The salesman earns $850 per automobile he sells.

Since x represents the amount of automobiles the salesman sells, we can apply the commission as a coefficient to this variable. Therefore, the total commission that the salesman earns can be represented by $850x.

The bonus cheque is only received if the salesman's commission income is <em>at least </em>$6,800. 'at least' means that the salesman can still receive the cheque if his commission is exactly $6,800. The sign that we can use for this situation is the greater than or equal to sign, ≥.

The inequality that shows the commission income needed for the cheque is $850x ≥ $6,800. However, this question asks for the number of automobiles the salesman must sell to get the cheque.

Divide both sides by $850, as that represents his sales from one commission:

x ≥ 8

The inequality x ≥ 8 represents the amount of automobiles the salesman will need to sell to get the bonus cheque.

Find all roots: x^3-7x^2-12x = 0
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The roots are  0, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3-7x^2-12x = 0   Take out x:

x(x^2 - 7x - 12) = 0  Factor the expression in the brackets:

x(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0

x = 0 or x - 3 = 0 or x - 4 = 0, so

The roots are  0, 3 and 4.

Answer:

Then the total area is  116 cm^2 which agrees with answer D

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice we need to calculate the area of two rectangles (one larger at the bottom and a smaller one on top)

The Area of a rectangle is the product: base x height

In our case :

Area of Big rectangle = 12 cm x 7 cm = 84 cm^2

Area of smaller rectangle = 8 cm x 4 cm = 32 cm^2

Then the total area is: 84 cm^2 + 32 cm^2 = 116 cm^2
