Answer:

He must sell $14000 of merchandise

Step-by-step explanation:

The salesperson earns a base salary of $800

This means that he must make

$3600 - $800 = $2800 worth of commisions

Let x, be the value of the mechandise that he needs to sell.

This means that

x*0.20 = $2800

x  = $2800/0.20

x = $14000

He must sell $14000 of merchandise

Evaluate the expression for x = 2. -9x2 + 11x − 7 =
harina [27]

All you have to do is replace every x with 2 and then solve:

<em>Make to sure to follow the Order of Operations!!</em>

-9x(2) + 11x - 7 =

(-9 × 2 × 2) + (11 × 2) - 7 =

-36 + 22 - 7 =

-14 - 7 =

-21

The answer is -21.

Hope that helps!

Hi there!

\large\boxed{2, -9}

We can create an equation for the line PR using the given coordinates. Use the following formula for the slope:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Plug in the coordinates for P and R:

m = \frac{-5-(-1)}{-1-(-4)} = -\frac{4}{3}

Find the equation by using point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in a coordinate and the slope:

y - (-5) = -4/3(x - ( - 1))

Simplify:

y + 5 = -4/3(x + 1)

To find the y-coordinate if x = 2, plug in the x value:

y + 5 = -4/3(2 + 1)

y + 5 = -4/3(3)

y + 5 = -4

y = -9

Thus, the coordinate is (2, -9)

Triangle XYZ is reflected across the x-axis, and X = (–11, 8). What are the coordinates of X’ ?
valina [46]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (-11, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across the x-axis changes the sign of the y-coordinate.

For X(-11, 8), the reflected point is X'(-11, -8).    (matches the last choice)

What is the measure of the missing angle?​
goblinko [34]

Answer:

<u>The missing angle measures also 110°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that If the transversal cuts across parallel lines (apparently, this particular case) then those alternate exterior angles have the same measure (.∠ 110° and ∠?) So in the figure given, the two alternate exterior angles measure the same.

<u>The missing angle measures also 110°</u>
