The equation for this problem would be

Total Earnings = Base Pay + 12% (Sales)

Substituting the known values,

Total Earnings = $19800 + 0.12($27200)
Total Earnings = $23,064

Thus, the answer is letter C.

I hope I was able to answer it clearly. Have a good day.

Suppose a lake contains blue and green algae. The blue algae has an initial mass of 20 kg and doubles its mass every hour. The g
loris [4]

Answer:  1) D

2) C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The blue algae has an initial mass of 20 kg and doubles its mass every hour. Then after t hours, the mass of blue algae is

2. The green algae has an initial mass of 160 kg and grows at a constant rate of 0.20 kg per minute. Then after t hours (60t minutes), the mass of green algae is

Part I) At t=3:

The mass of green algae has 196-160=36 kg more mass at 3 hours.

Part II) At t=4:

The blue algae has 320-208=112 kg more mass at 4 hours.

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

25.5

Step-by-step explanation:

first find angle E.

remember, all angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.

E = 180 - 90 - 20 = 70 degrees

now we use the law of sines.

ED/sin(20) = DC/sin(70) = EC/sin(D)

EC = x

sin(D) = sin(90) = 1

24/sin(70) = x/1 = x

x = 25.5

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below? Check all that apply. (3x - 5)2 = 19 O A. x= 19+ olm B. x= 119 +5 I
asambeis [7]

Solution

(3x-5)^2=19

For this case we can take square root in both sides and we have:

3x-5=\pm\sqrt[]{19}

And solving for x we got:

x=\frac{5\pm\sqrt[]{19}}{3}

then the solutions for this case are:

B and E
