Gross pay = $2,759.00
Total deductions = 7.65%+12%+7% = 26.65% = 0.2665
By thumb rule, rent and other fixed expenses ≤ 28% of Monthly gross salary
Therefore,
Allowed housing and fixed expenses = 0.28*2,759 = $772.52

Step-by-step explanation:
(Assuming that this triangle is isosceles)
If this triangle is isosceles, then x° is going to be equal to its twin angle; 40°.
We can solve for z now.
180 = 40 + 40 + z
180 = 80 + z
Subtract 80 from both sides.
100 = z
z = 100°
Now that we know z = 100 degrees, we can begin to solve the expression (3x -20)
The expression sits on a 180° line and the angle z (100°) shares the line with the expression (3x - 20)°
180 = 100 + (3x - 20)
Subtract 100 from both sides.
80 = 3x - 20
Add 20 to both sides to isolate 3x
100 = 3x
Divide by 3 on both sides.
100/3 = 3x/3
33.33... = x
600 words
90 words divided 15% is 6 words for 1% so 6 times 100 is 600

Answer: The value of k for which one root of the quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0 is six times the other is k = 3.
Let's look into the solution step by step.
Explanation:
Given: A quadratic equation, kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0
Let the two zeros of the equation be α and β.
According to the given question, if one of the roots is α the other root will be 6α.
Thus, β = 6α
Hence, the two zeros are α and 6α.
We know that for a given quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
The sum of the zeros is expressed as,
α + β = - b / a
The product of the zeros is expressed as,
αβ = c / a
For the given quadratic equation kx2 - 14x + 8 = 0,
a = k, b = -14, c = 8
The sum of the zeros is:
α + 6α = 14 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 7α = 14 / k
⇒ α = 2 / k --------------- (1)
The product of the zeros is:
⇒ α × 6α = 8 / k [Since the two zeros are α and 6α]
⇒ 6α 2 = 8 / k
⇒ 6 (2 / k)2 = 8 / k [From (1)]
⇒ 6 × (4 / k) = 8
⇒ k = 24 / 8
⇒ k = 3
