Answer 7

An advertising agency provides services to a pizza shop for a fixed rate of $2,500 per month plus a commission of 42% of the pizza's take-out sales. For this account to be profitable, the agency needs to bring in at least $8,800 a month from the pizza shop.

A. Write an inequality to represent what the pizza shop take-out sales must be for the advertising agency to be profitable. (2 points)

B. Solve the inequality from Part A. Show your work. (2 points)

Answer 8

2,500(.42)<8,800

Answer 9

@Rocky_

Answer 10

Thanks, can you show your work @Brostep0s

Answer 11

Wait./. I was wrong, it's 2,500(.42)+x>8,800 because everything on the right side of the equation must be greater than that on the left side for the involvement of the agency to be profitable. Thus, given that 2,500 is what they pay to be involved, plus a commision of .42, you add what's left.

Answer 12

Oh ok @Brostep0s but whats B?

Answer 13

\[2,500(.42)+x \ge 8.800\]
Here is your starting equation. First you must multiply. Tell me what you get.

Answer 14

Multply what?

Answer 15

:/

Answer 16

I'm confused

Answer 17

2,500(.42)

Answer 18

2,500x.42?

Answer 19

Yush!

Answer 20

1050

Answer 21

correct! after this, you must isolate the x. To do this, you move like terms to a single side. Subtract 1,050 against 8,800.

Answer 22

-7750

Answer 23

no. It would be positive. \[x \ge 7,750\] this is what you would come out to.

Answer 24

I used a calculator

Answer 25

So the answer to B is 7,750
