Answer: The car has to sell for $20000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price that the car would have to sell for in order for these two job opportunities to pay Jim the same amount.
Ace Cars says they will pay Jim a 10% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be
10/100 × x = 0.1x
Budget Cars says they will pay him $500 per week plus a 7.5% commission on the sale price of each car. It means that his pay would be
500 + 0.075x
For boths pays to be the same, it means that
0.1x = 500 + 0.075x
0.1x - 0.075x = 500
0.025x = 500
x = 500/0.025
x = 20000
The car has to sell for $20000
Y=-2x-5
You can divide by -2 on both sides of the equal sign getting the answer above.

Hello!
It is given information that this triangle is a right triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem can apply here.
We can set the length of a leg as an unknown variable 
.
Remember that it is the whole 
term being squared, meaning that it'll simplify to 
, not 
.
This means we can plug back in to find the sides.
The hypotenuse would be 
, or 4.2.
And the legs would be 1.4 and 4, respectively.
Hope this helps!
