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

Victor was having a hard time deciding which new vehicle he should buy. He decided to make the final decision based on the gas e

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Victor should buy Legend because it has a better unit rate

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for complete question.

To determine which car has more gas efficiency, we have to calculate the slope of each car.

Vehicle 1: Legend

Take any two corresponding points from the table

$(x_1,y_1) = (4,72)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (12,216)$

The slope is then calculated using;

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{216 - 72}{12 - 4}$

$m = \frac{144}{8}$

$m = 18$

This implies that this vehicle (legend) travels 18 miles per gallon of gas

Vehicle 2: Supreme

Take any two corresponding points from the graph

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,0)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (15,250)$

The slope is then calculated using;

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{250 - 0}{15 - 0}$

$m = \frac{250}{15}$

$m = 16.7$

This implies that this vehicle (supreme) travels 16.7 miles per gallon of gas

Base on the calculations above, Victor should buy Legend because it has a better unit rate

Answer:

The correct answer is: $\Delta BDE \cong \Delta BFK$ by rule ASA rule of congruence.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let us prove $\Delta BDE \cong \Delta BFK$ by rule ASA (rule of congruence).

Congruent side:

$\overline{BD} \cong \overline{BF}$ (Given)

Congruent angles:

1. By definition of perpendicular,

$\angle{BFK} = 90 \textdegree \ (Since \ \overline{FK} \ is \ perpendicular \ to \ \overline{AB} \ (\overline{FK} \perp \overline{AB} =Given))$

Also,

$\angle{BDE} = 90 \textdegree \ (Given)$

Therefore,

$\angle{BDE} \cong \angle{BFK}$

or you can say,

$\angle{D} \cong \angle{F}$

2. Common angle between $\Delta BDE \ and \ \Delta BFK$ is $\angle{B}$

In a nutshell, in $\Delta BDE$ ,

$\angle{B}$ (Angle)

$\overline{BD}$ (Side)

$\angle{BDE}$ (Angle)

are congruent to the following angle, side and angle of $\Delta BFK$ :

$\angle{B}$ (Angle)

$\overline{BF}$ (Side)

$\angle{BFK}$ (Angle)

Therefore, by ASA rule of congruence, we can say $\Delta BDE \cong \Delta BFK$ .

Since both triangles are congruent, the sides $\overline{ED}$ and $\overline{FK}$ are also congruent.
