Answer:

C. x\geq 55000

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let x be the total monthly sales.

We have been given that a salesperson earns a salary of $700 per month plus 2% of the sales. The salesperson want to have a monthly income of at least $1800.  

This means that 700 plus 2% of total monthly sales should be greater than or equal to 1800. We can represent this information in an equation as:

700+(\frac{2}{100})x\geq 1800

700+0.02x\geq 1800

Let us solve our inequality to find the monthly sales (x).

Subtract 700 from both sides of our inequality.

700-700+0.02x\geq 1800-700

0.02x\geq 1100

Divide both sides of inequality by 0.02.

\frac{0.02x}{0.02}\geq \frac{1100}{0.02}

x\geq \frac{1100}{0.02}

x\geq 55000

Therefore, the total monthly sales must be greater than or equal to 55,000 and option C is the correct choice.

Tju [1.3M]

Solving a <em>system of equations</em>, it is found that since the <u>quadratic equation has two positive roots</u>, they can be the values of the length and the width, and the design is possible.

The perimeter of a <u>rectangle of length l and width w</u> is given by:

P = 2(l + w)

The area is:

A = lw

In this problem, perimeter of 63.5 m, hence:

2l + 2w = 63.5

2l = 63.5 - 2w

l = 31.75 - w

Area of 225 m², hence:

lw = 225

(31.75 - w)(w) = 225

w^2 - 31.75w + 225 = 0

Which is a quadratic equation with coefficients a = 1, b = -31.75, c = 225.

Then:

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac = (-31.75)^2 - 4(1)(225) = 108.0625

w_1 = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a} = \frac{31.75 + \sqrt{108.0625}}{2} = 21.1

w_2 = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a} = \frac{31.75 - \sqrt{108.0625}}{2} = 10.68

Since the <u>quadratic equation has two positive roots</u>, they can be the values of the length and the width, and the design is possible.
