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.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

4 M + 2 N = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

If we name "M" the number of tables for four people, and "N" the number of tables for two people, then the total number of people to be seated using M tables (of four people) would be the product "4 * M".

Similarly, the total number of people to be seated if the owner has N number of two person tables, would be: "2 * N".

Therefore, if the owner has M four people tables and N two person tables, the total number of people seated at the restaurant would be the addition:

4 * M + 2 * N. Since he wants this number to be 120, we complete the equation making this expression equal to 120:

4 * M + 2 * N = 120

ankoles [38]
P(x > 6.9) = 1 - P(x < 6.9) = 1 - P[z < (6.9 - 5.1)/0.9] = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275.

Therefore P(x > 6) is about 2.5%
