Charlotte works at an electronics store as a salesperson. Charlotte earns a 10% commission on the total dollar amount of all pho

ne sales she makes, and earns a 4% commission on all computer sales. Charlotte had twice as much in computer sales as she had in phone sales and earned a total of $162 in commission. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the dollar amount of phone sales Charlotte made and the dollar amount of computer sales she made. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer: the system of equations are

0.1x + 0.04y = 162

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total dollar amount of the phone sales she makes.

Let y represent the total dollar amount of the computer sales she makes.

Charlotte earns a 10% commission on the total dollar amount of all phone sales she makes, and earns a 4% commission on all computer sales. If she earned a total of $162 in commission, it means that

0.1x + 0.04y = 162

Charlotte had twice as much in computer sales as she had in phone sales. This means that

y = 2x

select the correct answer. and the figure, angle k measures 45°. what is the measurement of angle c? 38° 45° 90° 98°.
LuckyWell [14K]

From the figure, we can conclude that the little triangle is an isosceles triangle, the greatest angle is 90 because ∠A = 90 and they are supplementary, therefore, using the triangle sum theorem:

\begin{gathered} m\angle J=m\angle K \\ m\angle K+m\angle K+90=180 \\ 2m\angle K=180-90 \\ 2m\angle K=90 \\ m\angle K=\frac{90}{2} \\ m\angle K=45 \end{gathered}

The general solution to the second-order differential equation y′′+10y=0 is in the form y(x)=c1cosβx+c2sinβx. Find the value of
allsm [11]

Answer:β=√10 or 3.16 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of β :

  • we will differentiate the y(x) equation twice to get a second order differential equation.
  • We compare our second order differential equation with the Second order differential equation specified in the problem to get the value of β

y(x)=c1cosβx+c2sinβx

we use the derivative of a sum rule to differentiate since we have an addition sign in our equation.

Also when differentiating Cosβx and Sinβx we should note that this involves function of a function. so we will differentiate  βx in each case and multiply with the differential of c1cosx and c2sinx respectively.

lastly the differential of sinx= cosx and for cosx = -sinx.

Knowing all these we can proceed to solving the problem.

y=c1cosβx+c2sinβx

y'= β×c1×-sinβx+β×c2×cosβx  

y'=-c1βsinβx+c2βcosβx

y''=β×-c1β×cosβx + (β×c2β×-sinβx)

y''= -c1β²cosβx -c2β²sinβx

factorize -β²

y''= -β²(c1cosβx +c2sinβx)

y(x)=c1cosβx+c2sinβx

therefore y'' = -β²y

y''+β²y=0

now we compare this with the second order D.E provided in the question

y''+10y=0

this means that β²y=10y

β²=10

B=√10  or 3.16(2 d.p)
