Answer:

$925,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "t" represent "total sales."

We are asking how much this person must bring in thru sales to end up with $55,000 in earnings.

A suitable equation would be:

$18,000 + 0.04t = $55,000.

Let's isolate t.  Start by subtracting $18,000 from both sides, obtaining:

0.04t = $37,000

Dividing both sides by 0.04 results in t = $925,000.

Her sales must be $925,000 for her income (including earnings) to be $55,000.

The table shows the distance Shannon ran over a week.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Shannon run 1.5 km more on Friday than on Saturday.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table

  • Distance run on Friday = 4/2 = 2 km
  • Distance run on Saturday = 1/2 = 0.5 km

  • In order to run how many more kilometers Shannon run on Friday than on Saturday, we need to subtract the distance run on Saturday from the distance run on Friday.

i.e.

Friday run - Saturday run =  2 - 0.5

                                          = 1.5 km

Thus, Shannon run 1.5 km more on Friday than on Saturday.

#3 AB and AD are tangent to the circle centered at point C. Find the value of x. *
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

tangent lines from the same point to a circle are congruent in length, so we can say that

5x+8 = 8x-4

5x -5x +8 = 8x - 5x -4

8 = 3x - 4

8+4 = 3x -4 + 4

3x = 12

3x/3 = 12/3

x=4

Parallel to y =9x 3, y-intercept at -2
Mashutka [201]
Slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

We have this line: y=9x+3; a line parallel to this line (y=9x+3) will have the same slope; therefore m would be equal to 9 (m=9).

Data:
m=9
b=-2
y=mx+b
y=9x-2

Answer: y=9x-2

Using radicals , write an equivalent expression for the expression 2 1/3
liq [111]
I'm assuming that the 1/3 is an exponent.

If so, then 2^{1/3} = \sqrt[3]{2}

Which is the cube root of 2. Raising any value to the 1/3 power is the same as taking the cube root.
