Answer:. $2500= 1500 + 0.05x

His Monthly Sales were $20,000

Step-by-step explanation:.

$2500 = 1500 + 0.05x

$2500-1500 = 0.05 x

1000 = 0.05x

1000/0.05 = 0.05x/0.05

1000÷0.05 =×

20,000 = x

belka [17]
Susanne is 16 years old.

b = Bob's age

s = Susanne's age

d = Dakota's age

Bob's age is 4 times greater than Susanne's age:

b = 4s

Dakota is three years younger than Susanne:

d = s - 3

The sum of Bob's, Susanne's, and Dakota's ages is 93:

b + s + d = 93


 solve these equations:

b = 4s

d = s - 3

b + s + d = 93


and get:

b = 64 years

s = 16 years

(remember that s = Susanne) 

d = 13 years

While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the
atroni [7]

Answer:

0.79 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there is a tool at the top of the building which is dropped by a worker and it follows the following equation at every instant of time .

h(t)=-16t^{2} +h_{0}

where h_{0} =10 feet

We know that this height is measured from the base of the building which means that when the tool reaches the bottom of the building it has h = 0 feet.

Let this be done at time t

h(t) = 0

-16t^{2} +10=0

t^{2} =\frac{10}{16}

t=\frac{\sqrt{10} }{4}

t = 0.79 sec

Therefore the total time taken by the tool to reach the bottom of the building is 0.79 sec.
