Answer:

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Total acre = 2,249

Let

Farmer Anne's land = x

Farmer Cassius = 3x

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

x + 3x + 9x = 2,249

13x = 2,249

x = 173

Farmer Anne's land = x = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 3x

= 3(173)

= 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

= 9(173)

= 1,557 acres

Therefore,

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

13. Maria earns $8 per hour plus a 5% commission on the price
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Inequality:

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solution:

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the weekly sales she must make to reach her goal.

Given;

Pay rate = $8

Weekly total work hours = 15 hours

Commission on sales = 5% = 0.05

Total weekly earnings is;

8×15 + 0.05×x

120 + 0.05x

Minimum Weekly target earnings = $200

So;

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solving the inequality equation;

0.05x ≥ 200 - 120

0.05x ≥ 80

x ≥ 80/0.05

x ≥ 1600

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600
