A sales person is paid a weekly salary of $760, plus a commission of 7.5% of all her sales for the week. Express her weekly inco
Elis [28]

Answer:

1. We can see that salesperson's weekly income is the sum of her constant weekly salary ($760) and a commission which is variable and depends on her weekly sales.

So, if we say that y is her weekly income and x is her weekly sales, we can write this as:

y = 760 + 0.075x

Note that we had to change percentage to decimal number dividing it by 100.

2  Since for each value of x there is only one corresponding value of y, we can say that this is a function. For any value of x we input there is only one solution we get - that is the main feature of function and a way to tell if something is really a function.

Since this is a function, it can also be written as:

f(x) = 760 + 0.075x

3. Domain of a function is, basically, set of all values of x for which the function can work. That practically means that, since x is weekly sale, it can not be negative (one cannot make -$500 sale, for example). However, it is possible that she doesn't make a sale one week, making it possible for x to be 0. Also, the value of her sales doesn't have to be integer (it is quite possible that she makes $673.50 sale).

All this means that appropriate domain for this function are positive real numbers including 0.

The change in altitude of a bird after 2 __ 1 2 seconds was –41 __ 1 4 feet. What was the average change in altitude of the bird
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Average\ Change = -1\frac{7}{10} ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Altitude\ Change = -4\frac{1}{4} \ ft

Time = 2\frac{1}{2}\ s

Required

Determine the average change

This is calculated as follows:

Average\ Change = \frac{Altitude\ Change}{Time}

This gives:

Average\ Change = \frac{-4\frac{1}{4}}{2\frac{1}{2}}

Average\ Change = -4\frac{1}{4}/2\frac{1}{2}

Convert to improper fractions

Average\ Change = -\frac{17}{4}/\frac{5}{2}

Convert to multiplication

Average\ Change = -\frac{17}{4}*\frac{2}{5}

Average\ Change = -\frac{17}{2}*\frac{1}{5}

Average\ Change = -\frac{17}{10}

Average\ Change = -1\frac{7}{10} ft/s
