Amelia and Jayden work at a furniture store. Amelia is paid $185 per week plus 9.5% of her total sales in dollars, xx, which can

be represented by g(x)=185+0.095x. Jayden is paid $311 per week plus 8.5% of his total sales in dollars, xx, which can be represented by f(x)=311+0.085x Determine the value of xx, in dollars, that will make their weekly pay the same

Answer:

The weekly sales must be $12,600

Step-by-step explanation:

if their pay is the same, the equations have to be equal

amelia = jayden

185 +.095x = 311 +.085x

subtract  .085x from each side

185 +.095x-.085x = 311 +.085x-.085x

185+.01x = 311

subtract 185 from each side

185-185+.01x = 311-185

.01x = 126

divide by .01

.01x/.01 = 126/.01

x = 12600

Find S18 for geometric series given a5=-6 and a2= -48
Ganezh [65]

an = a1r^(n-1)

a5 = a1 r^(5-1)

-6 =a1 r^4


a2 = a1 r^(2-1)

-48 = a1 r


divide

-6 =a1 r^4

----------------    yields   1/8 = r^3      take the cube root  or each side

-48 = a1 r                     1/2 = r


an = a1r^(n-1)

an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)

-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1

divide by 1/2

-96 = a1


an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)


the sum

Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]

S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]

       =-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]

      = 192 * [-131071/131072]

 approximately -192

saul85 [17]

Answer:

130ft

Step-by-step explanation:

5x -5.5 = -27.5

5x -5.5 = 27.5 + 10 = 37.5

27.5 x 2 = 55

27.5 + 10 = 37.5 x 2 = 75

55 + 75 = 130 ft
