Marcus works as a salesman at a car dealership. He is paid a base salary of $1,445.74 each month, and he receives a commission o

f $108.68 for each vehicle he sells. If last month Marcus earned $6,010.30, how many cars did he sell last month?

First we need to set up an equation.

Let's call "x" the number of cars he sells.

Since he makes $1,445.74 right of the bat, it will be added in. Then, 108.68 times the number of cars he sells.

$6010.3=1445.74+108.68x\\\\4564.56=108.68x\\\\42=x$

He sold 42 Cars.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

(B)72 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert cups to fluid ounces, Sari wrote the equivalent ratios.

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{? fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}$

Let the question mark be represented by x.

We then have:

$\dfrac{8 \text{ fluid ounces}}{1\text{ cup}} =\dfrac{\text{x fluid ounces}}{9\text{ cups}}\\$Cross multiply\\x \times 1 = 8 \times 9\\x=72$ fluid ounces$

We conclude that there are 72 fluid ounces in 9 cups.

Find the work done by F= (x^2+y)i + (y^2+x)j +(ze^z)k over the following path from (4,0,0) to (4,0,4)

babunello [35]

$\vec F(x,y,z)=(x^2+y)\,\vec\imath+(y^2+x)\,\vec\jmath+ze^z\,\vec k$

We want to find $f(x,y,z)$ such that $\nabla f=\vec F$ . This means

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=x^2+y$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=y^2+x$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=ze^z$

Integrating both sides of the latter equation with respect to $z$ tells us

$f(x,y,z)=e^z(z-1)+g(x,y)$

and differentiating with respect to $x$ gives

$x^2+y=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial x}$

Integrating both sides with respect to $x$ gives

$g(x,y)=\dfrac{x^3}3+xy+h(y)$

Then

$f(x,y,z)=e^z(z-1)+\dfrac{x^3}3+xy+h(y)$

and differentiating both sides with respect to $y$ gives

$y^2+x=x+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dy}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dy}=y^2\implies h(y)=\dfrac{y^3}3+C$

So the scalar potential function is

$\boxed{f(x,y,z)=e^z(z-1)+\dfrac{x^3}3+xy+\dfrac{y^3}3+C}$

By the fundamental theorem of calculus, the work done by $\vec F$ along any path depends only on the endpoints of that path. In particular, the work done over the line segment (call it $L$ ) in part (a) is

$\displaystyle\int_L\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=f(4,0,4)-f(4,0,0)=\boxed{1+3e^4}$

and $\vec F$ does the same amount of work over both of the other paths.

In part (b), I don't know what is meant by "df/dt for F"...

In part (c), you're asked to find the work over the 2 parts (call them $L_1$ and $L_2$ ) of the given path. Using the fundamental theorem makes this trivial:

$\displaystyle\int_{L_1}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=f(0,0,0)-f(4,0,0)=-\frac{64}3$

$\displaystyle\int_{L_2}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=f(4,0,4)-f(0,0,0)=\frac{67}3+3e^4$
