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.

Well I don't know ! 
Let's take a look and see:

The idea is that there could be more than one way
for a roll of the dice to land with the same number.  

-- If the sum is from 1-4, you get the point.
There are  6  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 1-4.

-- If the sum is from 5-8, Adam gets the point.
There are  20  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 5-8.

-- If the sum is 9-12, Lana gets the point.
There are  10  different ways for a roll of the dice to come up 9-12.

-- The game is not fair to all three of you.
-- Lana has a distinct advantage over you.
-- Adam has a big advantage over Lana.
-- Adam has an even bigger advantage over you.
-- You are at a big disadvantage.  (Notice that one of your
numbers ... 1 ... can never come up unless one of the dice
falls off of the table.)

I need help please and fast
patriot [66]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason it is 20% is due to the fact that if you put it in a form showing 250/250 = 100/100 and put another proportional rate underneath it showing 200/250 = x/100, you would have to multiply the numerator of the fraction on the left by the denominator of the fraction on the right to get 20000. Now you divide 250 from 20000 and get x for 80, resulting in 80/100 or 80%. All you have to do now is subtract 100-80, which equals 20, resulting in 20%.

Hope that helps!! It's my first time in answering so, ya. ;D goodluck!
