His total sales were "x"
now, we know that 3.5% of "x" plus 5% of "x", will add up to his total commission, including sales of 6500 or less or more
so the commission for 6500 or less, is 3.5% of "x" or (3.5/100)*x -> 0.035x
the commission for above 6500 is 5% or (5/100) * x --> 0.05x
we know, that both commissions added together, are $415
thus
0.035x + 0.05x = 415 <----- solve for "x"
So, first we input 6
24 - 6 = 18
So we now need to find the square root of 18
If you're allowed to use a calculator, the square root is 4.242
But if you don't, let's get as close as we can:
√(9 * 2)
Because the square root of 9 is 3:
3 * √2
Answer:
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
[z^4/6²]^-3 = z^-12/6^-6 = 6^6/z^12
Answer: The car has to sell for $20000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price that the car would have to sell for in order for these two job opportunities to pay Jim the same amount.
Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be
10/100 × x = 0.1x
Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week plus a 7.5% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be
500 + 0.075x
For boths pays to be the same, it means that
0.1x = 500 + 0.075x
0.1x - 0.075x = 500
0.025x = 500
x = 500/0.025
x = 20000
The car has to sell for $20000
