Answer:
1. We can see that salesperson's weekly income is the sum of her constant weekly salary ($760) and a commission which is variable and depends on her weekly sales.
So, if we say that y is her weekly income and x is her weekly sales, we can write this as:
y = 760 + 0.075x
Note that we had to change percentage to decimal number dividing it by 100.
2 Since for each value of x there is only one corresponding value of y, we can say that this is a function. For any value of x we input there is only one solution we get - that is the main feature of function and a way to tell if something is really a function.
Since this is a function, it can also be written as:
f(x) = 760 + 0.075x
3. Domain of a function is, basically, set of all values of x for which the function can work. That practically means that, since x is weekly sale, it can not be negative (one cannot make -$500 sale, for example). However, it is possible that she doesn't make a sale one week, making it possible for x to be 0. Also, the value of her sales doesn't have to be integer (it is quite possible that she makes $673.50 sale).
All this means that appropriate domain for this function are positive real numbers including 0.
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
You didn't state the sentences but let me help out based on the information given.
Number of new motion toys = 12
Number of batteries used by each toy = 3
Since N represents the total number of batteries he need, the value of N will be:
= Number of toys × Number of batteries used by each toy
= 12 × 3
= 36
That means N equals 36.
Answer:
length = 36 ft; width = 12 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be x.
The length is 3x.
The perimeter is the sum of two lengths and two widths, and it equals 96 ft.
3x + 3x + x + x = 96
8x = 96
x = 12
Width = x = 12 ft
Length = 3x = 3(12 ft) = 36 ft
