14) Bill is looking to work at two different car dealerships. The Subaru dealership is going to offer him a monthly pay of $1200 plus 4.5% of his total sales. His monthly sales can
be represented by x. The BMW dealership will give him a flat pay of $1600 monthly.
Use an inequality to show when it would be better for him to choose to work at Subaru
then BMW. Solve your inequality and determine the amount of sales he needs to make
in order for it to be a better choice to work at Subaru.

1) $1,200 + x × 4.5/100 > $1,600

2) Bill has to make more than $8,888., in total sales monthly for it to be a better choice to work at Subaru

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

The amount of monthly pay the Subaru dealership is offering = $1,200

The percentage of his total sales, x, Subaru dealership is offering = 4.5%

The flat monthly pay the BMW dealership is offering = $1,600

Therefore, the inequality to show when it would be better for him to choose to work for Subaru is given as follows;

$1,200 + x × 4.5/100 > $1,600

2) The solution of the above inequality is given as follows;

$1,200 + x × 4.5/100 > $1,600

x × 4.5/100 > $1,600 - $1,200

x × 4.5/100 > $400

x > $400 × 100/4.5  = $8,888.

Therefore, in order to make it better to work at Subaru, Bill has to sell more than $8,888. worth of cars every month.

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.

126 maybe. sorry
