Answer:

16 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

Option 1 . Admission fee = $10

                Each ride = $0.50

Option 2 . Admission fee = $6

                Each ride = $0.75

Let no. of rides be x

So, cost of ride according to option 1 = 0.50x

So, total cost after having x rides according to option 1 :

= 10+0.50x  ---1

Cost of ride according to option 2 = 0.75x  

So, total cost after having x rides according to option 2 :

= 6+0.75x  --2

Now to find the beak even point i.e. having the same cost

Equate 1 and 2

10+0.50x=6+ 0.75x

10-6= 0.75x-0.50x

4= 0.25x

\frac{4}{0.25} =x

16=x

Thus for 16 rides , the two options have the same cost .

Hence the break even point is 16 rides

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

the 3 angles form a straight angle and sum to 180°

sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + x + x = 180 , that is

5x = 180 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 36

A salesperson receives step commission on sales calculated as follows: * 8% on first $1000 _________________ * 12% next $2000 __
Sonja [21]

Step-by-step explanation: Assuming the commission is calculated on a weekly basis and no sales were made on Saturday or Sunday:

Total Sales = $12794.23

8% of $1000 = $80

12% of $2000 = $240

20% of $9794.23 = $1958.85

Total = $2278.85
