Answer: x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

5+x+(−2)=−8

Simplify

5 + x - 2 = -8

x + 3 = -8

Subtract 3 to both sides

x + 3 - 3 = -8 +3

Simplify

Dave receives a salary of $200 a week plus a commission of 10% of his weekly sales. An equation y=mx+b represents Dave’s weekly
eduard
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Dave makes $350 

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
In order to find this answer, we must first establish the equation for his earnings.
<u>We use slope intercept form:</u>
 y = mx + b,
where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Since the problem states that his commission percentage is the slope and his base salary is the y-intercept, we can use them in the equation <u>to get the following: </u>
y = 0.1x + 200.

Now knowing that the x is the amount he sells, we can use the $1500 as x to find his total pay for the week:.
y = 0.1(1500) + 200,
y = 150 + 200,
y = 350. </span>

If 40% of the total population of a particular town of 2500 are HIV positive. How many people are HIV negative.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

1500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 40% are HIV positive (that's a lot of people), 60% will be HIV negative. All you have to do is find 60% of 2500.

60% of 2500 = 0.6 * 2500 = 6 * 250 = 1500

Hope this helps!
