Answer: f(x) = 7.50x + 315

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent the number of hours

Given: rate = 7.50,     commission = 4.5%(7,000) = 315

Equation: f(x) = 7.50x + 315

Table:

\boxed{\begin{array}{c||r|c||c}\underline{\text{Hours}}&\underline{\text{Wage}}&\underline{\text{Commission}}&\underline{\text{Weekly Earnings}}\\30&7.5(30)=225.00&315&540.00\\31&7.5(31)=232.50&315&547.50\\32&7.5(32)=240.00&315&555.00\\33&7.5(33)=247.50&315&562.50\\34&7.5(34)=255.00&315&570.00\\35&7.5(35)=262.50&315&577.50\\36&7.5(36)=270.00&315&585.00\\37&7.5(37)=277.50&315&592.50\\38&7.5(38)=285.00&315&600.00\\39&7.5(39)=292.50&315&607.50\\40&7.5(40)=300.00&315&615.00\end{array}}

Solve the equation 5y-6=10
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

y = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5y + -6 = 10

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 5y = 10

Solving

-6 + 5y = 10

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '6' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 6 + 5y = 10 + 6

Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0

0 + 5y = 10 + 6

5y = 10 + 6

Combine like terms: 10 + 6 = 16

5y = 16

Divide each side by '5'.

y = 3.2

Simplifying

y = 3.2

Find the value of x that maximized the volume of the following:
Shtirlitz [24]

Check the picture below.

as you can see, the graph of the volume function comes from below goes up up up, reaches a U-turn then goes down down, U-turns again then back up to infinity.

the maximum is reached at the close up you see in the picture on the right-side.

Why we don't use a higher value from the graph since it's going to infinity?

well, "x" is constrained by the lengths of the box, specifically by the length of the smaller side, namely 5 - 2x, so whatever "x" is, it can't never zero out the smaller side, and that'd happen when x = 2.5, how so? well 5 - 2(2.5) = 0, so "x" whatever value is may be, must be less than 2.5, but more than 0, and within those constraints the maximum you see in the picture is obtained.

A shopkeeper bought some eggs at ¢15 each. Six of them were broken while the rest were sold at ¢20 each. If he made a profit of
zvonat [6]
In the given problem it is already stated that the cost of each eggs is 15 cent. Out the total eggs bought 6 were broken. The rest of the eggs were sold for 20 cents each and the profit made was $4.80.
Cost of the 6 broken eggs = (6 * 0.15)
                                           = 0.9 cents
Let us assume that the number of eggs bought = x
Then we can write the equation as
0.2x - (0.15x - 0.9) = 4.80
0.2x - 0.15x + 0.9 = 4.80
0.05x = 4.80 - 0.9
0.05x = 3.9
x = 3.9/0.05
   = 78
So the number of eggs bought by him is 78
