A small business is considering hiring a new sales representative (sales rep) to market its product in a nearby city. Three pay scales are under consideration, ranging from most aggressive to least aggressive.Pay Scale 1: Pay the sales rep a base yearly salary of $13,600 plus a commission of 5% of total yearly sales.Pay Scale 2: Pay the sales rep a base yearly salary of $18,000 plus a commission of 4% of total yearly sales.Pay Scale 3: Pay the sales rep a base yearly salary of $22,000 plus a commission of 2% of total yearly sales.For each of the pay scales, use a formula to express the total yearly earnings E(s) for the sales rep as a function of total yearly sales s. (Give percent in decimal form.
Pay Scale 1: E1(s) =
Pay Scale 2: E2(s) =
Pay Scale 3:
E3(s) =What amount of total yearly sales would result in the same total yearly earnings for the sales rep regardless of whether they pick E2(s) or E3(s). (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Jason receives an inheritance of $50,000. His financial advisor suggests that he invest
this in three mutual funds: a money-market fund, a blue-chip stock fund, and a high-
tech stock fund. The advisor estimates that the money-market fund will return 5%
over the next year, the blue-chip fund 9%, and the high-tech fund 16%. Jason wants a
total first-year return of $4000. To avoid excessive risk, he decides to invest three
times as much in the money-market fund as in the high-tech stock fund. How much
should he invest in each fund?
