His new employer has offered Malcom Davis a choice of profit-sharing plans. For Plan A, he can receive 1/90 of the company’s gross income. For Plan B, he can receive 1/60 of the company’s profit. Gross income is the total amount the company takes in. Profit is the difference of the gross income and expenses. The company’s expenses for one month are $100,000.

A) Write an equation for finding the gross income that would give Malcom Davis the same amount of money with either plan.

B) Solve the equation from Exercise A and interpret the solution.

C) How much would Malcom Davis receive when the two plans are the same?

D) If the gross income of the company is less than the amount from Part B, which plan would be better for Malcom Davis? Show work to support your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

Malcom Davis earnings is an illustration of equations and proportions.

The equation is: [tex]\mathbf{\frac{1}{90}G= \frac{1}{60}(G- 100000)}[/tex]The gross income must be $300000, for Dave to earn the same amount with either plan.His earning is $3333.33 when the plans are the same.

Let the profit be P, and the gross income be G.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{P= G - 100000}[/tex]

(a) The equations

For plan A, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{A = \frac{1}{90}G}[/tex] ----1/90 of the company's gross income

For plan B, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{B = \frac{1}{60}P}[/tex]  ----1/90 of the company's profit

When both are the same, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{A= B}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{1}{90}G= \frac{1}{60}P}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{P= G - 100000}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{1}{90}G= \frac{1}{60}(G- 100000)}[/tex]

Hence, the equation is: [tex]\mathbf{\frac{1}{90}G= \frac{1}{60}(G- 100000)}[/tex]

(b) Solve the equation in (a), and intepret

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{1}{90}G= \frac{1}{60}(G- 100000)}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]\mathbf{60G = 90G - 9000 000}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{90G - 60G = 9000 000}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{30G = 9000 000}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 30

[tex]\mathbf{G = 3000 00}[/tex]

The gross income must be $300000, for Dave to earn the same amount with either plan.

(c) His earnings based on (c)

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{A = \frac{1}{90}G}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{G = 3000 00}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A = \frac{1}{90} \times 300000}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A = 3333.33}[/tex]

His earning is $3333.33 when the plans are the same

(d) If the gross income in less than (b)

If the gross income is less than $300,000, then plan A would better for Malcom Davis, because his earnings in plan A would be greater than plan B

Graham drove 42 1/3 miles in 1 1/3 hours. What is the unit rate for miles per hour? Use pencil and paper. Describe a situation in which the unit rate would be easier to work with than the given rate.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

42+(1/3)

42*(3/3)+(1/3)

(126/3) + 1/3

126/3 + 1/3 = 127/3 miles

4/3 hours

(127/3)/4/3)

(127/3)*(3/4)

A physicist working in a large laboratory has found that light particles traveling in a particle accelerator increase velocity in a manner that can be described by the linear function -4x+y=15, where x is time and y is velocity ion kilometers per hour. Use this function to determine when a certain particle will reach 30 km/hr.

Answers

Answer:

it will take the certain particle 15/4 (unit of time) to reach 30 km/hr

Input 30 as for y and solve the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is kilometers per hour and the question is asking for how long it takes for a certain particle to reach 30 km/hr, you input 30 for y and solve for x.

-4x + y = 15

-4x + (30) = 15

subtract 30 from both sides

-4x = -15

divide -4 from both sides

x = 15/4

it will take the certain particle 15/4 (unit of time) to reach 30 km/hr

What is function?

A function is a relation between a dependent and independent variable. We can write the examples of functions as -

y = f(x) = ax + b

y = f(x, y, z) = ax + by + cz

Given is a quadratic function f(x) defined as -

f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2

The given quadratic function f(x) is -

f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2

We can write the roots of the equation as -

x = {3 ± √(9 - 8)}/2

x = {3 + √(9 - 8)}/2    and    {3 - √(9 - 8)}/2

x = (3 + 1)/2   and    x = (3 - 1)/2

x = 2   and   x = 1

i’ll mark brainliest!! i will give a lot of points

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 2 points given. Take them seriously. They represent actual numbers that don't need to be rounded.

The two points are (2,-2) and (-3,-6)

Now construct a line in point intercept form from these two points.

y2 = -2y1 = -6x2 = 2x1 = -3

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-2 - - 6)/(2 - - 3)

m = 4/5

So far what you know is

y = 0.8 x + b

Use either one of the two points to get b (the y intercept)

x = 2

y = - 2

-2 = 0.8*2 + b

-2 = 1.6 + b             Subtract 1.6 from both sides

-3.6 = b

y = 0.8x - 3.6

Hooke’s Law for an elastic spring states that the distance a spring stretches varies directly as the force applied. If a force of 180 newtons stretches a spring 5 cm, how much will a force of 270 newtons stretch the same spring?

Answers

Answer:

Simple springs obey Hooke's Law. Hooke's Law states that the force on a spring is proportional to it's displacement from it's resting length:

F = -k*x

Where F is the force, x is how far the string is stretched or compressed, and k is a proportionality constant called the spring constant. The negative sign is because the spring resists stretching.

In this case, we can solve for k using the first case:

(100N) = -k * (5cm)

k = ???

And plug that answer in to find x in the second case:

(360N) = -k * x

    This is a "Hooke's Law" problem: the restoring force required to compress or stretch a spring is proportional to the distance the spring is deformed.  You can figure solve it by setting up a proportion equation and then using the algebraic tool of cross multiplication to solve for the unkown "stretch".

1) set up the proportion equation

100  =  360

5           x

2) cross multiply to get a linear equation

100x = 5*360

3) solve for x

 100x = 1800
