Kent and Bradley both work at a car dealership. Kent makes $10/hour + 3% on the amount of sales he completes. Bradley only makes

$7/hr but he makes 4% on the amount of his sales. If both salesmen worked 40 hours one week and had $78,000 in sales, what was the difference (in dollars) of their paychecks?

Answer: There is difference of $660 in their paychecks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours in one week they worked = 40

Amount of sales = $78000

Kent makes $10 per hour plus 3% on the amount of sales .

So, the equation for Kent becomes,

10\times 40+\frac{3}{100}\times 78000\\\\=400+3\times 780\\\\=400+2340\\\\=\$2740

Similarly, Bradley only makes $7 per hour but he makes 4% on the amount of his sales .

So, the equation for Bradley becomes,

7\times 40+\frac{4}{100}\times 78000\\\\=280+4\times 780\\\\=280+3120\\\\=\$3400

hence, the difference between of their paychecks is given by

\$3400-\$2740\\\\=\$660

Therefore, there is difference of $660 in their paychecks.

Answer:

<em>The Graph is shown below</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Graph of a Function</u>

Given the function:

\displaystyle y=g(x)=-\frac{3}{2}(x-2)^2

It's required to plot the graph of g(x). Let's give x some values:

x={-2,0,2,4,6}

And calculate the values of y:

\displaystyle y=g(-2)=-\frac{3}{2}(-2-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}(-4)^2==-\frac{3}{2}*16=-24

Point (-2,-24)

\displaystyle y=g(0)=-\frac{3}{2}(0-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}(-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}*4=-6

Point (0,-6)

\displaystyle y=g(2)=-\frac{3}{2}(2-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}(0)^2=0

Point (2,0)

\displaystyle y=g(4)=-\frac{3}{2}(4-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}(2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}*4=-6

Point (4,-6)

\displaystyle y=g(6)=-\frac{3}{2}(6-2)^2=-\frac{3}{2}(4)^2=-\frac{3}{2}*16=-24

Point (6,-24)

The graph is shown in the image below
