His basic salary is $ 2,500, his commission on sales is 3% (on sales only)
At the end of te month he got $3,040

Let x be the TOTAL sales performed during this month, so the money generated from sales (only) is (x).(3%), Hence the equation:

2500 + (x).(3%) = 3040
2500 + x(0.03) = 3040
x(0.03) = 3040-2500
x(0.03) = 540

and x = 540/0.03
x = $18,000

Find a1 if Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

$a_1=1.04$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a geometric sequence with:

$Sn = 89,800$ , $r = 3.4$ , and $n = 10$

Where

Sn is the sum of the sequence

r is the common ratio

$a_1$ is the first term in the sequence

n is the number of terms in the sequence

The formula to calculate the sum of a finite geometric sequence is:

$S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}$

Then:

$89,800=\frac{a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})}{1-3.4}$

Now we solve for $a_1$

$89,800(1-3.4)=a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})$

$a_1=\frac{89,800(1-3.4)}{1-(3.4)^{10}}\\\\a_1=1.04$

Make h the subject A=1/2(a+c)h

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

h = $\frac{2A}{a+c}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ (a + c)h

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

2A = (a + c)h ( divide both sides by (a + c) )

$\frac{2A}{a+c}$ = h

At the beginning of summer, Mark has $200 in savings and Ryan has $350. The brothers have mowing jobs set up for the summer. Bec

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

30 jobs

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mark</u>

Initial amount - $200
Earning - $20*j
Saving is: S = 20j + 200

<u>Ryan</u>

Initial amount - $350
Earning - $15*j
Saving is: S = 15j + 350

<u>If they get same saving, then the equations will be equal:</u>

20j + 200 = 15j + 350
20j - 15j = 350 - 200
5j = 150
j = 150/5
j = 30

The answer is 30 mowing jobs
