(- 5, - 6 ) or (- 5, 10 )

using the distance formula

d = √(x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, y )

d = √(- 5 - 1 )² + (y - 2 )² = 10

d = √36 + (y - 2 )² = 10

square both sides

36 + (y - 2 )² = 100 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

(y - 2 )² = 64

take the square root of both sides

y - 2 = ± 8 ( add 2 to both sides )

y = 2 ± 8

y = 2 + 8 or y = 2 - 8 ⇒ y = 10 or y = - 6

coordinates of A = (- 5, - 6) or (- 5, 10 )

A salesperson is paid a flat rate plus a fixed percentage of her sales. Last month, she sold $16,000 worth of goods and was paid
Feliz [49]

Answer:

<em>She will be paid $1,350</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

y=mx+b, where m and b are constants.

The payments for a salesperson will be linearly modeled. There are two known points: When the sales were $16,000, the payment was $1,600. This makes the point (16,000;1,600).

We also know when the sales were $12,000, the payment was $1,400. The point is (12,000;1,400)

Let's use the points to find the values of m and b.

Using (16,000;1,600):

1,600=m*16,000+b

Using (12,000;1,400):

1,400=m*12,000+b

Subtracting both equations:

200=16,000m-12,000m

200=4,000m

Solving:

m=200/4,000=0.05

Using the first equation and the value of m:

1,600=0.05*16,000+b

1,600=800+b

Solving:

b=800

The equation is now complete:

y=0.05x+800

She sold $11,000 this month, so the payment is:

y=0.05\cdot 11,000+800

Y=550+800=1,350

She will be paid $1,350

The equation y = 36 + 18x models the relationship
wariber [46]

Answer:

Option B) The height, in inches, of a typical apple tree

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the number of years, after the tree was planted

y ---> the height in inches, of a typical golden  delicious apple tree

we have

y=36+18x

Remember that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In this problem

The y-intercept is the height of the tree when it was planted (x=0)

Cathy is paid at a rate of K7.20 per hour for a basic hour-week of 70 hours. She is paid time-and-a-half for over-time during th
Levart [38]

Answer:

K1310.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Basic pay per hour = K7.20

Overtime pay during the week per hour = 1 1/2 * K7. 20 = K10.8

Weekends = 2 * K7.20 = K14.4

Basic hours per week = 70 hours

In a fortnight :

Basic hours = 70 * 2 = 140 hours :

Hence, Overtime during the week = (160 - 140) = 20 hours

Weekend hours = (4 +2) = 6 hours

Total earning :

(140 * 7.20) + (20 * 10.8) + (6 * 14.4)

1008 + 216 + 86.4

= K1310.4
