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

aev [14]

Answer:

There are total 30 books in the 5 feet high stack of books.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Given, Each note book is 2 inches thick, How many notebooks do you think it would take to make a stack that is 5 feet high

Solution

Thickness of each book = \frac{2}{12}  = \frac{1}{6}

The total height of the book stack is 5 feet.

The number of books in the stack is equal to total height of the stack divided by the thickness of one book

Number of books in five feet high stack is

\frac{5}{\frac{1}{6} } \\5 * \frac{6}{1} \\30

Hence, there are total 30 books in the 5 feet high stack of books.
