The equation that best represents the total earnings for the salesman is letter c which is e=40,000+200 xc
It is because, in order to get the full earnings, you have to add the base salary to the commission that the salesman receives. Whereas, the $40,000 is attached to the commission where the $200 is multiplied to c (every car the salesman sells
The mid point is 15 because it is in the middle of 10 and 20
Given u/7 - 1 = 7 and plugging in values for u,
For u = 28; 28/7 - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3; No
For u = -49; -49/7 - 1 = -7 - 1 = -8; No
For u = 42; 42/7 - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5; No
For u = 0; 0/7 - 1 = -1; No
Another way to find out which value would be a solution to u/7 - 1 = 7 is to solve for u.
u/7 - 1 = 7
u/7 = 7 + 1
u/7 = 8
u = 8*7
u = 56
The only solution to this equation is when u = 56.
