Answer:

a=52

Step-by-step explanation:

-(a + 3)= -55

-(a) + -(3)= -55

-a - 3 (+3) = - 55+3

-a -3(+3) = -52

-a = - 52

a=52

or

-(a + 3)= -55

(a + 3)= 55

(a) + (3)= 55

a + 3(-3)= 55(-3)

a = 52

So a department store worker gets paid 325.00 per week plus 4% commission of their total sales if the worker sells 3600 of the m
MAXImum [283]

Answer:The amount of commission made is 144

Step-by-step explanation:

The department store worker gets paid 325.00 per week plus 4% commission of their total sales. This means that the worker's earning is not fixed. It varies with the amount of sales made

if the worker sells 3600 of the merchandise, it means that the worker's sales commission will be 4% of 3600 of the merchandise

Sales commission earned by the store worker = 4/100 × 3600

= 0.04 × 3600 = 144

Law of Cosine/Sine problem.
storchak [24]
Either or can be used with any triangle...I personally find the law of sines is often more compact as in this case we can just say;

(sin115)/18=(sin40)/c  (with no need for b or B as would be needed with the law of cosines...)

c=18(sin40)/(sin115)

c≈12.77
