Answer:

j(s) = 0.05s -500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base\ Salary = 2000

Commission = 5\% on Sales over 50000

Required

Determine the function j(s) for sales over 50000

Represent the total sales in a month with s.

Sales over 50000 in that month will be: s - 50000

So, the function j(s) is:

j(s) = Base Amount + Commission * Sales over 50000

j(s) = 2000 + 5\% * (s - 50000)

Convert % to decimal

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05 * (s - 50000)

Open bracket

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05 * s - 0.05 * 50000

j(s) = 2000 + 0.05s - 2500

Collect Like Terms

j(s) = 0.05s - 2500 + 2000

j(s) = 0.05s -500

garri49 [273]
Given:
square with sides measuring 7 cm.
3 triangles attached to three sides of the square. A line bisecting one triangle is measured at 4 cm.

Area of a square = s² = (7cm)² = 49 cm²

Area of a triangle = hb/2 = (4cm*7cm)/2 = 14 cm² 
Area of the 3 triangles = 14 cm² x 3 = 42 cm²

Total area of the logo = 49 cm² + 42 cm² = 91 cm²

Ques
natulia [17]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Pythagorean triple the square on the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

A

longest side = 10 ⇒ 10² = 100

6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100

A is a Pythagorean triple

B

longest side = 17 ⇒ 17² = 289

8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289

B is a Pythagorean triple

C

longest side = 9 ⇒ 9² = 81

5² + 8² = 25 + 64 = 89

89 ≠ 81

C is not a Pythagorean triple

D

longest side = 13 ⇒ 13² = 169

5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169

D is a Pythagorean triple
