Answer:

He has to work 1,000 weeks to make Plan B at least better

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Express the first salary pay

The expression for the first salary is as follows

A=F+(R×T)

where;

A=total first salary

F=fixed income

R=commission rate

T=total sales

In our case;

F=$100

R=15%=15/100=0.15

T=t

replacing;

A=100+(15% of t)

A=100+(0.15×t)

A=100+0.15 t

The equation for the first salary; 0.15 t+100

The expression for the second salary is as follows

In our case;

F=$150

R=10%=10/100=0.1

T=t

replacing;

A=150+(10% of t)

A=150+(0.1×t)

A=150+0.1 t

The equation for the second salary; 0.1 t+150

Equating equation 1 to equation 2 and solving;

0.15 t+100=0.1 t+150

(0.15 t-0.1 t)=150-100

0.05 t=50

t=50/0.05

t=1,000

He has to work 1,000 weeks to make Plan B at least better

8x-y=19, y+3x=7 Ax+By=c form
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

8x-y=19 is already in your Ax+By=C form

For your second one you need to switch your x and y around so

3x+y=7 gives you your Ax+By=C form

Now you want to use the system of elimination to solve the system of equations

So when you take 8x-y=19 you then add 3x+y=7

8x+3x= 11x

-y+y=0 (crosses out... why it's called elimination)

19+7=26

Your equation is now 11x=26

You then divide both sides by 11 to get

x=26/11

(Hope this helps ya ;)
