Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each salesman earns his paycheck differently.

Salesman A works strictly on commission. He earns $65 per sale, with a maximum weekly commission of $1,300.

Salesman B earns a weekly base salary of $300, plus a commission of $40 per sale. There are no limits on the amount of commission he can earn.

Salesman C does not earn any commission. His weekly salary is $900.

Suppose Salesmen A and B have the same number of sales and earn the same amount in Week 4 of this month. How many sales must they both have had?

sales

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

a and b

65 per sale maximum commision 1300 so no base

40 per sale base 300

Set up equation:

[tex]65x=40x+300[/tex]

Solve:

[tex]25x=300[/tex]

[tex]x=12[/tex]

So they must have had 12 sales.

Answer:

The mean should be D. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean means the average which in this order (4, 5, 6) The direct middle is 5, making it the average since there are only 3 numbers in the first place.

You can mark out A (2) and B (3) instantly because they are lower than any of beginning numbers, and it's not C (4) as 'mean' doesn not mean the lowest, which leaves you with D (5)

a) What if the girl counts from 1 to 10?
b) What if the girl counts from 1 to 100?
c) What if the girl counts from 1 to 1000?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Index finger

(b) Ring finger

(c) Index finger

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking thumb as standard for the question.

Thumb series 1 , 9 , 17 ,25, 33......

general term for this

a(n) = 1 + (n-1)8

      = 1 + 8n -8

       = 8n -7

(a) For 1 to 10

     8n -7 = 10

     8n = 16+1 (remainder)

so the thumb is for 9 and the next is index finger.

10th = index finger.

(b) for 1 to 100

    8n - 7 = 100

      8n= 107

     107 = 13x 8 + 3(remainder)

so the third finger from thumb is Ring finger

100th = Ring finger

(c) 8n - 7 = 1000

   8n = 1007      

 1007= 125x8 +7 (remainder)

so the 7th finger next to thumb is Index finger

1000th = index finger

ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′. If A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3), what is the length of ?

Answers

Answer:

Fourth option is correct. The length of B'C' is 1 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of triangle ABC are A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3).

Distance formula:

The length of BC is 2 units.

It is given that ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′.

It means the ΔABC and ΔA′B′C′ are similar and corresponding sides of ΔA′B′C′ and ΔABC are proportional.

The scale factor is 0.5.

Therefore the length of B'C' is 1 unit and fourth option is correct

How do I solve this problem and check all the solutions?

Answers

Answer:

x-5=sqrt(2x+5)

then square both sides

x2-10x+25=2x+5

x2-8x+20=0

rest is trivial

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 ( subtract x from both sides )

- [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 - x ( divide all terms by - 1 )

[tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = x - 5 ( square both sides )

2x + 5 = (x - 5)²

2x + 5 = x² - 10x + 25 ( subtract 2x + 5 from both sides )

0 = x² - 12x + 20 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 2)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions

x = 2

2 - [tex]\sqrt{4+5}[/tex] = 2 - [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] = 2 - 3 = - 1 ≠ 5

Thus x = 2 is an extraneous solution

x = 10

10 - [tex]\sqrt{20+5}[/tex] = 10 - [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = 10 - 5 = 5 = right side

Thus x = 10 is the solution

Please write the two equations algebraically and then solve :)

Answers

Answer:x = 200 students

y = 300 non-students

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 10y = 4000

x + y = 500

Set y = 500-x

5x + 10(500-x) = 4000

5x + 5000-10x

-5x + 5000 = 4000

-5x = -1000

x = 200 students

y = 300 non-students

Answers

Answer:

(-9, π/5 + (2n + 1)π)

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding any integer multiple of 2π to the direction argument will result in full-circle rotations, which are identities, so this family is equivalent to the give coordinates:

(9, π/5 + 2nπ), for any integer n

Also, multiplying the radius by -1 is a point reflection, equivalent to a half-turn rotation. Then add π to the direction for another half turn, and the result is another identity. So this too is equivalent to the given coordinates:

(-9, π/5 + (2n + 1)π), for any integer n

what is the range of the function f(x)=-8x+13 when the domain is (-2,0,3)?

Answers

Answer:

The complete set of domain (x) and range values (y) is given by:

x                   y

-2                39

0                 13

3                  11

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the function

[tex]f(x)=-8x+13[/tex]

As we know that the range of a function consists of the entire set of all possible resulting values of the dependent variable commanly called y or f(x), once we have substituted the domain.

Now

As the x values are -2, 0, and 3. So, the domain interval is (-2,0,3).

Putting x = -2 in f(x) to determine the range for the value x = -2

[tex]f(x)=-8x+13[/tex]

[tex]f(-2)=-8(-2)+13=16+13=39[/tex]

Putting x = 0 in f(x) determine the range for  the value x = 0

[tex]f(x)=-8x+13[/tex]

[tex]f(0)=-8(0)+13=0+13=13[/tex]

Putting x = 0 in f(x) determine the range for the value x = 3

[tex]f(x)=-8x+13[/tex]

[tex]f(3)=-8(3)+13=-24+13=11[/tex]

Therefore, the complete set of domain (x) and range values (y) is given by:

x                   y

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 1 on both sides:          -2x < 6Divide both sides by -2:            x > -3

Here we see that any value greater than -3 would work as a solution of x.

Answer:

x>-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the variable. So, move the 1 onto the other side.

Because signs change when moved to the other side, + becomes - .

Then, subtracte. 7-1=6.

DIvide both sides by -2.

-2x/-2 is x, and 6/-2 is -3.
