Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The Medicare tax rate is 1.45%
The wages of a person is $1738
The amount which is withheld from the person paycheck is
To solve this, we simply need to break down the words and turn each part into an equation.
"Three times"
This shows that we will be multiplying 3 and something.
3*
"a number"
This shows that the number we will be multiplying 3 by is "n," which represents a number.
3*n or 3n
"plus 16"
This shows we will be adding 16 to the rest of the equation.
3n+16
Using the logic above, we can see that the equation to represent this is 3n+16.
The equation given in the question has to be answered to the nearest tenth. The only thing that one should be careful about is the cross multiplication part. Other than that there is no difficulty in the given problem. Now let us get down to the equation in the question.
15/30 = n/34
30 * n = 15 * 34
30n = 510
n = 510/30
= 51/3
= 17
So the value of the unknown variable "n" comes out to be 17.
A,b,d,e,f,h would be similar because they are all quadrilaterals (they all have four sides) and c,g would be the same because they are both triangles
