Company a has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000. company b has a similar sales position with a slary of $39,000 plus 1% conmission on yearly sales. for what amount of yearly sales is the salary at company a greater than the salary and conmission at company b?

Company A has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000. Company B has a similar sales position with a slary of $39,000 plus 1% conmission on yearly sales.

Let x be the amount of yearly sales

Company A has a sales position with a yearly salary of $42,000.

yearly salary = 42,000

Company B has a similar sales position with a salary of $39,000 plus 1% commission on yearly sales.

1% is 0.01

yearly salary = 39,000+ 0.01x

yearly sales is the salary at company A greater than the salary and conmission at company B

A > B

42000 > 39000+ 0.01x

We solve the inequality

39000+ 0.01x < 42000

Subtract 39000 on both sides

0.01x < 3000

divide by 0.01

x> 300,000

For yearly sales > $300,000, the salary at company A greater than the salary and commission at company B

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
