Answer:

$750

Explanation:

Given the following:

i. first job pays $880 per week

ii. second job pays $790 per week

amount first job is paying more= ($880 - $790) = $90

Hence,12% should equate $90 if Thomas wants to make the second job pay him as much as the first job

Therefore, 12% of X = $90

12÷100 * X = $90

X = 90 * 100 ÷ 12

X= 9000 ÷ 12

X = $750

Hence, Thomas has to make a sale of $750 to earn a 12% comission of $90

Are there compelling reasons to believe certain values of democracy are threatened by what is happening in our politics today?
Nimfa-mama [501]

If we consider the speech of Barack Obama, when he leaves the presidency of the United States of America, we will believe that there is reason to believe that democracy is threatened.

According to Obama, there are currently 3 threats to democracy, the first of which are forces such as terrorism, increased inequality and demographic changes that threaten the country's security, solidarity and prosperity, but these same forces also threaten democracy . if opportunities are not created for all people in the country, division and dissatisfaction will only become clearer in the coming years, threatening democracy.

Obama also highlighted a second threat, which is the racial issue.  "So if we're going to be serious about the racial issue, then we need to maintain anti-discrimination laws - in hiring, housing, education, and the criminal justice system."  Said the former president who pointed out  that only laws will not suffice to resolve the racial issue. "Hearts must change. It will not be a change overnight." Social attitudes sometimes take generations to change".

Obama also mentioned a third threat to democracy, which is when a group of similar people joins a bubble, be it a community, a church, a social network or a college, and that group brings together similar people with the same political vision. One person never questions the other's hypotheses.
