Allison is saving money to buy a new phone that costs $600 by selling her graphic designs. She is using an app to manage her sales, but it keeps a fraction of each sale. Her net pay is modeled by the function P(x) = x2 + 18x – 160, where x represents the number of sales. How many sales does Allison to make to earn $600? 9 sales
20 sales
38 sales
841 sales

841 sales

good morning my friend

20 sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = x² + 18x – 160

Here p(x) represents the net pay.

Given that p(x), net pay is $600

x² + 18x – 160 = 600

x² + 18x – 160 - 600 = 0

x² + 18x – 760 = 0

x² +38x - 20x - 760 = 0

x(x+38) - 20(x+38) = 0

(x-20)(x+38) = 0

x = -38, 20

x = 20

Therefore, she makes 20 sales in order to make $600.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
