His total sales were "x"

now, we know that 3.5% of "x" plus 5% of "x", will add up to his total commission, including sales of 6500 or less or more

so the commission for 6500 or less, is 3.5% of "x" or (3.5/100)*x -> 0.035x
the commission for above 6500 is 5% or (5/100) * x --> 0.05x

we know, that both commissions added together, are $415

thus

0.035x + 0.05x = 415  <-----   solve for "x"

A cylindrical metal pipe has a diameter of 8.4 millimeters and a height of 10 millimeters. A hole cut out of the center has a di
zhannawk [14.2K]

To solve this problem, we simply use the equation of volume for hollow cylinders:

V = π h (R^2 – r^2)

where V is volume, h is height = 10, R is outer radius = 8.4/2 = 4.2, r is inner radius = 6/2 = 3

 

V = π (10) (4.2^2 – 3^2)

<span>V = 86.4π = 271.43 mm^3</span>

Suppose g (x) is increasing and concave up everywhere and g(A)=7, gprime(A)=13, h=.01
rewona [7]
First we need a point (x,y) : (A, 7) 
<span>Now slope (from f'(A)) = 15 </span>
<span>Next, the equation (using point slope formula) </span>

<span>y - 7 = 15 (x -A) </span>
<span>y = 15 (x - A) + 7 </span>

<span>Now in the x spot we put 'A-.01' </span>
<span>y = 15 ( A - .01 - A) +7= 15(-.01) +7 = -.15+ 7 = 6.85 
hope this helps</span>

nydimaria [60]
Well. If you get 29% of 5 cars that is 145%. This was a little confusing but I am defiantly sure it is correct. I like to use simpler numbers to see if I am doing the work right. So I said if he has a 50 % likely hood to find a car that was expired and had 1 car. It would be 50 percent. Now if he had 2nt got it the first time it would be a 100 % chance to find the car expired . Hope I didn’t co fuse you more
