4. candice has been hired as a saleswoman. she is paid a flat rate of $425 each week and earns an additional $17.75 commission for each sale. if her
goal is to make $993 in one week, how many sales must candice make? (2 points)

Candace must make 32 sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can describe Candice weekly pay as a first degree function.

In our function, each sale n is the independent variable and her pay P is the the dependent variable. P is dependent of n, so we are going to write as P(n).

So, we can model the equation of P as a function of n by the following equation:

P(n) = 425 + 17.75n,

where, as the problem states, 425 is the flat rate and 17.75 is her comission for each sale n.

Now, the question is how many sales must Candace make to make $993 in one week. So, we want P(n) to be equals to $993 and we have to find n.

993 = 425 + 17.75n

Now we just need to solve this equation

993-425 = 17.75n

568 = 17.75n

n = 568/17.75

n = 32

So, to make $993 in one week, Candace must make 32 sales.

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
