Alonzo earns 8% commission on vacuum cleaner sales. This past month, Alonzo sold 70 units at $150.00 each. How much did Alonzo make in commissions for the past month? Explain how you found your answer.

$840

Step-by-step explanation:

if alonzo has sold 70 units at 150.00 each, you would multiply the 2 values which would equal- $10,500.

that's the total, but to find the commission you would have to multiply the decimal(percent) by the total, which would give you $840.

(70)(150.00) = 10500- total vaccum cleaner sales

8% -> .08, because you will move the decimal 2 places to the left.

(10500)(.08) =840- Alonso's percentage of sales

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
