Answer:
Correct expression: 85 + 0.06(t - 400)
Correct earnings: $91
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression Joan wrote is incorrect because instead, $85, she put $400 as her base salary. The correct expression would be 85 + 0.06(t - 400), where 85 is her base pay in dollars, and t - 400 represents her sales in dollars exceeding $400.
If Joan's sales were $500, she would not make $424.90, but
85 + 0.06(t - 400)
85 + 0.06(500 - 400)
85 + 0.06(100)
85 + 6
$91
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Andy
Answer:
The final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation is x^2 -3 = -2x
Rewriting it in quadratic form as:- x^2 +2x -3 = 0.
a = 1, b = 2, c = -3.
Using Quadratic formula as follows:- x = ( -b ± √(b² -4ac) ) / (2a)
x = ( -2 ± √(4 -4*1*-3) ) / (2*1)
x = ( -2 ± √(4 +12) ) / (2)
x = ( -2 ± √(16) ) / (2)
x = ( -2 ± 4 ) / (2)
x = (-2+4) / (2) OR x = (-2-4) / (2)
x = 2/2 OR x = -6/2
x = 1 OR x = -3
Hence, final answers are x = 1 OR x = -3.
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25/0.375=0.666666666666666666666667
When a line and a curve are tangent to each other, they are joined together by 1 point (x,y). So, you equate both equations either in terms of x or y. For this problem, let's equate in terms of y.
y = k - x
y = x² + 3x + 1
k - x = x² + 3x + 1
k = x² + 3x + x + 1
k = x² + 4x + 1
This would be the value of k. Since we are not given the common point, it can only be expressed in terms of x or y.
