Answer:

0.925 or 92.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

y=a(1-b)^x

decay factor is 1-b <- and the part we care about

b is 7.5%=0.075

1-0.075

=0.925

I'm a little rusty on exponential rates, but I hope this helps!

Leona [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A salesperson at a car dealership has a salary of 900 dollars per week plus 3% commission on sales if a salesperson has sales of $72000 in one week, it means that the amount of commission that was received by the salesperson would be

3/100 × 72000 = 0.03 × 72000 = $2160

Therefore, the total amount of pay that the salesperson would receive for the week would be

900 + 2160 = $3060

My friend needed help with this and I found the height through the theorem but can't figure out how to get the base of the overa
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...

... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21

Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:

... AC/AD = AB/AC

... AB = AC²/AD

... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle

_____

Then the area (A) is ...

... A = (1/2)bh

... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units

_____

As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...

... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB

You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.
