Micha works at a sporting goods store. He is paid $9.75 per hour plus double time on holidays and makes an average of 8% commission on all golfing equipment sales. This is modeled by the expression 9.75(x) + 9.75(2)(y) + 0.08(z). What is Micha's gross pay if he worked 15 regular hours and 4 holiday hours and had $364.00 in golf equipment sales.

$253.37

Step-by-step explanation:

x = regular hours (15)

y = holidy hours (4)

z = equipment sales (364)

Plugging in these numbers, our equation will look like this

9.75(15) + 9.75(2)(4) + 0.08(364)

The answer is 253.37

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
