Answer:
Inequality:
120 + 0.05x ≥ 200
Solution:
x ≥ $1,600
Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the weekly sales she must make to reach her goal.
Given;
Pay rate = $8
Weekly total work hours = 15 hours
Commission on sales = 5% = 0.05
Total weekly earnings is;
8×15 + 0.05×x
120 + 0.05x
Minimum Weekly target earnings = $200
So;
120 + 0.05x ≥ 200
Solving the inequality equation;
0.05x ≥ 200 - 120
0.05x ≥ 80
x ≥ 80/0.05
x ≥ 1600
x ≥ $1,600
Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600
The fifteenth customer will be the first because 5x3=15
Answer: x 
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
Distance traveled by car A =x, (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t
x=10 m/st ⇒ x=10t (1)
Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3
x=15(t-3) (2)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
x=10t
x=15(t-3)
We solve this system of equations:
10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9
t-3=9-3=6
x=10 t=10 (9)=90
Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.
