If THE GOAL is to get 2,100 nails hammered into a wall, but you are restricted and able to hammer only 15 nails per week... How many weeks will it take to achieve the goal?

Please answer the question, and describe the process used to find the answer. THANKS.

OK. I'll admit it. I'm not really interested in hammering nails, anymore. As a Drywaller it took me less than a day to pound 2,100 nails into the walls.



The REAL GOAL is to find 2,100 people who like beef jerky, and enroll them into Jerky Direct's "monthly" Autoship program. The question was asked in an attempt to find an easy way to illustrate the income potential to people who are thinking about working as Distributors.



2,100 Autoship Customers equals 2,100 sales per month.

(Each sale produces $2.00 commission for the Distributor that enrolled the Customer.)



2,100 sales per month

x $2.00 commission per sale

= $4,200 Residual Income per month



How long will it take to reach that level of income?



140 weeks... assuming 15 Autoship Customers are acquired each week for 140 consecutive weeks, and no one cancels their order.

Dude,

Your goal is to nail 2100, but you do not specify what the time frame you require to meat (jerky pun) or exceed your goal. Based upon the information:

2100/15 = 140 weeks

long rant to declare you prefer to not memorize the fundamental rules of differential equations and show which you think of excellent judgment is something than the form of be taught of a topic - and algebra is one way expressing that good judgment. An algebraic equation IS the best judgment of one or extra issues - as quickly as solved the countless genuine existence values plugged in supply the respond - even though if it fairly is decreased from grams, truck a lot or ft out on a beam. it would desire to be which you will artwork superb as a coder and programmer filling out redefined suggestions quite than an engineer engaged on the definitions. I have been given out of engineering while i found out that I enjoyed technologies yet fairly disliked the scut artwork of engineering - statics, dynamics, statistics, deviation and version, making approximations and then proving they're valid sufficient to maintain from killing people.

the least number of weeks you need to get the goal is 2100 / 15 = 140
