Answer:

8 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent number of minutes.

We have been given that Mike is biking to catch up with his sister who is already 1200 yards ahead of him. His sister is biking at a speed of 450 yards per minute.

So total distance covered by Mike's sister after m minutes would be 450m+1200.

Mike bikes at a speed of 600 yards per minute, so total distance covered by Mike in minutes would be 600m.

Now, we will equate both expressions to find minutes at which both distances will be equal as:

600x=450m+1200  

600x-450m=450m-450m+1200

150m=1200

\frac{150m}{150}=\frac{1200}{150}

m=8

Therefore, it will take after 8 minutes for Mike to catch his sister.

Mayra's monthly salary is $4,540 plus she earns an 8% commission on her sales each month. Mayra's sales for January were $30,000
lesantik [10]
Work out 8% of 30000

10% of 30000 is 3000

1% of 30000 is 300
2% of 30000 is 300x2=600

Therefore 10%-2%= 3000-600=2400

It therefore follows that Mayra earned 4540 + 2400 = 6940 for January

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

<h2>          y = 10x + 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b, where <em>m</em> is a slope and<em> b</em> is y-intercept.

m = 10

b = 4

So, the equation:  y = 10x + 4
