Answer: d.3,500 + 0.06x > 4,000 + 0.04x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write each inequality:

Jose earns a monthly salary of $3,500 plus a 6% commission on his sales, x.

So, his monthly earnings must be equal to the sum of the fixed monthly salary ($3500) plus the product of the number of sales (x) and the commission percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

So:

Jose’s earnings: 3,500 + x (6/100)

Jose’s earnings: 3,500 + 0.06x

Maris earns a monthly salary of $4,000 plus a 4% commission on her sales.

So, her monthly earnings must be equal to the sum of the fixed monthly salary ($4000) plus the product of the number of sales (x) and the commission percentage in decimal form (divided by 100):

Maris’ earnings: 4000+ x (4/100)

Maris’ earnings: 4000+ 0.04 x

Since Jose's earnings must be greater than Maris' earnings

3,500 + 0.06x >4000+ 0.04 x

Answer:

E.

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you would add 8 to both sides to get

then divide both sides by 3

w = (t + 8) / 3

So the answer is E.

Answer:

The total points by Washington High School =  162 points

The total points by  Johnson High School   =  159 points

The total points by  Roosevelt High School =  108 points

The total points by  Lewis High School =  196 points

Washington High School  has WON the meet.

Johnson High School came second.

The difference in the points= 2 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Points awarded for first place = 10 points

Points awarded for second place = 8 points

Points awarded for third place = 7 points

About Washington High School

10 first places  = 10 x ( 10) = 100 points

6 second places  = 6 x ( 8) = 48 points

2 first places  = 2 x ( 7) = 14 points

So, the total points by  Washington High School  = Sum of all points  

=  100 + 48 + 14   =  162 points     .............. (1)

About Johnson High School

8 first places  = 8 x ( 10) = 80 points

9 second places  = 9 x ( 8) = 72 points

1 first places  = 1 x ( 7) = 7 points

So, the total points by  Johnson High School  = Sum of all points  

=  80 + 72 + 7   =  159 points    .............. (2)

About Roosevelt High School

4 first places  = 4 x ( 10) = 40 points

5 second places  = 5 x ( 8) = 40 points

4 first places  = 4 x ( 7) = 28 points

So, the total points by  Roosevelt High School  = Sum of all points  

=  40 + 40 + 28   =  108 points  .............. (3)

About Lewis High School

3 first places  = 3 x ( 10) = 30 points

3 second places  = 3 x ( 8) = 24 points

6 first places  = 6 x ( 7) = 42 points

So, the total points by  Lewis High School  = Sum of all points  

=  30 + 42 + 24   =  96 points      .............. (4)

Now, comparing all four equation, we get that:

Washington High School  has WON the meet.

Johnson High School came second.

The difference in the points  = 162 - 159 = 2 points
