ΔARP ≈ ΔCRD
42/x = 57/(10+x)
cross-multiply:
42(10+x) = 57x
420 + 42x = 57x
420 = 15x
28 = x
Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be represented by x. You are given ...
(3/5)x = 42
Multiplying by 10/3 gives ...
(10/3)(3/5)x = (10/3)(42)
2x = 140 . . . . the value of twice the number
Answer:
Kyle’s fixed monthly salary in dollars is $1800
Step-by-step explanation:
let a be the fixed monthly salary
let b% represent the fixed percentage of sales
a+(b%*15000)=2550
a+(b%*25000)=3050
a+(b/100*15000)=2550
a+150b=2550
a+(b/100*25000)=3050
a+250b=3050
now we have
a+150b=2550
a+250b=3050
let subtract a+150b=2550 from a+250b=3050
100b=500
b=500/100=5%
then a+(5%*15000)=2550
a+750=2550
a=2550-750=$1800
