Answer: e = 200 w + 0.04 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the earning in one week = 200 + 4% commission on her sales

Let the sales in w weeks is s,

Then the total amount e he get in w weeks,

e = 200 w + 4 % of s ( 1 % = 0.01 ⇒ 4 % = 0.04 )

⇒ e = 200 w + 0.04 s

Which is the required relationship between her sales in a given week and her weekly earning.

Earnings = $200 + 4% of Sales
e = 200 + 0.04*s or e = 200 + 0.04s. Hope this helps!

Need help with a math question

laiz [17]

Answer:

$x =38.7\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, the tangent of a x-angle is defined as

$tan(x) =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

For this case

$opposite = 8$

$adjacent = 10$

Therefore we have that

$tan(x) =\frac{8}{10}$

$x =arctan(\frac{8}{10})$

The answer is:

$x =38.7\°$

eratosthenes estimated the circumference of the earth as 250,000 stadia (the length of an athletic stadium). if we assume he use

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 16.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

estimated circumfrence of the earth = 250,000 stadia.

Actual value = 46,620km

expected Value = 40,030.3km

solution:

percentage error = actual value – expected value/ expected value * 100

= 46,620 – 40,030.3 / 40,030.3 * 100

= 6589.7 / 40,030.3 * 100

= 0.16462 * 100

= 16.5%

percentage error is 16.5%

A plane flies from Penthaven to Jackson and then back to Penthaven. When there is no wind, the round trip takes 6 hours and 24 m

NARA [144]

Answer:800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Round trip for Penthaven to Jackson takes 6 hr and 24 minutes in absence of wind

$t_1=6+\frac{24}{60}=6.4\ hr$

When Wind blows from Penthaven to Jackson it takes 6 hr and 40 min i.e.

$t_2=6+\frac{40}{60}=\frac{20}{3}\ hr$

Speed of wind $v=50\ mph$

Suppose x be the distance between Penthaven and Jackson and u be the speed of plane

So initially

$6.4=\frac{x}{u}+\frac{x}{u}$

$6.4=\frac{2x}{u}$

$x=3.2u \quad \ldots(i)$

When wind is blowing then,

$\Rightarrow \frac{20}{3}=\frac{x}{u+v}+\frac{x}{u-v}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{20}{3}=x[\frac{1}{u+50}+\frac{1}{u-50}]$

$\Rightarrow \frac{20}{3}=x[\frac{2u}{u^2-50^2}]\quad \ldots(ii)$

Substitute the value of x in $(ii)$

$\Rightarrow \frac{20}{3}=\frac{2u[3.2u]}{u^2-50^2}$

$\Rightarrow 10[u^2-50^2]=9.6u^2$

$\Rightarrow 0.4u^2=50^2\times 10$

$\Rightarrow u^2=\frac{50^2\times 10^2}{4}$

$\Rightarrow u=250\ mph$

Thus $x=3.2\times 250=800\ miles$
