For each of her sales, a saleswoman receives a commission equal to 20 percent of the first $500 of the total amount of the sale,

plus 30 percent of the total amount of the sale in excess of $500. If the total amount of one of her sales was $800, the saleswoman’s commission was approximately what percent of the total amount of the sale?

Answer:

23.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Well,

in 800, the first 500 receives 20% commission, and the next 800 - 500 = 300 receives 30% commission.

So,

500 * 20 % = 500 * 0.2 = $100

300 * 30% = 300 * 0.3 = $90

Total commission on $800 is 100 + 90 = $190.

To find percentage, we divide:

190/800 = 0.2375 * 100 = 23.75%

T = AB-5 for A what would be the answer for A
Ainat [17]

The given equation solved for A is A = (T + 5)/ B

<h3>Solving linear equation</h3>

From the question, we are to solve the given equation for A

To solve the equation for A, we will simply make A the subject of the equation

The given equation is

T = AB - 5

Solving for A

T = AB - 5

Add 5 to both sides of the equation

T + 5 = AB - 5 + 5

T + 5 = AB

Divide both sides of the equation by B

That is,

(T + 5)/B = AB/B

(T + 5)/B = A

∴ A = (T + 5)/ B

Hence, the given equation solved for A is A = (T + 5)/ B

What is the maximum number of possible extreme values for the function,
Liula [17]

Answer:

<h2>(0.3, -18.45).</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to recur to the extreme value theorem, which states: "If a function is continuous on a closed interval, then that function has a maximum and a minimum inside that interval".

Basically, as the theorem states, if a dunction is continuous, then it has maxium or minium.

In this case, we have a quadratic function, which is a parabola. An important characteristic of parabolas is that they have a maximum or a minium, but they don't have both. When the quadratic term of the fuction is positive, then it has a minium at its vertex. When the quadratic term of the function is negative, then it has a maximum at its vertex.

So, the given function is f(x)=x^{2} +4x^{2} -3x-18=5x^{2} -3x-18, where the quadratic term is positive, so the functions has a minimum at V(h,k), where h=-\frac{b}{2a} and k=f(h), let's find that point

<h3>h=-\frac{-3}{2(5)} =\frac{3}{10} =0.3</h3><h3>k=f(0.3)=5(0.3)^{2} -3(0.3)-18=0.45-0.9-18=-18.45</h3><h3 /><h3>Therefore, the minium of the function is at (0.3, -18.45).</h3>
