C. 5/2, 3 this is the answer
Since you need an isolated variable to use the substitution method, we need to re-arrange one of the equations. This will probably be easiest to do with the first one.
Add 5y to both sides of the first equation.
x=10+5y
Now, in the second equation, put in 10+5y in any spot that has an x.
2(10+5y)-10y=20
Distribute the 2 to both numbers in the parenthesis.
20+10y-10y=20
Combine like terms.
20=20
This means that the two equations are actually the same. You can see this if you multiply the whole first equation by 2
2(x-5y=10)
2x-10y=20, which is the same as the second equation. Therefore, the two equations are actually the same one.
Answer:
a) P = 0.08s +200
b) $488
c) $6250
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
Your answer is correct. The commission rate is multiplied by the sales amount, and that product is added to the guaranteed pay to get the paycheck amount:
P = 0.08s +200
__
<h3>b)</h3>
Fill in 3600 for s and do the arithmetic.
P = 0.08×3600 +200 = 288 +200 = 488
The paycheck amount will be $488.
__
<h3>c)</h3>
Use the equation for part (a) and solve for P = 700.
700 = 0.08s +200
500 = 0.08s . . . . . . subtract 200
500/0.08 = s = 6250 . . . dollars; divide by the coefficient of s to get this
Sales would have to be $6250.
