Answer:

9 shelters

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 64 from the total number of coats to get the total amount of coats donated to shelters:

388 - 64 = 324

Then, divide 324 by 36, since that's the minimum number of coats given to each shelter:

324 ÷ 36 = 9

So at least 9 shelters received coats.

Juan ramirez sells suits in a major department store on weekends he Ernst a commission of 5 percent on the first ten suits and h
romanna [79]

Answer:

$185

Step-by-step explanation:

The first ten suits sold for 10×$250 = $2,500

commission = 5% of $2,500 = 0.05×$2,500 = $125

The next three suits sold for 3×$250 = $750

commission = 8% of $750 = 0.08×$750 = $60

Total commissions = $125+$60 = $185

There are several errors in the question. If you are using voice recognition, you are better off typing the question manually.

What value of x will make the given triangles congruent?
Molodets [167]
Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other. 

So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this. 
2x+2=5x-19

Then you would just go ahead and simplify

2x+2=5x-19
-2x     -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19    +19
---------------
21=3x
---  ----
3     3

x=7

This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in

2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16

5x-19
5(7)-19= 16

Same with #11.

x+8=3x-14
-x     -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14   +14
--------------
22=2x
---  ----
2     2

x=11

Check. 

x+8
11+8= 19

3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19

Y=-5over4x+7 what is the slope pf a line parallel to this line? What is the slope of a line perpendicular?
quester [9]
You question isn't clear, but I assume that you are asking for the slop of a line parallel to y=-(5/4)(x)+7.
The line parallel would have a slop of -5/7 and the line perpendicular would have a slop of 5/7. 
The difference between the two answers is the sign of the two slopes, one is positive the other is negative
