Jacqueline earned a commission of $200 for one week at work. her commission rate is 12% of the merchandise she sells. how much m

erchandise, m, did she sell that week? identify the equation that solves the problem using the idea: (original amount)(percent) = new amount m = 200(0.12) 200(m) = 0.12 200(0.12) = m m(0.12) = 200

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.

We have then:

m: original quantity of merchandise sold (in $)

We then have the following idea:

(original amount) (percent) = new amount

The new amount is the amount that Jacqueline earns for 12% of the commission on sales.

We have then:

m (0.12) = 200

Clearing m we have:

m =\frac{200}{0.12}\\m = 1666.7

  Answer:

The equation that solves the problem is:

m (0.12) = 200

The amount she sold is:

m = 1666.7

An 8-sided die is formed when two square pyramids are attached by their bases. The perimeter of the base shape is 6 centimeters.
Leona [35]
Consider one pyramid
Side length of base = 1.5cm and its height is 1 cm
Slant height of one of the lateral faces =  sqrt(1^2 + 0.75^2) =  1.25 cm
Area of one of the triangular faces = 0.5 * 1.5* 1.25 =  0.9375 cm^2

There are 8  of these so the required surface area = 8 * 0.9375 
=  7.5 cm^2 Answer

A certain car traveling at 34.0 mph skids to a stop in 29 meters from the point where the brakes were applied. in approximately
Orlov [11]
<span>Using the kinematic equations: (final velocity)^2 = (initial velocity)^2 - 2 * acceleration * distance Assuming the acceleration/deceleration on the car is constant from a constant force on the brakes. Converting from mph to m/s using 0.447 (so 34 mph is 15.2 m/s) (0)^2 = (15.2)^2 - 2 * acceleration * 29 acceleration = 4.0 m/s^2 Had the car been going 105.4 mph (47.1 m/s) (0)^2 = (47.1)^2 - 2 * 4 * distance distance = 277 meters</span>

On a coordinate plane, 2 polygons are shown. Polygon A B C D has points (1, negative 6), (5, negative 6), (6, negative 2), and (
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Use a scale factor of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

A = (1, -6)

B = (5, -6)

C = (6, -2)

D = (0, -2)

A'' = (1.5, 4)

B'' = (3.5, 4)

C'' = (4, 2)

D'' = ( 1, 2)

We note that the length of side AB in polygon ABCD = √((5 -1)² + (-6 - (-6))²) = 4

The length of side A''B'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((3.5 -1.5)² + (4 - 4)²) = 2

Which gives;

AB/A''B'' = 4/2 = 2

Similarly;

The length of side BC in polygon ABCD = √((6 -5)² + (-2 - (-6))²) = √17

The length of side B''C'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((4 -3.5)² + (2 - 4)²) = (√17)/2

Also we have;

The length of side CD in polygon ABCD = √((6 -0)² + (-2 - (-2))²) = 6

The length of side C''D'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((4 -1)² + (2 - 2)²) = 3

For the side DA  and D''A'', we have;

The length of side DA in polygon ABCD = √((1 -0)² + (-6 - (-2))²) = √17

The length of side D''A'' in polygon A''B''C''D'' = √((1.5 -1)² + (4 - 2)²) = (√17)/2

Therefore the Polygon A B C D can be obtained from polygon A''B''C''D'' by multiplying each side of polygon A''B''C''D'' by 2

The correct option is therefore;

Use a scale factor of 2.
