Answer:
Let us assume that the pay rate per hour = x
no. of hours worked = n
Gross earnings = x*n
Federal taxes = 18% of gross earnings
= 0.18(x*n)
State taxes = 4% of gross earnings
= 0.04(x*n)
Social security deduction = 7.05% of gross earnings
= 0.0705(x*n)
Total deductions = Federal taxes + State taxes +SSD
= 0.18(x*n) + 0.04(x*n) + 0.0705(x*n)
= 0.2905(x*n)
Net pay = Gross earnings - Total Deduction
Net pay = x*n - 0.2905(x*n)
Net pay = 0.7095(x*n)
You answer is 3 and here's why...
7x + 5 - 3x - 7 = 10
First you must collect like terms
And that gives us
4x - 2 = 10
Next you must simplify by removing additives
4x - 2 + 2 = 10 + 2
4x = 12
Now you must divide
4x/4 = 12/4
x = 3
If you would like to find the quotient of 2 1/4 and 5/8, you can calculate this using the following steps:
2 1/4 = 9/4
2 1/4 / 5/8 = 9/4 / 5/8 = 9/4 * 8/5 = 18/5 = 3 3/5
The correct result would be 3 3/5.
(2y² + 7y + 11) - (8y² - 5y + 7) you can distribute the negative sign to the second expression and then combine the like terms
new expression: (2y² + 7y + 11) (-8y² + 5y - 7)
2y² and -8y² equals -6y²
7y and 5y equals 12y
11 and -7 equals 4
The answer is -6y² + 12y + 4
0.4 is exactly 0.01 less than 0.41 .
