His hourly rate is $13.75.

Let x be the hourly rate.  Since he works 20 hours that week, the hourly wages are given by 20x.  We add to that his commission, which is 16% of the $1500 in sales, or 0.16(1500).  This totals to 515:

20x + 0.16(1500) = 515
20x + 240 = 515

Subtract 240 from both sides:
20x + 240 - 240 = 515 - 240
20x = 275

Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 275/20
x = 13.75.

The area of a circle is 81 ft 2 . What is the π circumference? Leave in terms of Pi.
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

10.2π

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Area of circle=  81 ft^2

Also, the expression for the area of a circle is

A=πr^2

substitute

81=3.142*r^2

r^2= 81/3.142

r^2= 25.77

square both sides

r= √25.77

r= 5.1

Also, the expression for the circumference is

C= 2πr

substitute

C= 2*π*5.1

C= 10.2π

Hence the circumference is 10.2π

Need to use a the table given to find the rate of change in fruit flies per day over the given intervals. Not sure how to use th
Aleksandr [31]
Given a table, with an input (x) and output (y) , you could actually use the slope formula to get the rate of change because slope is the same thing as rate of change. If you recall, the slope formula is (y2-y1)÷(x2-x1)
Just pick two points from the chart and plug them in and that is your rate of change
