Answer 1
Answer:

Since, a salesman whose base pay plus commissions amounted to $53,393 last year. If his base pay was $24,650 and he made $87,100 in sales last year. We have to evaluate the rate of commission.

Let the rate of commission be 'r%'.

Therefore,

24,650 + (87,100 of r%) = 53,393

24,650 +(87,100 * (r)/(100))= 53,393

(87,100 * (r)/(100))= 53,393-24,650

(87,100 * (r)/(100))= 28,743

87,100 * {r}= 28,743 * 100

87,100 * {r}= 2874300

{r}= (2874300)/(87100)

r  = 33%

Therefore, the rate of commission is 33%.

What is the difference in elevation between High Point (673 feet above sea level) and Low point (80 feet below sea level)?

Answers

Answer:

The difference in elevation between High Point and Low Point is of 753 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since High Point is located at 673 feet above sea level (+673) and Low Point is located at 80 feet below sea level (-80), in order to know the difference in elevation between both points we have to do the following calculation:

673 - (-80) = Difference

673 + 80 = Difference

753 = Difference

The difference in elevation between High Point and Low Point is of 753 feet.
Difference is subtraction so 673-80 = 593. 593 is your answer. ;) Hope I helped.

A number, n, is added to 15 less than 3 times itself. The result is 101. Which of the following can be an equation can be used to find the value of n?a.n + (3n - 15) = 101
b.4n - 15 = 101

Answers

Answer:

Option a and  b both are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the information that is: n is added to 15 less than 3 times itself.

The result is 101.

So, the number is 15 less than 3 times to itself means: 3n-15

And n is added to it that means:

n+(3n-15)

And its result is 101 so,

n+(3n-15)=101

After simplification of above expression gives:

4n-15=101.

Therefore, Option a and b both are correct.

A fraction is a short way to write a division problem.

Whenever you see a fraction, it means

           (the top number) divided by (the bottom number).

When you pick up your pencil or your calculator and actually do the
division, the answer to the division is the decimal form of the fraction.

To change that fraction  1/5  to a decimal, divide  1  by  5 .

Then, to change the decimal to a percent, move the
