Answer:

His sales that week were $2,160.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to subtract $324 from the amount he earned that week, to find the 5% he got from sales:

$432-$324=$108

Now, you know that he received $108 that represent 5% of his sales and you can use a rule of three to find the amount that represents 100% which would be his sales that week:

 5%   →    108

100% →      x

x=(100*108)/5=2160

According to this, the answer is that his sales that week were $2,160.

What is the equation in point slope form of a line that passes through the points (-8,2) and had a slope of 1/2
AysviL [449]
First you have to plug in your information into the formula- y=mx+b
So we know the y is 2, the slope (m) is 1/2, the x is 2 and we don't know the b. Do plug it in the formula and solve... you should get 2=1/2(2)+b you will end up with 1=b and the final answer is y=1/2x+1
