Answer:
5000 + (0.16)x > 55,000
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>DATA:</em></u>
Michael's salary = $55,000
Cole's basic salary = $5,000
--> Commission = 16% of sales
--> Sales = x
<u><em>Cole's total salary</em></u>
<em>--> Basic salary + Commission x sales</em>
--> 5000 + 16% of x
--> 5000 + (0.16)x as 16 percent is equal to 16/100 = 0.16
<u><em>Cole's total salary should be more than Michael's total salary</em></u>
5000 + (0.16)x > 55000
<em>--> Make x the subject</em>
0.16x > 55000-5000
0.16x > 50,000
x > 50,000/0.16
x > 312500
The inequality that represents the dollar amount of sales is 5000 + (0.16)x > 55000.
The dollar amount of sales that Cole must generate should be more than $312500.
A because | | <- around a number means the absolute value which in this case is 6.
|-6| > -6
6 > -6
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 is equivalent to 16/24
and 5/8 is equivalent to 15/24 miles
15/24+16/24= 31/24
31/24 simplifies to 1 6/24
Which simplifies down to 1 1/6
Miles ran 1 and 1/6 miles
