Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:
We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional
We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~
All parabolas?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you want to understand that every time a radio wave goes 300,000,000 meters a second passes, literally what meter per second means. of course it doesn't go that far, it goes 384,000 one way and then the same distance back, which makes 768,000. Under a third of the distance to make 1 second, so it will be less than one second.
You also want to understand the formula for speed. speed = distance / time. Whch also means, to find time you can change it to be time = distance / speed. And hey, we have distance and speed. 768,000 / 300,000,000 = .00256, I'll leave the significant figures to you unless you need help with them. but that's .00256 of a second. or .00256 s
His basic salary is $ 2,500, his commission on sales is 3% (on sales only)
At the end of te month he got $3,040
Let x be the TOTAL sales performed during this month, so the money generated from sales (only) is (x).(3%), Hence the equation:
2500 + (x).(3%) = 3040
2500 + x(0.03) = 3040
x(0.03) = 3040-2500
x(0.03) = 540
and x = 540/0.03
x = $18,000
