Todd is trying to decide between two jobs. Job A pays $400 per week plus a 20% commission on everything sold. Job B pays $500 per week plus a 15% commission on everything sold
We start off with 50 as our room temperature.
Then we subtract off 4h to indicate the temperature drops 4 degrees per hour
You can think of it like this
1 hour = drop by 4 degrees
h hours = drop by 4h degrees (multiply both sides by h)
So the expression 50-4h represents the temperature after h hours. We want this to be below 32, so 50-4h < 32 is the inequality we're after
Solving for h leads to
50-4h < 32
-4h < 32-50 ... subtract 50 from both sides
-4h < -18
h > -18/(-4) ... divide both sides by -4; note the inequality sign flips
h > 4.5
If you go beyond 4.5 hours, then the temperature will be below 32 degrees
notes:
- 4.5 hours = 4 hours, 30 minutes = 270 minutes
- the inequality sign flips whenever you divide both sides by a negative number
Answer:
the answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
100*20 + 1/2*(60-20)*(100 - 12)
=2000 + 1/2*40*88
