Rhonda sold five appliances this week. She sold a stove for $800.00, a refrigerator for $1,250.00, a microwave for $120.00, a di

shwasher for $625.00, and a blender for $65.00. Rhonda earns 15% commission only on the amount of money from weekly sales that EXCEEDS $2000.00, not on th initial $2000.00. Before taxes, how much money should she receive in her commission check?

The expression for calculating a percentage is whatever% of anything is simply (whatever/100) * anything.


The total 800 + 1250 + 120 + 625 + 65 equals 2860.

Rhonda does not earn a commission on the first 2000, only on the excess amount, which is 860.

Calculating 15% of 860 involves (15/100) * 860.

Answer:

$129

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total from Rhonda's sales, consider:

stove: $800.00

refrigerator: $1,250.00

microwave: $120.00

dishwasher: $625.00

blender: $65.00

Total sales = 800.00 + 1250.00 + 120.00 + 625.00 + 65.00 = $2860.00

As indicated in the question, Rhonda only receives a 15% commission on sales exceeding $2000.00.

To find the amount exceeding $2000.00, you deduce:

$2860.00 - $2000.00 = $860.00 (the commissionable amount for Rhonda)

Thus: $860 x 15% = $860 x 0.15 = $129

The main span of Bridge A ​(2300 ​feet) is​ _____ percent shorter than the main span of Bridge B ​(4700 ​feet).
Svet_ta [4341]
To determine this answer, you need to calculate the percentage change.
This involves dividing the difference in lengths by the original length. We begin with the main bridge.

4700 - 2300 = 2400
2400 divided by 4700 equals approximately 51.1% shorter.

Which of the following functions is graphed below?
Svet_ta [4341]

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question is incomplete; please refer to the attached document for the full details.

In the attached graph,

The parent function is defined as an absolute value function,

f(x) = |x|

When this graph is moved four units to the left, the translation rule becomes,

f(x) → f(x + 4)

Consequently, the new function following this translation is,

g(x) = f(x + 4) = |x + 4|

Now, with the graph shifted down by two units, the translated function becomes,

h(x) = g(x) - 2

h(x) = |x + 4| - 2

When reformulated as an equation, the graph can be represented by

⇒ y = |x + 4| - 2

Thus, Option (B) is the correct answer.

The measure of central angle QRS is StartFraction 8 pi Over 9 EndFraction radians. What is the area of the shaded sector? 36Pi u
babunello [3666]

The illustration is omitted. Please see the attachment below.

Answer:

The area of the shaded sector is 144π square units.

Step-by-step breakdown:

Given:

The central angle for the sector is, \theta=\frac{8\pi}{9}\ rad

The circle's radius is, R=18\ units

The area of a sector with radius 'R' and angle \theta can be determined with:

A=\frac{1}{2}R^2\theta

Substituting \theta=\frac{8\pi}{9},R=18 gives

A=\frac{1}{2}\times (18)^2\times \frac{8\pi}{9}\\\\A=(\frac{324\times 4}{9})\pi\\\\A=(36\times 4)\pi\\\\A=144\pi\ units^2

Thus, the area of the shaded sector calculates to 144π square units.

A rectangular schoolyard is to be fenced in using the wall of the school for one side and 150
lawyer [4039]

Answer:

Part 1) The equation is A(x)=150x-2x^2

Part 2) When x=40 m, the area of the schoolyard is A=2,800 m^2

Part 3) The valid domain consists of all real numbers exceeding zero and below 75 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Formulate an expression for A(x)

Let

x -----> the length of the rectangular school yard

y ---> the width of the rectangular school yard

It is known that

The perimeter for the fencing (taking the school wall as one side) is

P=2x+y

P=150\ m

thus

150=2x+y

y=150-2x -----> this is equation A

The area of the rectangular school yard is

A=xy ----> this is equation B

Substituting equation A into equation B yields

A=x(150-2x)

A=150x-2x^2

Change to function notation

A(x)=150x-2x^2

Part 2) What is the area when x=40?

With x equal to 40 m

substitute the value into the expression from Part 1 to determine A

A(40)=150(40)-2(40^2)

A(40)=2,800\ m^2    

Part 3) What would be a suitable domain for A(x) in this scenario?

We understand that

A signifies the area of the rectangular school yard

x characterizes the length of the rectangular school yard

It follows that

A(x)=150x-2x^2

This forms a vertical parabola opening downwards

The vertex indicates a maximum point

The x-coordinate of the vertex corresponds to the length that maximizes the area

The y-coordinate of the vertex denotes the maximum area

The vertex corresponds to (37.5, 2812.5)

Refer to the accompanying figure

Consequently,

The peak area achieved is 2,812.5 m^2

The x-intercepts are located at x=0 m and x=75 m

The domain for A is the range -----> (0, 75)

All real numbers greater than zero and less than 75 meters
