Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of sales each man had.
For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.
For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.
Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:
65x = 40x+300
Subtract 40x from each side:
65x-40x = 40x+300-40x
25x = 300
Divide both sides by 25:
25x/25 = 300/25
x = 12
<span>1. Make y the subject
a) 4y=12x+18
y = 3x + 4.5
b) 2x=7-3y
3y = -2x + 7
y = -2/3x + 7/3
2.
a) what is the equation of the line which passes through both (-2,-4) and (6,16)
slope = (16 + 4)/(6 +2) = 20/8 = 2.5
y = mx + b
-4 =2.5(-2) +b
-4 = -5 +b
b = 1
equation
y = 2.5x + 1
b) what is the equation of the line perpendicular to y= 1/2X + 7 passing through point (3,9)
</span>y= 1/2X + 7
slope = 1/2
slope of line perpendicular = -2
passing through point (3,9)
y = mx + b
9 = -2 (3) + b
b = 15
equation
y = -2x + 15
