Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each sale

sman earns his paycheck differently. Salesman A works strictly on commission. He earns $65 per sale, with a maximum weekly commission of $1,300. Salesman B earns a weekly base salary of $300, plus a commission of $40 per sale. There are no limits on the amount of commission he can earn. Salesman C does not earn any commission. His weekly salary is $900.
If Salesman A has exactly

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of sales each man had.

For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale so,65x.

For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale so, 40x.  We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.

65x = 40x+300

65x-40x = 40x+300-40x

25x = 300

25x/25 = 300/25

x = 12

The function below shows the number of car owners f(t), in thousands, in a city in different years t: f(t) = 0.25t^2 - 0.5t + 3.
Bingel [31]
The average rate of change (m) is the ratio of the change in function value to the width of the interval:
  m = (f(6) - f(2))/(6 - 2)

To compute this, we need to compute f(6) and f(2).
  f(6) = (0.25*6 -0.5)*6 +3.5 = 9.5
  f(2) = (0.25*2 - 0.5)*2 +3.5 = 3.5
Then the average rate of change is
  m = (9.5 - 3.5)/(6 - 2) = 6/4 = 1.5

The average rate of change is 1.5 thousand owners per year.

OverLord2011 [107]

Given :

Price of cereal without off, C = $2.88 .

Percentage off, P = 20% .

To Find :

Price after applying 20% off.

Solution :

Final price = Initial price - 20 % of initial price

F = 2.88 - 2.88\times \dfrac{20}{100}\\\\F=2.88-0.576\\\\F=\$ 2.304

Therefore, final price after sale is $2.304 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

Maya can run 18 miles in 3 hours, and she can bike 18 miles in 2 hours. When Maya biked for 3 hours and then ran for 1 hour and
solmaris [256]

Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation: Speed is distance/time

18/3 = 6 miles per hour running

18/2 = 9 miles per hour biking

3 hour bike = 27 miles

1.50 hour run (0.50 because 30 minutes is half of an hour) = 9 miles

27 + 9/3 + 1.50 = 36/4.5 or 8

A commuter railway has 800 passengers a day and charges each one 2 dollars. ?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

I= -20p^2 + 840p

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ticket price is $2 there are 800 passengers daily, but every $0.1 increase in ticket price the number of passengers will be decreased by 2.  

You can put information into these equations of:

passenger- = (800-2x)

ticket price= p = $2 + 0.1x

Income is calculated by multiplying the number of the passenger with the ticket price. The answer will be expressed in terms of the ticket price, so we need to remove x from the passenger equation.

p= $2 +0.1x

p-$2 = 0.1x

x= 10p- $20

If  p= ticket price, the function for the number of passengers it will be:

passenger = (800-2x)

passenger = 800- 2(10p- $20)

passenger =800- 20p+40

passenger =840- 20p

The function of I will be:

I= passenger x ticket price

I=  840- 20p * p

I= -20p^2 + 840p
