Maybe write it down, like how you see other math problems.
And then solve it!
:D
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Natalie basic salary is $300 per week. She is paid a commission of 30% of her total sales for the week. Therefore her total weekly salary per week is given by:
Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions
If Natalie makes $225 in sales, her commission = 30% of $225 = 0.3 × $225 = $67.5
Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $67.5
Total weekly salary = $367.5
b) If Natalie makes $x in sales, her commission = 30% of $x = 0.3 × $x = $0.3x
Total weekly salary = Basic salary + Commissions = $300 + $0.3x
Total weekly salary = $(300 + 0.3x)
So to find the x vertex u have to apply the formula x= -b/2a so it will be
x= -(-4)/2(1)
x= 4/2
x= 2
and to find the y vertex u just substitute the x value into the original equation so it will be
y= (2)^2-4(2)+1
y= 4-8+1
y= -3
so the coordinates of the vertex are (2,-3)
