Answer:
168
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by finding the whole prism's volume. 9 x 3 x 8 = 216 Then find the volume of the missing part. 8 x 6 x 1 = 48. Subtract the missing volume from the whole volume. 216 - 48 = 168
You can factor this out by thinking of the factors of 56 that have a sum of -1. 7 and 8 are factors of 56 and to get a sum of -1, 8 should be negative. 7 + -8 = -1
So
factored out is (y+7x)(y-8x)
We can check this using FOIL
F = (y)(y) =
O = (y)(-8x) = -8xy
I = (7x)(y) = 7xy
L = (7x)(-8x) =

Multiply the commission rate 8% by total merch sold
Change % to a decimal when you multiply so...
.08*4213 = <span>337.04
^ commission rate
To find the total earnings for the week, add 285 to the commission rate
285 + 337.04 = </span><span>622.04</span>
