1) find the corresponding y values for when x = 0 and when x = 4,
when x = 0, y = 4
when x = 4, y = 4
the coordinates are (0,4) and (4,4)
2) to calculate the average rate of change, find the slope of the two points:
(0,4) (4,4)
(change in y) 4 - 4 = 0
(change in x) 4 - 0 = 4
0/4 = 0
the average rate of change is 0!
Answer:
B. $450
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of commission is the commission rate (3%) times the amount of sales to which it is applied ($5000). Garrett's commission last week would be ...
0.03 × $5000 = $150
He is also paid $300 each week in addition to his commission, so his total pay last week was ...
pay = salary + commission
pay = $300 +150 = $450
Y = -5x + 9
y = 5x + 7
5x + 7 = -5x + 9
5x + 5x = 9 - 7
10x = 2
x = 2/10 reduces to 1/5
y = 5x + 7
y = 5(1/5) + 7
y = 1 + 7
y = 8
solution is (1/5,8)
