seconds it goes 3/100 it would mean 1/100 would be one second and one minute is 60 seconds so it would be 60/100 of a mile

Lina has 12 coins in her purse. D of them are dimes and the rest are quarters.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

she has 12 - D quarters.

She has 24 (12-D) cents in quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the number of coins, and you know the number of dimes - even if the amount is a variable - you can find the amount of quarters with an equation.

If you knew that Lina had 6 dimes instead of D, you would say 12 - 6 and get the number of quarters. You can do the same thing here.

and If you know Lina has 6 quarters, you could find the amount of money in cents by multiplying 6 by 25. You can do that here too, but with variables and an equation.
