Kristin is promoting an upcoming play. she has two options for how she will be paid. option a is an hourly wage of $7.00. option b is a 5% commission on all money made during the play. she plans to work 2 days for 8 hours each day. how much money will the play need to bring in for both payment options to be equivalent?

Step-by-step explanation:

The option A implies a fixed amount of earning, if she is planning to work 2 days, 8 hours per day, then she will work 16 hours, if they pay $7 per hour. She will earn:

The second option is to just earn by commission, a 5% on all money made.

So, the equivalent point would be model by the following expression:

Where is the total amount of many, now we solve for :

This means that if during the play they make $2240, Kristin would gain the same no matter what option she takes.

However, if they make less than $2240, then the option A is the best decision.

0.5 yards

average change in yardage per play = total yards / number of plays

2.5 yards / 5 = 0.5 yards
