This is simple , minus 50 from 100 and that gives you 50 left . then divide that by 2 and that gives you 25 . so the minimum number of sales required is 25 . hope this helps :)<span />

Answer:  The required minimum number of sales that we should make is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that as a salesman, we are are paid $50 per week plus $2 per sale. This week we want your pay to be at least $100.

We are to find the number of sales that we must make to earn at least $100.

Let n represents the required number of sales that we should make.

Then, according to the given information, we have

50+2x\geq100\\\\\Rightarrow 2x\geq 100-50\\\\\Rightarrow 2x\geq 50\\\\\Rightarrow x\geq\dfrac{50}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x\geq 25.

Thus, the required minimum number of sales that we should make is 25.

Emma invested $41,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.6% compounded monthly. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are
kvasek [131]

Answer: it will take 7 years for the value of the account to reach $49,300

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $41000

A = $49300

r = 2.6% = 2.6/100 = 0.026

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

Therefore,

49300 = 41000(1 + 0.026/12)^12 × t

49300/41000 = (1 + 0.0022)^12t

1.2024 = (1.0022)^12t

Taking log of both sides of the equation, it becomes

Log 1.2024 = 12t × log 1.0022

0.08 = 12 × 0.00095 = 0.0114t

t = 0.08/0.0114

t = 7 years
