Answer:

Her social security withholding is $69.14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Miss Blue's gross pay = $903.75

Her social security withholding = 7.65% of her gross pay

                                                   = 7.65% × 903.75

                                                   =\frac{7.65}{100}

                                                   = 0.0765 × 903.75

                                                   = $69.136875 ≈ $69.14

Her social security withholding is $69.14.

I need help pls<br> 11+4b=8b-13<br> b=?
spin [16.1K]
With this, you need side A to equal side B. Your first step is to move the variable to one side. (I've also worked in out, and color coordinated the steps, so you can see better).

11 + 4b = 8b - 13 < let's subtract "4b" from the left side to get rid of it (we're subtracting because it is added on to left side). This will give us:

11 = 8b - 13 < we've subtracted "4b" from the left side, however what you do to one side of the equal sign, you must do to the other, so subtract "4b" from the right side as well. Once done, you should have this"

11 = 4b - 13 < we have "4b-13" because you can only work with like terms. 8b-4b=4b, and the 13 stays untouched.
 
Now let's work on isolating the variable. See how we have a -13 on the side with the variable? We don't want that, so we're going to add 13 to that side, to give us 0 and cancel it out. Remember, what you do to one side, you must do to the other, so add 13 to the 11 on the other side as well. This will give you 24, and your equation should now look like this:

24 = 4b < we're almost done, but the variable is not quite by itself yet. We need to get rid of the "4" in "4b". 4 in being multiplied to "b" so we need to do the opposite operation to cancel it out. We need that 4 to be a 1 because 1x=x. So, divide 4b by 4 to get 1b or just plain b. 

Remember, what you do to one side, you must do to the other, so divide 24 by 4 to get 6, and you're left with your answer.

Answer 6 = b 

Hope this helps!

2. Confirm that 1+V5 and 1 - V5 are the correct roots for x2 – 2x – 4 = 0.
hoa [83]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 2x - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )

x² - 2x = 4

To solve use the method of completing the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 = 4 + 1

(x - 1)² = 5 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 1 = ± \sqrt{5} ( add 1 to both sides )

x = 1 ± \sqrt{5}, thus

x = 1 + \sqrt{5} or x = 1 - \sqrt{5}

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Assuming we have an integer c to represent the components in the stocks.

Thus, the needed probability can be expressed as:

P(X_1+X_2+ ........ X_c \ge 2000)

To break this down, we have:

P(\sum X_i \ge 2000) = P \Bigg(\dfrac{\sum X_i - 100n}{\sqrt{n \ Var (X)}} \ge \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} \Bigg )

P \Bigg(\dfrac{\sum X_i - 100n}{\sqrt{n \ Var (X)}} \ge \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} \Bigg )= P (Z \ge 0.95 ) \ \ \  because  \ Z_{0.05} = -1.65 \\ \\  \\  \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} = -1.65 \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{100\  n-2000  }{\sqrt{900n}} = 1.65  \\ \\ 100 n -1.65 \sqrt{900 n }-2000 = 0

By solving the equation:

n = 23

Thus, relating to the needed condition; n ≥ 23

The needed number of the components that should be in stock should be  at least 23.
