Answer:

P(x)=0.025x+100

Step-by-step explanation:

The 0.025 is 2.5% as a decimal. Then, the +100 is for the base pay amount Hailey receives.

Answer:

Hailey's total pay on a day which she sells x dollars worth of computer is P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given,</em>

Let x represents the total amount of sales per day

Let bp represents her base pay

bp = $100

Let sc represents her sales commission

sc = 2.5% of total amount of sales

sc = 2.5% of x

Let P(x) represent her total pay on a day she sells x dollars worth of computer

To calculate P(x), we make use of the summation of her base pay by her total sales commission.

This is given as

P(x) = base pay + sales commission

or

P(x) = bp + sc

By Substitution of the right values

P(x) = $100 + 2.5% of $x

P(x) = 100 + \frac{2.5}{100} of $x

P(x) = 100 + \frac{2.5x}{100}

P(x) = 100 + \frac{25x}{1000}

P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}

Hence, Hailey's total pay on a day which she sells x dollars worth of computer is P(x) = 100 + \frac{x}{40}

If b/a=c/b=d/c=2/3, find the value of a:b:c:d
leva [86]

Answer:

the ratio would be 6.75:4.5:3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

replace d and c with

d=2 and c=3

Then using proportion multiplication, you will find that b is 4.5

now replace all b with 4.5.

Then again using proportion multiplication, you will get a is 6.75.

Plug in a, b, c, d in the ratio and you get 6.75:4.5:3:2

If the value of y varies directly with x and y= -1 when x=3, find y if x=9
Zolol [24]

y = - 3

Since y varies directly as x then

y = kx ← ( k is the constant of variation )

to find k use y = - 1 when x = 3

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-1}{3} = - \frac{1}{3}

hence y = - \frac{1}{3} x

when x = 9, then

y = - \frac{1}{3} × 9 = - 3

A decorative steel is shown and it is made from circular circle and 6 stems.
STALIN [3.7K]

The total length of the steel used in the frame is 270 cm, if the decorative steel up of 6 stems and each stem is 45 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

           Decorative steel made from circular circle of 6 stems

           The length of the stem is 45 cm

Step:1

         We need to find the total length of the steel used in the decorative steel,

          Let,  T - Total length of the steel

                  L - Length of the stem

                  n - Number of stems used in steel frame

Step:2

       Formula to find the total length of the steel is,

                            T= l × n

       From given,

                  l = 45 cm

                 n = 6 stems

       Substitute the values in formula,

                          T = ( 45 × 6 )

                              = 270

                        T = 270 cm

Result:

         The total length of the steel used in the frame is 270 cm.
