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.

A construction worker drops a hammer from a height of 25 m.
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Time at which the hammer reaches the ground is 2.3 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the formula as, h(t)=-4.9t^2+v_{o}+h_{o}.

It is known that, when height i.e. h_{o}=25 meter, then velocity v_{o}=0 m/sec.

So, we get the formula as, h(t)=-4.9t^2+25.

Now, when the hammer hits the ground, the height h_{o}=0 meter.

Thus, we have,

h(t)=-4.9t^2+25

⇒ 0=-4.9t^2+25

⇒ 4.9t^2=25

⇒ t^2=5.1

i.e. t= ±2.3 sec

Since, time cannot be negative.

So, t= 2.3 sec

Hence, the time at which the hammer reaches the ground is 2.3 seconds.
