<u>Given:</u>
Zoe gets paid a 1% commission for every sale she makes in addition to base pay.
She sold $8,000 worth of computers on a day and made $140 that day.
<u>To find:</u>
A function P(x) representing total pay on a day where she sells x dollars worth of computers.
<u>Solution:</u>
To determine the function P(x) we need to determine how much Zoe's base pay per day is.
One day, she sold $8,000 worth of computers and made $140 that day.
She gets a commission of 1% for $8,000.
1% of $8,000 
So she got paid $140 out of which $80 was a commission.
So her base pay 
So Zoe's base pay is $60 a day.
P(x) is the sum of her base pay and 1% of the amount of computer sales she makes ($x).
So
, where x is the computer sales she makes in dollars. P(x) is represented in dollars.
Answer:
-1
Explanation:
Let the number be x.
Then the equation will be:
3(x+18) = 51
=> 3x + 54 = 51
=> 3x = 51 - 54
=> 3x = -3
=> x = -3/3
=> x = -1
So, the number you thought of is -1.
Answer:
b.) 104
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent formula:
x/y = p/100
where x is the fraction, y is the total, and p is the percent
This means:
x = number of games the team won
y = total number of games
p = percent the number of teams won
Let's plug these values into the equation:
x/y = p/100
x/160 = 65/100
Solve by cross-multiplying:
x/160 = 65/100
100(x) = 100x
160(65) = 10,400
100x = 10,400
/100 /100
x = 104
Therefore, the team won 104 games.
B. No, because it fails the vertical line test.
