Answer:

$2278.846

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following commision steps :

8% on first $1000;

12% next $2000;

20% on sales above $3000

Recorded sales for a week :

Monday $1500.00

Tuesday $3000.00

Wednesday $ 970.00

Thursday $4563.81

Friday $2760.42

This assu es that commision is calculated after weekly sales:

Total:

(1500 + 3000 + 970 + 4563.81 + 2760.42)

= $12794.23

8% on first $1000

0.08 × $1000 = $80

12% of $2000 = $240

20% of $(12794.23 - 3000)

= 0.2 × 9794.23

= 1958.846

Total commision for the week :

$(80 + 240 + 1958.846)

= $2278.846

This rational expression is nonequivalent. 5x / 25x^4 ; x^3 / 5x^15<br> True or false?????

FromTheMoon [43]

It is nonequivalent. Figure it out this way. Think about what number has to be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of $\frac{5x}{25x^4}$ to get to $\frac{x^3}{5x^15}$ . It has to be the samee number for the one expression to be equivalent to the other. To get from 5x to x^3, we have to multiply by 1/5x^2. When we do that we get x^3. Good. Now we have to multiply the denominator by the same thing, 1/5x^2. $25x^4(\frac{1}{5}x^2)=5x^6$ . As you can see, they are not equivalent.
