The salary of the real estate broker = $18,000
Commission earned on total sales = 4% or 0.04
Total income earnings = $55,000
Let the total sales be = x
Equation becomes :




Hence, the real estate broker must sell $925,000 worth of real estate to earn $55,000.
Answer:
Not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
To many equal signs!
You can get all the terms on one side, and then solve for x by any means:

Factor out a -2:

Factor this equation:

I will use the AC method. To use it, first multiply a and c (in ax^2 + bx +c):

Now, look for two numbers that multiply to -12 and add to -11. Obviously these numbers are -12 and 1. (-12*1 = -12 and -12+1 = -11). Now, because of rules, you set it up in a Punnett square:
4x^2 -12x
x -3
Now, we find common factors of the terms in rows:
_x_______-3__
4x| 4x^2 -12x
1 | x -3
So, you can use this to write an equivalent expression to the quadratic given:

Now, we known the factors are (solve for x):
3 and -1/4.
Answer: The polynomial that describes the projectile's height is:
P(t) = - 16t*2 + 300t
For t = 1 second we have:
P(1) = - 16*1^2 + 300*1
P(1) = 284 ft
The height of the projectile after 1 second is 284 feet.
