Distribute on the left side
7.4a+22.2=3.2a+43.2
Subtract 3.2a from both sides
4.2a+22.2=43.2
Subtract 22.2 from both sides
4.2a=21
Divide both sides by 4.2
a=5

Which number line shows the solution set for |p-3|=9?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Option b

p = -6 or p = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value is a function that transforms any value x into a positive number.

Therefore, for the function f(x) = |x|  x> 0 for all real numbers.

Then the equation:

|p-3| = 9 has two cases

(p-3) = 9    if h > 3  (i)

-(p-3) = 9    if h < 3 (ii)

We solve the case (i)

p = 9 + 3\\p = 12

We solve the case (ii)

-p +3 = 9\\p = 3-9\\p = -6

Then the solution is:

p = -6 or p = 12

A salesperson is paid a flat rate plus a fixed percentage of her sales. Last month, she sold $16,000 worth of goods and was paid
Feliz [49]

Answer:

<em>She will be paid $1,350</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

y=mx+b, where m and b are constants.

The payments for a salesperson will be linearly modeled. There are two known points: When the sales were $16,000, the payment was $1,600. This makes the point (16,000;1,600).

We also know when the sales were $12,000, the payment was $1,400. The point is (12,000;1,400)

Let's use the points to find the values of m and b.

Using (16,000;1,600):

1,600=m*16,000+b

Using (12,000;1,400):

1,400=m*12,000+b

Subtracting both equations:

200=16,000m-12,000m

200=4,000m

Solving:

m=200/4,000=0.05

Using the first equation and the value of m:

1,600=0.05*16,000+b

1,600=800+b

Solving:

b=800

The equation is now complete:

y=0.05x+800

She sold $11,000 this month, so the payment is:

y=0.05\cdot 11,000+800

Y=550+800=1,350

She will be paid $1,350
