<h3>Answer:</h3>

y = 0.1x +1500

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

You need an equation that will give Gary a salary of $1500 even if he makes no sales (x=0). The only possible choice for the second item is then ...

... +1500

You are expected to know that Gary's commission of 10% of sales is computed by multiplying sales (x) by 10%. That is, if Gary sells $100 worth of items, his commission is ...

... 10% × $100 = $10

That is, the multiplier is 0.1.

Gary's salary (y) is then computed as

... y = 0.1x +1500

Comment on percentages

The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100. That is, 10% = 10/100, ten hundredths, or 0.10. (You might notice here that "percent" and "hundredths" can be used interchangeably.)

Estimate the line of best fit using two points on the line.

mash [69]

Answer:

B. y = -2/3x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the slope when given two points on a line:

y2 - y1

x2 - x1

Substitute the two given points (6, 8) (9, 6):

6 - 8

9 - 6

Slope = -2/3x

We found the slope! And the answer choices already gave us one y-intercept, which is 12. The last thing we do is we form an equation with the information we solved and that was given to us.

y = slope (x) + y-intercept

y = -2/3x + 12

The answer choice that matches this equation is B.

In conclusion, the equation that best estimates the line of best fit shown above is answer choice B.

When salt and water are combined, they form a salt or saline solution. How much ml of water must be added to 150 mL of an 80% sa

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

We must add 400 ml of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the following equation:

$C_{i}V_{i}=C_{f}V_{f}$

Where:

C(i) is the initial concentration of the solution (80%)
C(f) is the final concentration of the solution (30%)
V(i) is the initial volume (150 ml)
V(f) is the final volume

Now, we just need to solve the equation for V(f).

$V_{f}=\frac{C_{i}V_{i}}{C_{f}}$

$V_{f}=\frac{80*150}{30}$

$V_{f}=400\: ml$

Therefore, we must add 400 ml of water.

I hope it helps you!

Helpppppp pleaseeeeeee

NeX [460]

Answer: b)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can rule out A) and C), because you have to find area (no adding.)

To do this problem, you can individually multiply the estimated hieght and

width by 3 and then multiply together.

This is because there are 3 walls that each are 9 3/4 tall and 14 1/4 wide. To find total height and width, multiply by 3. Then find total area (lxw)

9 3/4 rounds to 10

14 1/4 rounds to 14

= 3 (10) x 3 (14)

D) is incorrect because you have to multiply each number by 3. (Or you can multiply by 6)

It is B)
