Answer:
1050 units
Explanations:
Given the equation y=500+0.2x to determine his weekly paycheck based on his sales volume, where:
y is the amount of his check
x is the number of units he sells each month.
In order to determine the amount of units he would need to sell for his paycheck to be $710, we willl substitute y = 710 into the equation and find the value of x as shown:
y=500+0.2x
710 = 500+0.2x
710-500 = 0.2x
210 = 0.2x
0.2x = 210
Divide both sides by 0.2
0.2x/0.2 = 210/0.2
x = 1050
Hence he would need 1,050 units to sell for his paycheck to be $710
Answer:
- after week 7: 4374 pennies
- 486 pennies: after week 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence values have a first term of 6 and a common ratio of 3, so can be described by the formula ...
an = 6·3^(n-1)
This can be rearranged to ...
an = 2·3^n
__
When n=7, the value is ...
a7 = 2·3^7 = 4374 . . . . pennies saved after 7 weeks
__
To find when there are 486 pennies saved, we can solve the equation ...
486 = 2·3^n
243 = 3^n
log(243) = n·log(3) . . . . . . . take the logarithm
log(243)/log(3) = n = 5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of n
Tabitha will have saved 486 pennies after 5 weeks.
Uh sure if you give me the problem I could help
