14x + (-1(2x) - 1(-y)) - y
14x + (-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x + y) - y
14x + 1(-2x) + 1(y) - y
14x - 2x + y - y

14x-(2x-y)-y

First you must distribute through the negative in front of the parenthesis means the same as

14x- 1(2x-y)-y

so you must multiply 2x and -y by -1

-1* 2x= -2x

-1* -y= y ( two negatives equal a positive)

Now: 14x-2x+y-y (the y's cancel leaving-)

14x-2x

You're answer is 12x

The computer store pays its employees $150 per day plus a commission of 15% of their sales. Teagan wants to make at least $450 t
Savatey [412]

The equation 0.15 x + 150 ≥ 450 will help Teagan determine how much he has to sell today ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • The computer store pays its employees $150 per day plus a commission of 15% of their sales
  • Teagan wants to make at least $450 today

We need to find which equation will help Teagan to determine how much he has to sell today

Assume that he has to sell by $x today

∵ The store pays $150 per day plus a commission of 15%

   of their sales

∵ Teagan's total sales = x

- Multiply 15% by x, then add the product by 150

∴ Teagan makes = 15% × x + 150

∵ 15% × x = \frac{15}{100} × x = 0.15 x

∴ Teagan makes = 0.15 x + 150

∵ Teagan wants to make at least $450 today

- At least means ≥

∴ Teagan makes ≥ 450

- Substitute Teagan makes by 0.15 x + 150

∴ 0.15 x + 150 ≥ 450

The equation 0.15 x + 150 ≥ 450 will help Teagan determine how much he has to sell today
