Rodrigo is a salesman who earned a base pay of $38,800 and was paid commission of 14% for each book set he sold. If x represents the number of books sold, and y represents his total pay in dollars, then write an equation that best represents Rodrigo's total pay in dollars?
Total pay = base pay + (commission/100)*number of books Then replace the words with their matching variable
ಠ_ಠ hm.
Use the following function rule to find f(4). \[f(x)=(2)^x+6\] \[f(4)=?\]
Okay. This is simple. All you do is plug in. You see in the first equation where the x is? Well you take the 4 and put it where the x is and then solve. Tell me what you get.

Yew are correct! ^.^ Gewd job babie! <3
Ouuui. ;o
Anymoar?
I aced them all ;o
I might have another math assignment to do that is confusing x'D
Okay. Send then my way.
Seema has $20 in a savings account that earns 10% interest, compounded annually. To the nearest cent, how much will she have in 3 years? Use the formula B = p(1 + r)t, where B is the balance (final amount), p is the principal (starting amount), r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t is the time in years. $=
Okay. So we know what the letter (variables) mean (represent). So all you do it plug in the money amounts. B= what we are finding. r= 10% but we have to change to a decimal so it would be .1 because when changing a percent to a decimal you move the . 2 spaces to the right. 10.00 -> .10. t=3 since 3 years. p= $20/20 because that's how much she has right now. So your overall equation is B=20(1+ 0.1)3. Solve that equation and tell me what you get.

You used PEMDAS right?
No. >.> I just typed it into my calculator
You have to use PEMDAS. Retry it using PEMDAS. Tell me what you get then.
mk Parenthesis is 1.1 so then it would be 20(1.1)3 right?
No. This si your equation.
B=20(1+ 0.1)3
Oh sorry. I didn't understand. Yes. That's the first step.
So when we get to the math do I do 20(1.1) first or (1.1)3 or all together?
Id there is 2 of the same step you do the one that comes first in the equation so you multiply 20*1.1 then 3.
Okay It's the same as when I multiply all together. I got 66

http://prntscr.com/gqcu2y It says you typed it 3 times. FIgured I'd share that with you. Also you are correct! ^.^ <3
