Piper would make $557.5 in a week in which she made $2050 in sales

<h3>What are linear equations?</h3>

Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change. Note that the constant average rates of change can also be regarded as the slope or the gradient

<h3>How to determine the solution to the system?</h3>

A system of linear equations is a collection of at least two linear equations.

In this case, the given parameters are:

Guarantee fee = $250 per week

Commission = 15%

Let the total sales be x and the total amount be y

So, we have:

y = Guarantee fee + Commission * x

This gives

y = 250 + 15% * x

The total sales is $2050

This gives

y = 250 + 15% * 2050

Evaluate

y = 557.5

Hence, Piper would make $557.5 in a week in which she made $2050 in sales

What is the solution of 5/2-7= 3/4x+14,
Sidana [21]

Answer:

D) x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\sf{\dfrac{5}{2}x-7=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14 \implies \dfrac{10}{4}x-7=\dfrac{3}{4}x+14}

1. Multiply both sides by 4

\sf{4\left(\dfrac{10}{4}x-7\right)=4\left(\dfrac{3}{4}x+14\right)}\\\\\implies 10x-28=3x+56

2. Subtract 3x from both sides

\sf{10x-3x-28=3x-3x+56}\\\\\implies 7x-28=56

3. Add 28 to both sides

\sf{7x-28+28=56+28}\\\\\implies 7x=84

4. Divide both sides by 7 to isolate the variable:

\sf{\dfrac{7x}{7}=\dfrac{84}{7}}\\\\\implies x=12

Ariel deposited $100 into a bank account. Each friday she will withdraw 10% of the money in the account to spend. Ariel thinks h
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: Yes, I agree. $10 will be withdrawn every Friday, resulting in the $100 she deposited being completely gone after 10 withdrawals.


Step-by-step explanation: You will want to find the amount of money being taken from the $100 withdrawal first. Turn the percent into a decimal, which should result to 0.10. Take this decimal and multiply it with 100 to get the amount of money being taken out of the account each week, which should be $10. I would go about answering this by multiplying the $10 by the amount of 10 withdrawals. This would result in 100. This answers the question because we are trying to see if 10 withdrawals will completely deplete the $100 in the account.
