Answer: The dollar sales volume will be $4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of sales volume for which the two offers result in the same pay.

Company A offers a weekly salary of $360 plus a commission of 18% on their dollar sales volume. This means that the total value offered by company A for x sales volume is

360 + 0.18x

Company B offers a weekly salary of $720 plus commission of 9% on their dollar sales volume. This means that the total value offered by company B for x sales volume is

720 + 0.09x

For the two offers to be the same, the sales volume would be

360 + 0.18x = 720 + 0.09x

0.18x - 0.09x = 720 - 360

0.09x = 360

x = 360/0.09

x = $4000

Answer:

$\tan \theta = - \frac{1}{5} = - 0.2$

$\cos \theta = 0.98$

$\sin \theta = - 0.196$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that $\cot \theta = - 5$ and $\theta$ is in the fourth quadrant.

So, only $\cos \theta$ will have positive value and $\sin \theta$ , $\tan \theta$ will have negative value.

Now, $\cot \theta = - 5$

⇒ $\tan \theta = \frac{1}{\cot \theta} = -\frac{1}{5}$ (Answer)

We know, that $\sec^{2} \theta - \tan^{2} \theta = 1$

⇒ $\sec \theta = \sqrt{1 + \tan^{2} \theta } = \sqrt{1 + (- \frac{1}{5} )^{2} } = 1.019$

{Since, $\cos \theta$ is positive then $\sec \theta$ will also be positive}

⇒ $\cos \theta = \frac{1}{\sec \theta} = \frac{1}{1.0198} = 0.98$ (Answer)

We know, that $\csc^{2} \theta - \cot^{2} \theta = 1$

⇒ $\csc \theta = - \sqrt{1 + \cot^{2} \theta } = - \sqrt{1 + (- 5 )^{2} } = - 5.099$

{Since, $\sin \theta$ is negative then $\csc \theta$ will also be negative}

⇒ $\sin \theta = \frac{1}{\csc \theta} = \frac{1}{- 5.099} = - 0.196$ (Answer)

A line includes the points 2, 10 and 0, 2 what is its equation in slope intercept form

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

y = -4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b ( slope-intercept)

1. Find Slope:

$\frac{y^2 - y^1}{x^2 - x^1}$

Lets name 2 as y2 and 10 as y1. And 0 as x2 and 2 as x1.

$\frac{2-10}{0-2}$ = $\frac{-8}{2}$ = -4

m/slope = -4

2. Find y-intercept:

$y = mx +b$

2 = -4(0) + b

= 2 = b

Y-intercept/b = 2

3. Put into slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

= y = -4x + 2

Hope that helps! :D
