Answer:
1. 32, 64, 128
2. 29, 35, 41
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
A) A tangent is never a secant.
Explanation:
A tangent is a line that touches a circle in exactly one point. A secant is a line that touches a circle in two different points.
Since a tangent only touches once and a secant touches twice, there is no way a tangent can be a secant.
Define the two friends as person A and person B.
Let x = the sales in a week.
Person A:
$125 per week plus 18% commission on sales.
Earnings in a week on x sales is
125 + 0.18x
Person B:
$85 per week plus 21% commission on sales.
Earnings in a week on x sales is
85 + 0.21x
For the two earnings to be equal,
85 + 0.21x = 125 + 0.18x
0.03x = 40
x = 40/0.03 = $1333.33
Answer: $1,333.33
