7 0

Answer:

0.595

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percent error is as follows

Actual area is

= (720-yd × 120-yd)  

=  86,400 square yards.

Estimated area is

= (700-yd × 50-yd)  

=  35,000 square yards

Now

Error = (86,400 - 35,000)

=  51,400 square yards

Percent error is

= 51,400 ÷ 86,400

= 0.595

A sales person in a stereo store is given a choice of two different compensation plans. One plan offers a weekly salary of $250
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

<em>The salesperson needs to sell 10 stereos to make the same money on both plans</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll analyze both choices for the compensation plans of a salesperson.

One plan offers a fixed weekly salary of $250 plus a $25 commission for each stereo sold. The function than models this plan is:

P1=250+25x

Where x is the number of stereos sold.

The other plan offers no fixed salary but a $50 commission on each stereo sold. The function of this plan is:

P2=50x

To find the equilibrium point for both plans, we make P1=P2:

250+25x=50x

Simplifying:

25x=250

Solving:

x = 250 / 25 = 10

The salesperson needs to sell 10 stereos to make the same money on both plans
