----------------------------------------------------
Given information
----------------------------------------------------
Tom: Base Salary = $200, Commission = $50/car
Steve: Base Salary = $350, Commission = $35/car

----------------------------------------------------
Tom's earning in one week
----------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of cars he sold in a week
Tom's earning = 200 + 50x

----------------------------------------------------
Ans: 200 + 50x
----------------------------------------------------


----------------------------------------------------
Steve's earning in one week
----------------------------------------------------
Let x be the number of cars he sold in a week
Steve's earning = 350 + 35x

----------------------------------------------------
Ans: 350 + 35x
----------------------------------------------------


----------------------------------------------------
If both earn the same amount, find x
----------------------------------------------------
200 + 50x = 350 + 35x
50x - 35x = 350 - 200
15x = 150
x = 10

---------------------------------------------------
Answer: 10 cars

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

put unknown as y

area of rectangle = width × long

y(y - 2)=48

u can use scientific calculator to find this

y²-2y-48=0

(y-8)(y+6)=0

y=8 y=-6

take the positive value and ignore the negative value

width=y-2 long=8

8-2=6

I hope this help you :)
