Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: TV║QS, RV=x+10, VS=x, RT=x+4 and TQ=x-3.

Triangle Proportionality Theorem: This theorem states that if a line segment is parallel to the base of a triangle and it intersects the other two sides, then it divides those sides proportionally.

Using the Triangle Proportionality Theorem, we get

\dfrac{RT}{TQ}=\dfrac{RV}{VS}

Substitute the given values in the above equation.

\dfrac{x+4}{x-3}=\dfrac{x+10}{x}

On cross multiplication we get

x(x+4)=(x+10)(x-3)

x^2+4x=x^2-3x+10x-30

x^2+4x=x^2+7x-30

Subtract x² from both sides.

x^2+4x-x^2=x^2+7x-30-x^2

4x=7x-30

Subtract 7x from both sides.

4x-7x=7x-30-7x

-3x=-30

Divide both sides by -3.

x=\frac{-30}{-3}

x=10

The value of x is 10. Therefore, the correct option is C.

Mrs. Robinson, an insurance agent, earns a salary of $4,800 per year plus a 3% commission on her sales. The average price of a p
kap26 [50]

Answer:

4800+183x\geq 8000

She must sell at least 18 policies to make an annual income of at least $8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of policies Mrs. Robinson must sell

We know that Mrs. Robins makes 3% on commission for each policy sold. We also know that the average price of a policy is $6,100, so she makes 3% of $6,100 per policy sold. To find the 3% of $6,100 we just need to multiply 3% and $6,100; then dive the result by 100%:

\frac{3*6,100}{100} =183

Now we know that she makes $183 per policy sold. Since x is the number of policies sold, 183x is her total commission for selling x policies.

We also know that She makes $4,800 per year, so her total annual income is her salary plus her commissions, in other words:

4800+183x

Finally, we know that she wants to make at least $8,000, so her salary plus her commissions must be greater or equal than $8,000:

4800+183x\geq 8000

Let's solve the inequality:

1. Subtract 4800 from both sides

4800-4800+183x\geq 8000-4800

183x\geq 3200

2. Divide both sides by 183

\frac{183x}{183} \geq \frac{3200}{183}

x\geq 17.48

Since she can't sell a fraction of a policy, we must round the result to the next integer:

x\geq 18

We can conclude that she must sell 18 policies to make an annual income of at least $8,000.
