Answer:
B. Graduated commission
Step-by-step explanation:
This statement is the definition of a graduated commission as it is a system of compensating sales people; their earnings depend on volume of sales. The more they sell the more the percentage of sales earned increases.
Commission on the other hand is an agent fee that a person pays so that the agent can execute a transaction.
Answer:
the answer to this is 1/2(5+b)
---------------------------------------------
Define x and y
---------------------------------------------
Let x be the amount of the cream (which has 2.5% of hydrocortisone)
Let y be the amount of the water-washable base. (which has 0% of hydrocortisone)
---------------------------------------------
Construct the 2 equations:
---------------------------------------------
Both x and y must add up to 120g
⇒ x + y = 120
Both x and y must add up to only 1% of hydrocortisone.
⇒0.025x + 0.0y = 0.01 x 120
⇒0.025x = 1.2
---------------------------------------------
Solve x and y:
---------------------------------------------
x + y = 120 ----------------- (equation 1)
0.025x = 1.2 ----------------- (equation 2)
---------------------------------------------
From equation 2:
---------------------------------------------
0.025x = 1.2
x = 1.2 ÷ 0.025
x = 48
---------------------------------------------
Substitute x = 48 into equation 1:
---------------------------------------------
x + y = 120
48 + y = 120
y = 120 - 48
y = 72
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 48g of 2.5% of the cream and 72g of the water washable base are needed to make 120g of the prescription.
