subtract base pay ( $80) from total pay

132-80 = 52

divide 52 by 10% for total sales = 52/0.1 = 520

his sales were $520

Answer:

Sales amount is $520 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the sales amount be x .

As given

Thomas earned $80 plus 10% of his sales for a net of $132.

10% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{10}{100}

= 0.10

Thus

Total Earned amount =  Earned amount + 0.10 × Sales amount

Put all the values in the above

132 = 80 + 0.10 × x

132 - 80 = 0.10x

52 = 0.10x

x = \frac{52}{0.10}

x = $520

Therefore the sales amount is $520 .

Antonio is a biologist studying life in a pond. He needs to know how deep the water is. He notices a water lily sticking straigh
quester [9]
For this problem we can represent the situation as a rectangle triangle.
 x: depth of water.
 40: Base. "Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot"
 x + 8: Hypotenuse. "He notices water lily sticking straight up from the water, whose blossom is 8 cm above the water's surface." Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot".
 By the Pythagorean theorem we have:
 x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
 Clearing x:
 x ^ 2 + 1600 = x ^ 2 + 16x + 64
 x ^ 2 - x ^ 2 = 16x + 64 - 1600
 0 = 16x -1536
 1536 = 16x
 1536/16 = x
 x = 96
 answer:
 1) x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
 2) the depth of the water is
 x = 96
