At a real estate agency, an agent sold a house for $396,000. The commission rate is 7.5% for the real estate agency and the commission rate for the agent is 20% of the amount the real estate agency gets. How much did the agency make on the house? How much did the agent earn in commission?

$29,700 and $79,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

The selling price of the house is  $396,000

The commission rate is 7.5% for the real estate agency

The commission rate for the agent is 20%

Step two:

1. How much did the agency make on the house?

This amount is 7.5% of $396,000

= 7.5/100*396,000

= 0.075*396,000

=$29,700

2. How much did the agent earn in commission?

This amount is 20% of $396,000

= 20/100*396,000

= 0.2*396,000

=$79,200

the degrees would remain the same ( the number to the left of the decimal point.

the multiply the decimal by 60 to get the minutes and use the numbers to the left of the decimal point.

then multiply the decimal portion of that by 60 for the seconds and round off as needed.

39 .956652

the 39 remains the degrees.

the minutes = 0.956652 x 60 = 57.39912

the minutes = 57

the seconds = 0.39912 x 60 = 23.95 = 24 ( rounded to nearest tenth)

so 39.956652 = 39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds

-75.159809

the -75 remains the degrees

the minutes = 0.159809 x 60 = 9.58854

the minutes = 9

the seconds = 0.58854 x 60 = 35.31, rounded to nearest tenth = 35.3 seconds

so -75.159809 = -75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds.

the first coordinate is north or south, since it it positive it is north.

the second number is east or west, because it is negative it is west.

39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds n

-75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds w
