In one week the price of gasoline rose from $1.71 to $2.15 at BJs. What is the percent of change?

25.731% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

(V2−V1)|V1|×100

=(2.15−1.71)|1.71|×100

=0.441.71×100

=0.25731×100

=25.731%change

=25.731%increase

.44=44%

Step-by-step explanation:

just subtract both numbers and you get how much they added but then again it depends so my answer my not be right but give it a try if you like

9514 1404 393

  $491.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The pay for the first 8 hours is $5.40 per hour × 8 hours = $43.20. Hours over 8 are paid at 1.5 × $5.40 = $8.10 per hour. There are at least 8 hours every day for the 6-day week. There are hours over 8 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday totaling 7 hours of overtime.

The amount of sales is more than $3000, so 4% will be paid on $3000, and 5% will be paid on the $1115 in excess of $3000.

So, the gross pay is ...

  $43.20 × 6 + 8.10 × 7 = $315.90 . . . . wages

  $3000 × .04 +1115 × .05 = $175.75 . . . commission

  $315.90 +1.75.75 = $491.65 . . . . gross pay for the week

It can be less tedious to let a spreadsheet do the calculations.
