Answer: b is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamara earns her living as a salary plus commission employee. This means that the total amount she earns is not fixed.

Her annual salary is $48,000. There are 12 months in a year. This means

that her her monthly salary is 48000/12 = $4000

she earns 4% commission on all sales she makes.

If Tamara wants to make a total of $6,000 this month, it means that she wants to make an extra $2000($6000-$4000) this month. She can only make this from commission based on sales

Let the sales be x

4% of x = 2000

4/100 × x = 2000

0.04x = 2000

x= 2000/0.04 = $50000

Answer:

  b.  $50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamara's monthly salary is 1/12 of her annual salary, so to make her goal of $6000 income in a month, her sales must satisfy ...

  $6000 = $48000/12 + 4%×sales

  $2000 = 0.04×sales

  $2000/0.04 = sales = 50,000

Tamara needs to have $50,000 in sales this month.

Find the slope between the points. (4,-2) and (8,5)
aksik [14]
Slope = m

Equation to find slope is:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

2 points:
(4,-2) 4 = x1 and -2 = y1
(8,5) 8 = x2 and 5 = y2

So...

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (5 - (-2)) / (8 - 4)

m = 7 / 4 or 1.75

Therefore, the slope of the line is 7/4 OR 1.75.

: A sports store sells a total of 70 soccer balls in one month, and collects a total of $2,400. A limited Edition soccer ball is
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The store sold 43 pro NSL soccer balls.

The store sold 27 limited Edition soccer balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of limited Edition soccer balls and y represent the number of pro NSL soccer balls.

We have been given that a sports store sells a total of 70 soccer balls in one month. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x+y=70...(1)

Cost of x limited Edition soccer balls: 65x

Cost of y pro NSL soccer balls: 15x

We are also told that store collected a total of $2,400. We can represent this information in an equation as:

65x+15y=2400...(2)

From equation (1), we will get:

x=70-y

Substituting this value in equation (2), we will get:

65(70-y)+15y=2400

4550-65y+15y=2400

4550-50y=2400

4550-4550-50y=2400-4550

-50y=-2150

\frac{-50y}{-50}=\frac{-2150}{-50}

y=43

Therefore, the store sold 43 pro NSL soccer balls.

Now, we will substitute y=43 in equation (1) to solve for x:

x+43=70

x+43-43=70-43

[tex]x=27/tex]

Therefore, the store sold 27 limited Edition soccer balls.
