We are given with:
Average height of plants to be at least 73 inches
Three plants with heights of
70, 71, 72
The inequality that can be used to determine the possible heights of the fourth plant is:
(70 + 71 + 72 + x) / 4 ≥ 73
Solving for x
x ≥ 79
Answer: Mary makes $1160, Steven makes $142.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Facts
MARY
8% commision on everything she sells
She sells a car for $14,500
The first question about Mary asks how much commision she makes. To find that, lets find 8% of 14,500
8% of 14,500= 0.08x14,500= 1160
Therefore, Mary makes $1,160 in commision.
STEVEN
Facts
He makes 15% in commision for the supplies he sells
He sells $950 in supplies
Money made =?
15% of 950=0.15x950=$142.50
