Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Natalie basic salary is $300 per week. She is paid a commission of 30% of her total sales for the week. Therefore her total weekly salary per week is given by:

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions

If Natalie makes $225 in sales, her commission = 30% of $225 = 0.3 × $225 = $67.5

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $67.5

Total weekly salary = $367.5

b) If Natalie makes $x in sales, her commission = 30% of $x = 0.3 × $x = $0.3x

Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $0.3x

Total weekly salary = $(300 + 0.3x)

The perimeter of a triangle is 510 feet and the sides are in the ratio of 11:16:24. Find the area of the triangle
Nutka1998 [239]

If the sides are in the ratio of 11:16:24, it means that they are all multiples of a same number x, according to these factors.

So, the shorter side is 11x feet long, the middle one is 16x feet long, and the longest side is 24x feet long.

This means that the perimeter is

11x+16x+24x = 51x feet long. But we know that this is 510 feet, so we have

51x = 510 \implies x = \cfrac{510}{51} = 10.

So, the three sides are 110, 160 and 240 feet long.

To find the area of a triangle knowing its three sides, you can use Heron's formula, which states that, if s is half the perimeter of the triangle whose sides are a,b,c, the area A is given by

A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

In our case, s = 255, a = 110, b = 160, c = 240 so the formula becomes

A = \sqrt{255(255-110)(255-160)(255-240)} = \sqrt{255(145)(95)(15)} = \sqrt{52689375} \approx 7258.74

<em>Answer:</em>

∠WVR = 156

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

Angles in a triangle add up to 180

∴ ∠SRT + RST + RTS = 180

∴ ∠SRT + 109 + 47 = 180

∠SRT = 24

Alternate Angle Theorem

∠SRT = 180 - ∠WVR

24 = 180 - ∠WVR

24 - 180 = - ∠WVR

-156 = - ∠WVR

∠WVR = 156

Have a beautiful day.
