Answer:

Commission = $375

Total earnings = $600

Step-by-step explanation:

He gets 3% of any sale he makes above %5500 which means his commission received on this sale is;

= 3% * $12500

= \frac{3}{100} * $12500

= 3* 125

= $375

This means his total earnings for the week will be the basic wage plus his commission

$225 + $375

= $600

Veronica traveled 562 miles to Venice, Florida. She drove 85 miles every day. On the last day of her trip she only drove 52 mile
dem82 [27]

Veronica traveled at 85 miles for 6 days and 52 miles on the final day making the total number of days traveled 7 days

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Veronica traveled 562 miles to Venice, Florida

She drove 85 miles every day

Let "d" be the number of days she drove 85 miles per day

On the last day of her trip she only drove 52 miles

Therefore, we frame a equation as,

Total miles = 85 miles every day for "d" days + last day

Total miles = 85(d) + 52

Total miles = 85d + 52

562 = 85d + 52

85d = 562 - 52

85d = 510

d = 6

She traveled at 85 miles for 6 days and 52 miles on the final day making the total number of days traveled 7

Places A and B are 100km apart from each other on a highway. A car starts from A and another from B at the same time. If they mo
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Speed of the first car = x = 35km/hr

Speed of the second car = 25km /hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of speeds of the cars is given below:-

Assume that the speed of the 1st car which is opening from A = x km/hr

and assume the Speed of the 2nd car which is starting from B

= y km/hr  

As we know that

Time = Distance ÷ Speed

So, the distance lies between two places i.e.  A and B are

80km d = 80 km

1. now when the car moves in the similar  direction

So, the corresponding speed of them = (x + y)km/hr

Time = 8hr

d = 80km

8 = \frac{80}{(x + y)}\\\\x + y = \frac{80}{8}\\\\x + y = 10 ..... (i)

2. when two cars moving in the inverse direction,

So, the corressponding speed = (x - y) km / hr

Time = 1 hr 20 minutes

That means

= (1 + 20 ÷ 60) hr

= (80 ÷ 60)

= 4/3 hr

d = 80km

Now

4 ÷ 3 = 80 ÷ (x -y)

x -y = (80 × 3) ÷ 4

x - y = 60 ..... (ii)

Now, we will sum equation 1 and equation 2 we will get

2x = 70

x = 35

now, Put x = 35 in (i) we will get

y = 25

Speed of the first car = x = 35km/hr

Speed of the second car = 25km /hr
