Trever Goetz is a salesperson who is paid a monthly salary of $500 plus a 2% commission on sales. How much must he sell to earn

dedylja [7]

Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

now, we know Trever makes $500 in salary and 2% on sales, let's say he sells "x" amount, how much is 2% of x? well (2/100) * x, or 0.02x.

Therefore Trever's earnings are 500 + 0.02x, his salary plus his commission.

to earn a total of 2,000, then 500 + 0.02x = 2000, thus

$\bf 500+0.02x=2000\implies 0.02x=1500\implies x=\cfrac{1500}{0.02}\\\\\\ x=75000$

2. Ms. Rich is creating a walkway around her rectangular garden. If the walkway will be 3 feet wide, and the garden is 10ft by 1

Yuki888 [10]

The area of the walkway is 168 square feet if Ms. Rich is creating a walkway around her rectangular garden. If the walkway will be 3 feet wide, and the garden is 10ft by 12ft.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as the space occupied by the rectangle, which is planner 2-dimensional geometry.

The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is given by:

Area of rectangle = length × width

The dimensions of the garden = 10 ft by 12 ft

Area = 10×12 = 120 square feet

The width of the walkway = 3 feet

If we create a walkway around the garden, it will be a rectangle around the garden.

So the dimensions for the bigger rectangle = (3+10+3) ft by (3+12+3) ft

Area of the bigger rectangle = 16×18 = 288 square feet

So the area of the walkway = 288 - 120 = 168 square feet

Thus, the area of the walkway is 168 square feet if Ms. Rich is creating a walkway around her rectangular garden. If the walkway will be 3 feet wide, and the garden is 10ft by 12ft.
