The expression can be written as the inequality:

300+0.05s≥500

300$ is made per week, so we start off with

300

He also makes 5% or 0.05 from his sales, so we add in the expression 0.05x (where s is equal to his sales volume for the week)

300+0.05s

If he wants to make at least 500$ weekly, then the total of the base salary plus the commission has to be 'greater than or equal to 500.

300+0.05s≥500

Lets solve for s now...

300+0.05s≥500
subtract 300 from both sides
0.05s≥200
Divide both sides by 0.05

$300 per week. 0.05%=5%
First, we have 300+0.05s≥500

300+0.05s≥500

300 0.05s-300 ≥500-300
0.05s<span>≥200</span>
Divide each side by 0.05
s≥4000

How can I create a word problem with the following expressions <br><br> 15+2d<br><br> 200-4m
Alenkasestr [34]
For the first expression
15 + 2d
A possible word problem would be this:
A person saves $2 per day of money. Before he started saving, he had $15 dollars set aside. Look for the expression that expresses the total amount of money saved in terms of the number of days passed

The second expression is
200 - 2m
A possible word problem would be this:
The distance from school to the park is 200m. A kid riding a bike is traveling at a speed of 2m/s from the school to the park. Write an expression for the distance remaining between the park and the kid.<span />

In 2010, the population of a city was 161,000. From 2010 to 2015, the population grew by 8%. From 2015 to 2020, it fell by 6.7%.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

99%

Step-by-step explanation:

2010 population = 161,000

From 2010 to 2015, the population grew by 8%.

2010 to 2015 = 161,000 + (8% of 161,000)

= 161,000 + (0.08 * 161,000)

= 161,000 + 12,880

= 173,880

2010 to 2015 = 173,880

From 2015 to 2020, it fell by 6.7%

2015 to 2020 = 173,880 - (6.7% of 173,880)

= 173,880 - (0.067 * 173,880)

= 173,880 - 11,649.96

= 162,230.04

2015 to 2020 = 162,230.04

what percent did the city grow from 2010 to 2020.

= 161,000 / 162,230.04 × 100

= 0.9924179270374 × 100

= 99.241792703743

Approximately, 99% to the nearest whole number

M is a degree 3 polynomial with m ( 0 ) = 53.12 and zeros − 4 and 4 i . Find an equation for m with only real coefficients (i.E.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Therefore the required polynomial is

M(x)=0.83(x³+4x²+16x+64)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that M is a polynomial of degree 3.

So, it has three zeros.

Let the polynomial be

M(x) =a(x-p)(x-q)(x-r)

The two zeros of the polynomial are -4 and 4i.

Since 4i is a complex number. Then the conjugate of 4i is also a zero of the polynomial i.e -4i.

Then,

M(x)= a{x-(-4)}(x-4i){x-(-4i)}

      =a(x+4)(x-4i)(x+4i)

      =a(x+4){x²-(4i)²}      [ applying the formula (a+b)(a-b)=a²-b²]

      =a(x+4)(x²-16i²)

      =a(x+4)(x²+16)      [∵i² = -1]

      =a(x³+4x²+16x+64)

Again given that M(0)= 53.12 . Putting x=0 in the polynomial

53.12 =a(0+4.0+16.0+64)

\Rightarrow a = \frac{53.12}{64}

      =0.83

Therefore the required polynomial is

M(x)=0.83(x³+4x²+16x+64)
