Answer:
u = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for u:
u - 5 = -8
Hint: | Isolate terms with u to the left hand side.
Add 5 to both sides:
u + (5 - 5) = 5 - 8
Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.
5 - 5 = 0:
u = 5 - 8
Hint: | Evaluate 5 - 8.
5 - 8 = -3:
Answer: u = -3
Assume (a,b) has a minimum element m.
m is in the interval so a < m < b.
a < m
Adding a to both sides,
2a < a + m
Adding m to both sides of the first inequality,
a + m < 2m
So
2a < a+m < 2m
a < (a+m)/2 < m < b
Since the average (a+m)/2 is in the range (a,b) and less than m, that contradicts our assumption that m is the minimum. So we conclude there is no minimum since given any purported minimum we can always compute something smaller in the range.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
B: it is only a single equation
You need to find the amount subject to withholding, subtracting from the weekly salary the amount for one withholding allowance for weekly salaries, which is 77.90$:
830 - 77.90 = 752.1 $.
Then, look in the Fed Tax tables (
http://www.opers.ok.gov/Websites/opers/images/pdfs/2016-Fed-Tax-Tables.pdf ) for a married person with a weekly payroll.
You previously found an amount of 752.1 which is greater than 521 but less than 1613$: therefore the income tax to withhold is 35.70$ + 15% of excess over $521.
Therefore, calculate the income tax due: 35.70 + (752.1 - 521) × 15 ÷ 100 = 70.37$
The total amount of income tax that will be withheld is 70.37$
