You earn $100 plus 1/5 of your sales each week. What dollar amount of sales do you need this week to earn $600?

Mathematics

Answer:

You'll need $2,500 in sales this week to end up with $600 in income for the week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the dollar amount of the total sales for the week.

The commission earned on such sales is 1/5, or 0.20, of s:

Commission:  0.20s

Then the correct expression for your weekly income is:

$100 + 0.20s = $600.

Solving for s, subtract $100 from both sides.  Then 0.20s = $500, and through division we get  s = $2,500.

You'll need $2,500 in sales this week to end up with $600 in income for the week.

What is the midpoint of BC
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

(5, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula

[ 0.5(x₁ + x₂ ), 0.5(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = B(2, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = C(8, 11)

midpoint = [ 0.5(2 + 8), 0.5(1 + 11) ] = (5, 6 )

What is the area of the square adjacent to the third side of the triangle?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The area of the square adjacent to the third side of the triangle is 11 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the area of two squares, one being 33 units² the other 44 units². A square is present with all sides being equal, and hence the length of the square present with an area of 33 units² say, should be x² = 33 - if x = the length of one side. Let's make it so that this side belongs to the side of the triangle, to our convenience,

x² = 33,

x = \sqrt{33} .... this is the length of the square, but also a leg of the triangle. Let's calculate the length of the square present with an area of 44 units². This would also be the hypotenuse of the triangle.

x² = 44,

x = \sqrt{44} .... applying pythagorean theorem we should receive the length of a side of the unknown square area. By taking this length to the power of two, we can calculate the square's area, and hence get our solution.

Let x = the length of the side of the unknown square's area -

\sqrt{(44)}^2 = x^2 + \sqrt{33}^2,

x = \sqrt{11} ... And \sqrt{11} squared is 11, making the area of this square 11 units².

Mr. Jackson sold 3 computer monitors in the first year. In the second year, he sold 4 times as many monitors as in the first yea
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

There wasn't really a question here but for both the answers is

for year 2 we got 12 sales

for year 3 we got 18 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

since the first year Mr.Jackson sold 3 computer monitors then in the second year he must've multiplied the times he had sold it which means 4 x 3 which equals 12

as well as the third year, on the third year he sold 6 times the first year so it means 6 x 3 which equals 18
