A salesperson is paid a flat rate plus a fixed percentage of her sales. Last month, she sold $16,000 worth of goods and was paid
Feliz [49]

Answer:

<em>She will be paid $1,350</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

y=mx+b, where m and b are constants.

The payments for a salesperson will be linearly modeled. There are two known points: When the sales were $16,000, the payment was $1,600. This makes the point (16,000;1,600).

We also know when the sales were $12,000, the payment was $1,400. The point is (12,000;1,400)

Let's use the points to find the values of m and b.

Using (16,000;1,600):

1,600=m*16,000+b

Using (12,000;1,400):

1,400=m*12,000+b

Subtracting both equations:

200=16,000m-12,000m

200=4,000m

Solving:

m=200/4,000=0.05

Using the first equation and the value of m:

1,600=0.05*16,000+b

1,600=800+b

Solving:

b=800

The equation is now complete:

y=0.05x+800

She sold $11,000 this month, so the payment is:

y=0.05\cdot 11,000+800

Y=550+800=1,350

She will be paid $1,350

In a contest to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar, Alice guessed 25;Betty, 18;Clare,23;Dotty,19;Edith,24;and Fran,17. Two
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<em>There are 21 jelly beans in the jar.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of jelly beans in the jar is  x

Two were off by 2, two were off by 3, two were off by 4. That means, the six guessed number will be:  (x+2), (x-2), (x+3), (x-3), (x+4), (x-4)

Given that, Alice guessed 25; Betty, 18; Clare, 23; Dotty, 19; Edith, 24; and Fran, 17.

So, the sum of all six guessed number will be:  25+18+23+19+24+17=126

Thus, the equation will be..........

(x+2)+(x-2)+(x+3)+(x-3)+(x+4)+(x-4)= 126\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x=\frac{126}{6}=21

So, the number of jelly beans in the jar is 21.
