<u>Given:</u>
Zoe gets paid a 1% commission for every sale she makes in addition to base pay.
She sold $8,000 worth of computers on a day and made $140 that day.
<u>To find:</u>
A function P(x) representing total pay on a day where she sells x dollars worth of computers.
<u>Solution:</u>
To determine the function P(x) we need to determine how much Zoe's base pay per day is.
One day, she sold $8,000 worth of computers and made $140 that day.
She gets a commission of 1% for $8,000.
1% of $8,000 
So she got paid $140 out of which $80 was a commission.
So her base pay 
So Zoe's base pay is $60 a day.
P(x) is the sum of her base pay and 1% of the amount of computer sales she makes ($x).
So 
, where x is the computer sales she makes in dollars. P(x) is represented in dollars.
Answer:
r = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
6r + 7 = 13 + 7r
-6r both sides
7 = 13 + r
-7 both sides
r + 6 = 0
-6 both sides
r = -6
Answer: 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Previous baby's weight = 18 pounds
New baby's weight = 24 pounds.
Increase in weight = New weight -Previews weight
=24 pounds - 18 pounds =6 pounds
Percentage increase in baby's weight =
Hence, the percentage increase in baby's weight = 25%
The direct answer to your question is: "No".
because in that equation, 'x' is not 120 or130.
Let's find out what 'x' actually is:
<u>3/5 x = 52</u>
Multiply each side by 5 : 3x = 260
Divide each side by 3 : <em> x = 86 and 2/3 </em>
