-2(x - 5) = -14 PLEASEEEEE HELPPPPPP

Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?

One week Michael worked 40 hours and sold 2,870 worth of shoes if his employer paid him 12.50 per hour and 6% commission of all
liq [111]

Answer:

Money which Michael make in commission = 158.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

number of hours Michael worked in a week = 40 hours

total sale of the week = 2870

commission which Micheal will get on sale = 6% above 225sale

To find,

total money Michael make in commission in the week

Commission = (2870 - 225)*6%

Commission = (2870 - 225)*6/100

Commission = 2645 *6/100

Commission = 158.7

Total money Micheal make in a week = (40*12.50) + (158.7)

                                                                 = 658.7

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

  800 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the amount of solution B added to 2400 mL of solution A. The total amount of alcohol (mL) in the mixture is ...

  10%×2400 + 50%×b = 20%×(2400 +b)

multiplying by 100 to get rid of the % signs and simplifying, we have ...

  24000 +50b = 48000 +20b

  30b = 24000 . . . . . . . . . subtract 24000+20b

  b = 800 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 30

Debra added 800 mL of 50% alcohol to her 2400 mL of 10% alcohol to make a 20% solution.
