The straight commission offer must be at least as good as the straight commission offer, which requires sales of $12,000 in a week.

<h3>What is Straight Commission?</h3>

Straight Commission: Straight commission can also be referred to as commission-only because it is the only pay an employee receives. There is no base salary or hourly wage included in this pay structure. All compensation is based on an agreed-upon percentage of sales.

Get the complete straight commission offer as the first step.

The straight total commission can be expressed as follows:

A=R x T

A = straight total commission

R=commission rate

T=total sales

In our example,

A=0.06t=0.06 t is replaced by

R=6%=6/100=0.06

T=t in equation 1.

in the 2nd step, the second offer's total value

The total sum of the second offer can be expressed as follows:

A=F+(RT)

A=the amount of income the second company offers

F=weekly fixed wage

R = commission percentage

T = total sales

F in our instance equals $240 weekly.

in the 3rd step

R=4%=4/100=0.04

T=t is replacing A=240+(0.04t)=0.04 t+240 is in equation 2

now equate equations 1 and 2

0.06 t=0.04 t+240

(0.06 t-0.04 t)=240

0.02 t=240

t=240/0.02=12,000

The straight commission offer must be at least as good as the straight commission offer, which requires sales of $12,000 in a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is therefore a special case of an isosceles triangle having not just two, but all three sides equal

The mean absolute deviation measures which of the following from the data given?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Variability

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean absolute deviation (MAD) of a data set is the average distance between each data value and the mean. Mean absolute deviation is a way to describe variation in a data set. Mean absolute deviation helps us get a sense of how "spread out" the values in a data set are.

Each unit on the grid stands for one miles determine two ways to calculate the distance from josie's house to annies
Novosadov [1.4K]
I encountered this problem before but it had an accompanying image and list of answer choices.

I'll attach the image and include the list of options. 

Each unit on the grid stands for one mile. Determine two ways to calculate the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
A) Distance Formula and Slope Formula
B) Midpoint Formula and Slope Formula
C) Distance Formula and Midpoint Formula
<span>D) Distance Formula and Pythagorean Theorem
</span>
My answer is: D.) Distance formula and Pythagorean Theorem.

When looking at the image, I can visualize a right triangle. I'll simply get the measure of the long and short legs and solve for the hypotenuse. 
Since the distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, it can be used to determine the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
