$1,400+(3.5% times x)=$2,800

Answer:  Our required equation would be \$1400+(3.5\%\times x)=\$2800

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of salary a salesman has = $1400

Rate of commission he received = 3.5%

On last month, the total salary = $2800

Let the amount of his total sales  would be 'x'.

So, our required equation would be :

\$1400+(3.5\%\times x)=\$2800

So, if we solved the above equation , we get our required answer i.e. the amount of his total sales :

1400+\dfrac{3.5}{100}\times x=2800\\\\0.035x=2800-1400\\\\0.035x=1400\\\\x=\dfrac{1400}{0.035}\\\\x=\$40000

Hence, the amount of his total sales is $40000.

Therefore, our required equation would be \$1400+(3.5\%\times x)=\$2800

Which of the following shows the equation after both sides have been distributed correctly -4(x-2)=5(3x-8)?
salantis [7]
The answer is the second option, -4x-8=15x-40

When you distribute the first thing you do is kcf, which means keep change flip. Then you distribute.

Work out the area of this semi circle
kirill [66]

Answer:

39.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a semi-circle is pi times the radius squared divided by 2. So basically standard area of a circle formula (pi times the radius squared) but then you add in the extra step of dividing it by 2.

The formula looks like this:

π × r² ÷ 2

The radius is half the diameter of the circle. So basically think of it as a line to the middle of the circle. Our diameter is 10, (the diameter is the entire length of the circle. It gives us this already. If you need diameter and only have the radius add the radius together twice or multiply it by 2 to get the diameter. Fun fact..?)

and it tells us to substitute pi for 3.142.

So, plugging our numbers in we get:

3.142 x 5^2 ÷ 2 = 39.275.

Cut out the 3rd decimal place (5) as it tells us to only include the first 2 decimal places, and we finally end up with 39.27.

<u>Hope this helps and have a nice day!</u>

Help, I need answer ASAP
Kryger [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

HL states that a hypotenuse and leg of a right triangle must be congruent, so you would need to know the hypotenuses are congruent and a leg is congruent. For 6, You're only given 2 sides instead of 3, and since this is a Side-Side-Side Postulate, you must have the third sides be congruent. For 7, Angle-Side-Angle requires to known congruent angles and a side <em>in between </em>them, so you would need to know that angle I is congruent to angle L. Lastly, Side-Angle-Side needs two sides and an angle between them, so you would need to know that side JI is congruent to HD. HI is already congruent to itself by the Reflexive Property, so you only need to know JI ≅ HD.

A multiple-choice test has 30 questions and each one has five possible answers, of which only one is correct. If all answers wer
kumpel [21]

Answer: the probability is 0.13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, each question has 5 options and only one is correct.

Then, selecting at random, the probability of getting a correct answer is equal to:

p = 1/5 = 0.20 (and the probability of getting it incorrect is p = 4/5 = 0.80)

Now, if out of 30 questions, we got 4 correct and 26 incorrect, the probability for a given combination is;

p = (0.20^4)*(0.80^26)

But we also need to multiply this by the total number of combinations.

This is we have 30 questions in total, and we can select 4 of them that will be the correct ones.

Now, if we have N objects in total, the number of different combinations of K elements out of those N elements is

C = \frac{N!}{(N-K)!*K!}

In this case, N = 30 and K = 4.

C = \frac{30!}{(30 -4)!*4!} = \frac{30*29*28*27}{4*3*2}  = 27,405

Then the probability of getting exactly 4 correct answers is:

P = (0.20^4)*(0.80^26)*27,405 = 0.13
