The right answer is Option D: S>$300,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Base salary of Alan = $18000

Commission = 9% = \frac{9}{100} = 0.09

Amount Alan wants to earn = $45000 or more

Let,

s be the worth he needs to sell.

Therefore,

Base salary + Commission*Total sales>Amount Alan wants to earn

18000+0.09s>45000

0.09s>45000-18000\\0.09s>27000

Dividing both sides by 0.09

\frac{0.09s}{0.09}>\frac{27000}{0.09}\\s>300000

Alan must sold items that worth at least $300,000.

The right answer is Option D: S>$300,000.

Looking at the picture attached, you will notice that on one side, we have a side of length 7+5=12. Next, we have a side length of 4+5+2=11. Hence, as length*width=area for a rectangle, this is the overall area of the rectangle. Next, in the picture, there are clearly two sides taken out - a 2x5 as well as a 4x5 rectangle, which are subtracted from the total area, resulting in 11*12-2*5-4*5

eimsori [14]

Answer:

  Ben's

Step-by-step explanation:

If E is the amount of energy that each full set of panels produces, then ...

  3 of Ismael's 5 panels produce 3/5E

  4 of Ben's 6 panels produce 4/6E

We can compare these fractions when they have a common denominator.

  3/5E = 18/30E . . . . energy from Ismael's panels

  4/6E = 20/30E . . .  energy from Ben's panels

  18/30 < 20/30 . . . . so Ben's panels are producing more energy

What are the solutions of the inequality (x-3)(x+5)&lt;=0
GarryVolchara [31]

Assuming that the inequality you were going for was a ≤, set both polynomials less than or equal to 0.

x - 3 ≤ 0

x + 5 ≤ 0

For the first equation add 3 to both sides of the inequality. For the second, subtract 5 from both sides.

x ≤ 3

x ≤ - 5

These would be your solutions I guess, however, if you want to expand upon that, your actual answer is (- ∞, - 5] because if you were to plot these two inequalities on a number line, that is where the overlap would occur.

Which graph describes the relation {(5, 1), (1, –2), (0, –1), (–3, 2)}?
UNO [17]

The graph represents a relation provided  R =  {(5, 1), (1, –2), (0, –1), (–3, 2)}

<h3>What is an ordered double?</h3>

It is defined as a representation of coordinates in a two-dimensional coordinate plane. It has a list of two elements in it, such as (x, y).

We have a relation:

R = {(5, 1), (1, –2), (0, –1), (–3, 2)}

We can represent it on a coordinate plane as (x, y)

After plotting on a coordinate plane we will get a graph of a relation

R =  {(5, 1), (1, –2), (0, –1), (–3, 2)}

Thus, the graph represents a relation provided  R =  {(5, 1), (1, –2), (0, –1), (–3, 2)}
