Answer:

$2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Darcy's weekly earning = $982 plus 18% commission on food sales

Harper's weekly earning = $807 plus 25% commision

amount of food sales will result in Darcy and Harper earning the same amount for the week

Let amount of food sales = f

Darcy's earning = Harper's earning

(982 + 18%*f) = (807 + 25% * f)

(982 + 0.18f) = (807 + 0.25f)

982 + 0.18f = 807 + 0.25f

982 - 807 = 0.25f - 0.18f

175 = 0.07f

f = 175 / 0.07

f = 2500

Hence amount of food sales that will result in both Darcy and Harper earning the same amount = $2500

The triangles are similar by:

Suppose f(x,y)=x/y, P=(−1,4) and v=4i−1j.A. Find the gradient of f.∇f=i+ jNote: Your answers should be expressions of x and y; e

Mama L [17]

Answer:

1) gradient of f = (1/y)i+(-x/y^2)j

2) rate of change of f at P in direction of v = i - 1/16 j

3) maximum rate of change at P= (√17)/16

4) unit vector of maximum rate of change = 4/√17 i + 1/√17 j

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation can be found in the attached picture

Note:

Since the gradient vector represents the direction of maximum change:

3) The maximum rate of change is the modulus of the gradient vector

4) The unit direction vector of maximum rate of change is the unit gradient vector.
