Answer:
$91.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Jessica is paid:
- $0.45 per basket for the first 100 baskets picked;
- $0.50 per basket for all baskets over 100 picked.
1st day:
Jessica picked 65 baskets of oranges (less than 100)
Jessica is paid ![65\cdot \$0.45=\$29.25](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=65%5Ccdot%20%5C%240.45%3D%5C%2429.25)
2nd day:
Jessica picked 135 baskets of oranges (35 more than 100)
Jessica is paid ![100\cdot \$0.45+35\cdot \$0.50=\$45+\$17.50=\$62.50](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=100%5Ccdot%20%5C%240.45%2B35%5Ccdot%20%5C%240.50%3D%5C%2445%2B%5C%2417.50%3D%5C%2462.50)
Altogether Jessica is paid
![\$29.25+\$62.50=\$91.75](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%2429.25%2B%5C%2462.50%3D%5C%2491.75)
SINCE the slope is -2 it would be like this -2/1 but first plot the y-intercept onto the graph and go down 2 and over 1.
The sales tax rate is 5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Sales tax for an item = $24.50
Cost of item before tax = $490
Sales tax rate = ![\frac{Sales\ tax}{Cost\ of\ item}*100\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7BSales%5C%20tax%7D%7BCost%5C%20of%5C%20item%7D%2A100%5C%5C)
![Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{24.50}{490}*100\\\\Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{2450}{490}\\\\Sales\ tax\ rate=5\%](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Sales%5C%20tax%5C%20rate%3D%5Cfrac%7B24.50%7D%7B490%7D%2A100%5C%5C%5C%5CSales%5C%20tax%5C%20rate%3D%5Cfrac%7B2450%7D%7B490%7D%5C%5C%5C%5CSales%5C%20tax%5C%20rate%3D5%5C%25)
