It’s not my answer but I think it’s correct!
Answer: her sales for the month of May is $55000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent her total sales for the month of May.
Each month she receives a 5% commission on all her sales of medical supplies up to $20,000. This means that for her first sales worth $20000, she earns a commission of
5/100 × 20000 = 1000
She also earns 8.5% on her total sales over $20,000. This means that for sales over $20000, she earns
8.5/100(x - 20000) = 0.085x - 1700
Her total commission for May was $3,975. The expression becomes
1000 + 0.085x - 1700 = 3975
0.085x = 3975 + 1700 - 1000
0.085x = 4675
x = 4675/0.085
x = 55000
To find the perimeter of the square, you add all four sides together:
10x + 10x + (6x + 8) + (6x + 8)
20x + 12x + 16 = P
32x + 16 = P
you have to find x to get the actual perimeter. Since the shape is a square, all 4 sides are equal, so you can set 10x and (6x + 8) as equal to each other.
10x = 6x + 8
4x = 8
x = 2
Now you just plug in x and finish the rest of the problem, and you have the answer:
32(2) + 16 = P
64 + 16 = P
P = 80
(if you find this helpful, marking this as the brainliest answer would make my day :)
