To manage a rental property, a property manager charges $59 per month plus 8% of the rent. a) write an equation to represent the total monthly fees charged by the property manager. b) if jack pays the property manager $165 each month, what is the monthly rent on his property? c) if jack raises the rent on the house to $1,495, how much more will he pay the property manager each month?

A property manager charges $59 per month plus 8% of the rent.

Fixed charge = $5

Let x be the monthly rent

8% of rent =

a)So, an equation to represent the total monthly fees charged by the property manager =

b)  if jack pays the property manager $165 each month, what is the monthly rent on his property?

c)if jack raises the rent on the house to $1,495, how much more will he pay the property manager each month?

8% of 1325 = $ 106

8% of 1495 = $119.6

He will pay more = $119.6-$ 106=$13.6

Hence he will pay $13.6 more .

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.
