Gerald earns $60.00 per week selling magazine subscriptions. For each subscription he sells, he earns 15% on his total sales (S). If he wants to earn at least $360.00 next week, how much does he need to sell?
A.
S > $2,800
B.
S > $45
C.
S > $300
D.
S > $2,000

Gerald must sell at least $2000 dollars worth of subscriptions next week.

Step-by-step explanation:

$ = 60.00 + (S × 0.15)

First, plug the 360.00 into the $ variable.

360.00 = 60.00 + (S × 0.15)

Then, subtract 60.00 from both sides

300.00 = (S × 0.15)

Finally, divide both sides by 0.15

S = 300.00/0.15 = 2000

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

none.
