x = 12 , y = 18 (12, 18) is the solution, intersection of the two lines.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
y = 0.1x +1500
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
You need an equation that will give Gary a salary of $1500 even if he makes no sales (x=0). The only possible choice for the second item is then ...
... +1500
You are expected to know that Gary's commission of 10% of sales is computed by multiplying sales (x) by 10%. That is, if Gary sells $100 worth of items, his commission is ...
... 10% × $100 = $10
That is, the multiplier is 0.1.
Gary's salary (y) is then computed as
... y = 0.1x +1500

<em>Comment on percentages</em>
The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100. That is, 10% = 10/100, ten hundredths, or 0.10. (You might notice here that "percent" and "hundredths" can be used interchangeably.)
Answer:
4 weeks and 2 days
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 7 days in one week.
To convert 30 days into weeks and days, divide 30 by 7.
The biggest number you can divide it by is 4 [without going over 30]
7 x 4 = 28.
30 - 28 = 2.
So 30 days = 4 weeks and 2 days.
I hope this helps! :)
Answer:
5x - (x/y) = 18 when x=4 and y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - (x/y)
When x=4 and y=2
Substitute the value of x=4 and y=2 into the expression
5x - (x/y)
5(4) - (4/2)
Multiply 5 by 4 and divide 4 by 2
=20 - 2
Subtract 2 from 20
=18
5x - (x/y) = 18 when x=4 and y=2
