Answer:

42 and 44

Step-by-step explanation:

The even numbers are numbers which can be written as 2n where n is any integer number.

Therefore, two consecutive numbers would be "2n" and "2n + 2"

We then have that

2n + (2n+2) = 86

4n + 2 = 86

4n = 84

n = 21

And the even number 2n is 2(21) = 42.

(We can verify this answer by doing 42 + 44 = 86)

Assume these are weekly. Matthew worked 8 hours at $9 a hour. Taxes were 16%. How much money was left?
guapka [62]

Number of hours worked: 8

earning per hour = $9

tax = 16%

First, multiply the number of hours by the earnings per hour:

8 x 9 = $72 (total earnings)

Now, find the tax amount by multiplying the total earnings by the tax percentage in decimal form (divided by 100)

72 x (16/100)= 72 x 0.16 = $11.52

Finally, subtract the tax amount to the total earnings:

Money left: 72-11.52 = $ 60.48
