Answer:

<em>The second job pays the best.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of sales during the year is $1000000.

First job pays $350 per week plus 2% commission on all sales.

There are <em>52 weeks in a year</em>.

So, <u>the total amount of payment from first job</u>

=(\$350\times 52)+(2\%\ of\ \$1000000)\\ \\ =(\$ 18200)+(0.02\times \$1000000)\\ \\ =\$18200+\$ 20000\\ \\ =\$ 38200

The second job pays $1,200 per month and 2.5% commission on all sales.

There are <em>12 months in a year</em>.

So, <u>the total amount of payment from second job</u>

=(\$1200\times 12)+(2.5\%\ of\ \$1000000)\\ \\ =(\$ 14400)+(0.025\times \$1000000)\\ \\ =\$14400+\$ 25000\\ \\ =\$ 39400

As \$ 39400>\$ 38200

Thus, the second job pays the best.

If the year is 52 weeks long (the average amount of weeks in a year). 
$350.00*52= $18,200.00
$1200.00*12= $14,400.00 
2.5% of 1,000,000=25,000  
2% of 1,000,000=20,000  
$18,200.00+20,000= $38,200.00
$14,400.00+25,000= $39,400.00
The second (2nd) job pays better.

A rectangle has a length that is three feet more than twice it's width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 78 feet. State the val
ivann1987 [24]

Let the width of the rectangle be 'w'

According to the question length of the rectangle (l) is three feet more than twice it's width;

\longrightarrow l = (2w + 3) ft

Perimeter of rectangle = 78 ft

Formula of perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Width)

So,

\rm \implies 2(Length + Width) = 78 \\  \\  \rm \implies 2(2w + 3 + w) = 78 \\  \\  \rm \implies 2(3w + 3) = 78 \\  \\  \rm \implies 2 \times 3(w + 1) = 78 \\  \\  \rm \implies 6(w + 1) = 78 \\  \\  \rm \implies w + 1 =  \dfrac{78}{6}  \\  \\  \rm \implies w + 1 = 13 \\  \\  \rm \implies w = 13 - 1 \\  \\  \rm \implies w = 12 \: ft

\therefore Width of the rectangle (w) = 12 ft

prisoha [69]
If I said I had .25 cents you would know I had a quarter of a dollar or 1/4th of a dollar, .25 cents could also be thought of as 25% of a dollar.

so in this case if the "dollar" is x and the "quarter" is .88 you could say you have 88% of x

Use the net as an aid to compute the surface area (rounded to the nearest integer) ofvthe triangular pyramid with an equilateral
otez555 [7]

Answer:

A) 106 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area is the area of the base triangular face and the three lateral faces.

The base triangular face has length of its base to be b=6 ft.

The height of this triangle is 5.2 ft.

The area of this triangle  is

Area=\frac{1}{2}\base \times height

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 5.2

Area=15.6ft^2=16ft^2 to the nearest integer

The area of the three lateral face is

Area=3\times \frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 10=90ft^2

The total surface area is therefore 90+16=106 square feet
