Hey there!!

How do we find slopes ?

Slope = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

We are given with two co-ordinates :

(-1,8) and (3,-4)

Hence, the slope is :

$\frac{-4-8}{3+1}$

... $\frac{-12}{4}$ = -3

The slope is -3.

Hope my answer helps!

Answer:

The volume is 356 $in^3$ , which agrees with the second answer option listed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the volume of a pyramid is the product of the area of its base(B) times the pyramid's height (h), divided by three:

$V=B*\frac{h}{3}$

For our case, the area of the base "B" is the area of a square of side = 8 inches. That is the area B is:

$B=(8 \,in)^2=64\,in^2$

Now we can include this value and the value of the pyramid's height (h=12 in) in the formula for the volume to give the answer:

$V=B*\frac{h}{3}=64\,in^2\,\frac{12\,in}{3} =256\,in^3$

Jill gets a base pay of $1500 per month. She also earns a commission of 8% of her total sales. What are Jill's earnings for a mo

mart [117]

Answer:

$4060.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jill gets a base pay of $1500 per month. She also earns a commission of 8% of her total sales. We are asked to find Jill's earnings for a month in which she has sales of $32,000.

Jill's earnings for the month would be base salary pus 8% of $32,000.

$\text{Jill's total earnings for the month}=\$1500+\$32,000\times \frac{8}{100}$

$\text{Jill's total earnings for the month}=\$1500+\$320\times8$

$\text{Jill's total earnings for the month}=\$1500+\$2560$

$\text{Jill's total earnings for the month}=\$4060$

Therefore, the Jill's earnings for the given month would be $4060.
