Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of vehicles that the sales person sold in a month.
The sales person at the car dealership earns a monthly salary of $2400 and $250 for each vehicle sold. Let y represent the total amount he earns for selling x vehicles in a month. Therefore,
y = 250x + 2400
To determine the number of vehicles that the sales person needs to sell in a month to earn exactly $4000, we would substitute
4000 for y. It becomes
4000 = 250x + 2400
250x = 4000 - 2400 = 1600
x = 1600/250
x = 6.4
He would have to sell 7 vehicles because he cannot sell 6.4 vehicles and if he sells 6 vehicles, it would be lesser than $4000

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to assume in both problems that the two triangles are similar. That is a very dangerous assumption -- especially in later math classes. But in this case, there is no other way to do the problem. The two sets of triangles look like they are proportional. So set up two ratios that are = to each other
On the left
long side small triange / long side large triangle = base small triangle / base large triangle
On the right
hypotenuse/longest leg = hypotenuse / longest leg.
Problem A
Set up the similar Proportion
5/40 = x/20 Cross Multiply
40x = 20*5
40x = 100 Divide by 40
x = 100/40
x = 2.5
Problem B
Again set up the similar triangle proportion
15/10 = x/2 Multiply by 2
15*2/10 = x
3 = x
