Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of items Steve sells

Let y = salary earned

Create two equations:

Vacuum sales:  y = 500 + 100x

Encyclopedia sales: y = 300 + 200x

Equal the equations and solve for x to find the number of items Steve needs to sell for the two salaries to be the same:

500 + 100x = 300 + 200x

Subtract 300 from both sides:  200 + 100x = 200x

Subtract 100x from both sides: 200 = 100x

Divide both sides by 100:  2 = x

Therefore, Steve would have to sell 2 items for the two salaries to be the same.

Answer: 04 items (02 each)

Step-by-step explanation:
Steve's base salary is $500 and $300 respectively for selling vacuum cleaner and encyclopedia. Along with that his bonus is $100 and $200 respectively. If he sells 02 items each, his earnings would be as follows:
For 02 vacuum cleaner: 500+100+100
= $700
For 02 encyclopedia: 300+200+200
= $700

Janet is drawing the path formed by the parametric equations x=2+3 sin t and y=1-1/2cos t. Which curve did she draw??
frosja888 [35]
Sin²t +cos²t =1

<span> x=2+3 sin t
sin t=(x-2)/3

</span><span>y=1-1/2cos t
y-1= - (cos t)/2 
cos t =-(y-1)/(1/2)

</span>(x-2)²/3² + (y-1)²/(1/2)² = 1
