The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200
<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.
Let y represent the total sales for x weekly sales, m represent the commision and b represent the basic salary. Hence:
400 = 1000m + b (1)
Also:
300 = 500m + b (2)
Hence:
m = 0.2 = 20%, b = $200
The commission is 20% of sales, the basic salary is $200 and the equation is y = 0.2x + 200

Answer:
(a) x = 
(b) x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
A. sum of angles in a polygon = (n - 2) 180
The polygon given is an irregular pentagon, where n = 5
So that;
sum of angles in a pentagon = (5 - 2) 180
= 3 x 180
= 
Thus,
x + 90 + 76 + 110 + 136 =
x + 412 =
x = - 412
x =
B. The polygon given is an irregular pentagon, where n = 5.
Let the supplementary angle with angle 38 be represented by y,
y + 38 = 180
y = 180 - 38
= 
y =
Let the supplementary angle with x be represented by z, so that;
z + 72 + 120 + 100 + 142 =
z + 434 =
z = - 434
= 
z =
But, x + z = 
Then;
x + =
x = -
=
x =
This question is asking for a list of fractions, that when you pull out common factors, they will all simplify back to the 8/5 fraction.
So if 2 is the common factor, you multiply the numerator and denominator by 2.
2: (8*2)/(5*2)= 16/10
3: (8*3)/5*3)= 24/15
4: (8*4)/(5*4)= 32/20
5: (8*5)/(5*5)= 40/25
10: (8*10)/5*10)= 80/50
Eloise's Potential List:
16/10, 24/15, 32/20, 40/25, 80/50
If you simplify any of these fractions above, you will get 8/5 again.
To work backwards:
80/50: 10 goes into 80, 10 goes into 50= 8/5
16/10: 2 goes into 16, 2 goes into 10= 8/5
Hope this helps! :)
3/20 is 15% so that's bigger
