I arrived at 46,000 by taking 2,300 and dividing it by 5, resulting in 460, and then multiplying that by 100

To ascertain the total profit of Lynh Mangoes, we know that 5% of the profit is distributed equally among 12 employees.

Each employee received $2,300

The combined profit for 12 employees equals $2,300 × profit per employee

Resulting in a total of $27,600 for the 12 employees

Knowing that 5% is to be shared means

Thus, 5% of the total profit equals $27,600

To find the total profit, we calculate: total profit = $27,600 ÷ 5%

This results in a total profit of $552,000

What is the solution to the linear equation? 2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y – 14 y = –10 y = –1 y = 1 y = 10
Zina [9179]

2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y – 14

Start by simplifying the left side:

3y + 6 = 5y - 14

Next, deduct 3y from both sides:

6 = 2y - 14

Add 14 to both sides:

2y = 20

Now, divide by 2:

y = 20 / 2

y = 10

PIT_PIT [9121]

Answer:

2.1 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached illustration (you need to include all the mentioned locations and the distances between them),

enabling us to create a right triangle between the school and the hospital with side measures of: 1.7 and 1.2 miles

and the green line represents the direct path from the school to the hospital; thus, applying the Pythagorean theorem will yield the result:

\sqrt{1.7^2+1.2^2}\\=\sqrt{2.89+1.44}\\=\sqrt{4.33} \\ =2.081

When rounded to the nearest tenth:

2.1 miles

A ship sails at 15 miles per hour, while it can motor at 5 miles per hour. It sails for 6 hours to its destination but has to mo
tester [8842]

Greetings!

The conclusion is:

The return trip will take 18 hours.

Reasoning:

To determine the duration of the return journey, we must calculate the distance from the destination back to the starting point.

The ship travels at 15 miles per hour (mph) over 6 hours, yielding a distance of:

x=x_o+v*t\\\\x=0+15mph*6hours=90miles

The distance from the starting point to the destination is 90 miles, and for the return trip, the motor operates at a speed of 5 mph. Thus, computing the time taken gives us:

Distance=v*t\\\\t=\frac{Distance}{v}=\frac{90miles}{5mph}=18hours

Consequently, the return trip will take 18 hours to complete.

Have a nice day!

zzz [9093]
To determine the time interval δt, we must subtract the starting time from the ending time. In this scenario, the first value in the coordinates signifies time:

δt=50 - 0
δt= 50s

The time interval is 50s.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (5, 4) and has a<br> slope of 6/5?
babunello [8423]
The equation of the line through the point (5,4) with a slope of 6/5 is y = 6/5x - 2. This is determined using the linear equation format y = mx + b. By substituting in the values, you can simplify to find the y-intercept.
