the salesperson earns a fixed cost of $ 30 plus 2/9th of his sales

we have to find how many sales he gets to earn $ 100 for one day

so lets say that the number of sales for the day - x sales

and he earns 2/9th of his sales

therefore amount he earns for x sales is - \frac{2}{9}* x = \frac{2x}{9}

this value plus his fixed earnings of $ 30 per day

so the amount he earns is 2x/9 + 30

this equals $ 100

so we can write the following equation

\frac{2x}{9} + 30 = 100

\frac{2x}{9} = 100 - 30

\frac{2x}{9} = 70

2x = 70 * 9

2x = 630

x = 315

so the amount of sales he earns for that day is 315 sales

Given: <br> PQ<br> ⊥<br> QR<br> , PR=20,<br> SR=11, QS=5<br> Find: The value of PS.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The value of the side PS is 26 approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have two right triangles. Triangle PQR and Triangle PQS.

Where S is some point on the line segment QR.

Given:

PR = 20

SR = 11

QS = 5

We know that QR = QS + SR

QR = 11 + 5

QR = 16

Now triangle PQR has one unknown side PQ which in its base.

Finding PQ:

Using Pythagoras theorem for the right angled triangle PQR.

PR² = PQ² + QR²

PQ = √(PR² - QR²)

PQ = √(20²+16²)

PQ = √656

PQ = 4√41

Now for right angled triangle PQS, PS is unknown which is actually the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Finding PS:

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

PS² = PQ² + QS²

PS² = 656 + 25

PS² = 681

PS = 26.09

PS = 26

Which set of ordered pairs does not represent a function?
Irina18 [472]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B. { (3, –2), (3, –4), (4, –1), (4, –3) }

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Functions are a set of points that show how dependent variables change through independent variables.

Defining a Function

In functions, each x-value is assigned to exactly one y-value. This means that x-values do not repeat. So, if there is one x-value more than once in a set, then it cannot be a function.

For example, set B has the x-value 3 and 4 repeated twice. Thus, it does not represent a function.

Graph of a Function

Functions can also be defined through a graph. Just like with coordinate points, x-values do not repeat on the graph. You can use the vertical line test to see if a graph is a function. If you can draw a vertical line at every point on a graph without it ever intersecting with the graph more than once, then it is a function.

7/10 of 120 and show work pls
slavikrds [6]
When it says 7/10, it actually means 70%, so you have to find 70% of 120.
<span>
70 % of 120 
= 70% x 120 
= (70/100) x 120 
= (8400/100) 
= 84

Answer: 84</span>
