Question

A salesperson earns $200 a week plus a 4% commission on her sales. Which equation models the relationship between her sales in a given week, s, and her weekly earnings, e?

a. e=200s+4/100
b. e = 200s + 4
c. e = 4s + 200
d. e=4/100s + 200

Answer 1

D- e=4/100s+200

Explanation:

D as in dripward

Answer 2

For this case we have:

Let:

• s: Profit from sales in a given week

• e: Seller's weekly profit

`e = 200 + c`

Where "c" represents the commission.

The commission on sales can be observed with the application of a rule of three:

s ---------> 100%

c ---------> 4%

`c =(4(s))/(100)`

`c =(4s)/(100)`

Thus, e is given by:

`e = 200 +(4s)/(100)`

Answer:

The equation that models the relationship between her sales in a given week, s, and her weekly earnings, e is:

`e = 200 +(4s)/(100)`
