Answer 1

Answer:

$(31x)\times 16\%$

Step-by-step 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 = $\textrm{charges for one job posting}\times \textrm{Total number of job posting}$

⇒ Total cost on 31 job posting= $x\times 31= \ 31x$

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

∴ Discount offered on 31 job posting = $31x\times 16\%$

Discount offered by JobFind to the employer is $(31x)\times 16\%$
