A store salesperson is paid 3% of his sales as a commission. He made sales of $2500. How much was his commission?​

Mathematics

PolarNik [594]2 years ago
7 0

1) Write 3% as 3/100

2) Since, finding the fraction of a number is same as multiplying the fraction with the number, we have:

\frac{3}{100} of 2500 = \frac{3}{100} × 2500

Therefore, the answer is 75

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 3÷100×2500 which will give you 75 as the answer.

Commission = $75

A bridge constructed over a bayou has a supporting arch in the shape of an inverted parabola. Find the equation of the parabolic
babymother [125]

Answer: f(x) = -0.016x² + 1.6x

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lenght of the road over the arch is 100m, we can consider a coordinate plane and say that the road starts at point (0,0) and finishes at (100,0). The vertice of the parabola is at point (50,40), because the maximum height is 40 and it is always in the middle point of the roots.

So, we have

(0,0) (50,40) (100,0)

A quadratic function is always on the form: f(x) = ax² + bx + c

0 = a0² + b0 + c

40 = a50² + b50 + c

0 = a100² + b100 + c

0 = a0² + b0 + c → c = 0 ∴

40 = a50² + b50

0 = a100² + b100

_________________________

2500a + 50b = 40 (*2)

10000a + 100b = 0

_________________________

5000a + 100b = 80

10000a + 100b = 0 (-)

__________________________

-5000a = 80

-a=80/5000

a=-0.016

∴

2500a + 50b = 40

2500.(-0.016) + 50b = 40

-40 + 50b = 40

50b = 80

b = 80/50

b = 1.6

This way f(x) = -0.016x² + 1.6x

Write an inequality for the graph
natima [27]
The open circle means the inequality will be greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤).
A closed circle means the inequality will be greater than (>) or less than (<)

An arrow pointing right to increasingly positive values means the inequality is getting greater (> or ≥)
A narrowing pointing left to increasingly negative values means the inequality is getting lesser (< or ≤)

So for this graph with an open circle and rightward pointing arrow, “x” will be some number on the number line greater than the first point of -38:
x > -38
