Answer:
The owner makes $2 in sales per customer
Note: The "Amount of sales" label of the question is phrased poorly. s could be better labeled "profit from sales" or at least "Amount made from sales", etc.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you logically think about how the answer (now that you know it) relates to the question, it should make simple sense.
i.e. if you consider the first column where $24 is made from 12 customers, and divide the $24 made by the 12 customers, you'll see that each customer spends $2.
It is true that (x+2)(x+3) = x2 +5x + 6
Subtract 7a from both sides giving you 10=-5a and divide everything by 5. This gives you a=-2
Answer:
The way a proportion is set is as follows;
The Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica is then found as 800 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimension of the distance between Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 4 inches
The map scale = 1 inch to 200 miles
To figure out how many miles it is or the actual distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica, we have;
Therefore, we have;
(4 inches × 200 miles)/(1 inche) = Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica
Which gives;
Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 800 miles.
Answer:
a) P = 0.08s +200
b) $488
c) $6250
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
Your answer is correct. The commission rate is multiplied by the sales amount, and that product is added to the guaranteed pay to get the paycheck amount:
P = 0.08s +200
__
<h3>b)</h3>
Fill in 3600 for s and do the arithmetic.
P = 0.08×3600 +200 = 288 +200 = 488
The paycheck amount will be $488.
__
<h3>c)</h3>
Use the equation for part (a) and solve for P = 700.
700 = 0.08s +200
500 = 0.08s . . . . . . subtract 200
500/0.08 = s = 6250 . . . dollars; divide by the coefficient of s to get this
Sales would have to be $6250.
