Question

JobFind charges employers x dollars to post a job on their website. They offer a 16%

discount if 20 or more jobs are posted. If 31 jobs are posted by a specific employer,
express the discount as a percent.​

Answer 1

`(31x)* 16\%`

Explanation:

Given: Discount offered is 16% on 20 or more job posting.

x dollars is charged on every job posting on website.

Now, lets find the discount on 31 job posting.

∴ Total cost on 31 job posting =
`\textrm{charges for one job posting}* \textrm{Total number of job posting}`

⇒ Total cost on 31 job posting=
`x* 31= \$ 31x`

As we know 16% discount been offered for 20 or more job posting

∴ Discount offered on 31 job posting =
`31x* 16\%`

Discount offered by JobFind to the employer is
`(31x)* 16\%`
