Mackenzie sells shoes. She makes a 20% commission on all of her sales. Write 20% as a fraction in simplest form.

Write 20% as a decimal.

20% as a fraction is 20/100

20% as a decimal is 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 and 0.20

Step-by-step explanation:

20/100 = 10/50 = 2/10 = 1/5

20% is out of a 100, so move the decimal place of the 20 two times because 100 has 2 zeros.

0.20

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places
