If you multiply $90,000 by the income tax percentage which is 20% which this would give you $18,000. So after you multiply these two you would then subtract $18,000-16,800 which would equal $1,200.

Thomas deposited $800 into two different accounts.

Mazyrski [523]

I’d go with D, you do 350 and multiply it by 0.0425 and do the same with 450 and multiply by 0.0425 and you multiply each of those answers and then add them to 800

Y=-1/3x^2-4x-5 in vertex form

grigory [225]

Answer:

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}(x+6)^2+7$ [Vertex form]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2-4x-5$

We need to find the vertex form which is.,

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

where $(h,k)$ represents the co-ordinates of vertex.

We apply completing square method to do so.

We have

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2-4x-5$

First of all we make sure that the leading co-efficient is =1.

In order to make the leading co-efficient is =1, we multiply each term with -3.

$-3\times Y=-3\times\frac{1}{3}x^2-(-3)\times4x-(-3)\times 5$

$-3Y=x^2+12x+15$

Isolating $x^2$ and $x$ terms on one side.

Subtracting both sides by 15.

$-3Y-15=x^2+12x-15-15$

$-3Y-15=x^2+12x$

In order to make the right side a perfect square trinomial, we will take half of the co-efficient of $x$ term, square it and add it both sides side.

square of half of the co-efficient of $x$ term = $(\frac{1}{2}\times 12)^2=(6)^2=36$

Adding 36 to both sides.

$-3Y-15+36=x^2+12x+36$

$-3Y+21=x^2+12x+36$

Since $x^2+12x+36$ is a perfect square of $(x+6)$ , so, we can write as:

$-3Y+21=(x+6)^2$

Subtracting 21 to both sides:

$-3Y+21-21=(x+6)^2-21$

$-3Y=(x+6)^2-21$

Dividing both sides by -3.

$\frac{-3Y}{-3}=\frac{(x+6)^2}{-3}-\frac{21}{-3}$

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}(x+6)^2+7$ [Vertex form]

Please help with this question asap

Pythagoras theorem: leg 1 squared + leg 2 squared = hypotenuse squared

In the diagram, the triangle has angles 90 and 45. So the other angle in the triangle must be 45 degrees as well. (180 - 90 -45 = 45)

This means it is an isosceles triangle (since two angles are the same), so the two legs have the same length.

So we can say that length of leg1 = x, and the length of leg2 also equals x

Now let's use pythagoras' theorem:

leg1 = x

leg2 = x

hypotenuse = 16

x^2 + x^2 = 16^2

2x^2 = 16^2

2x^2 = 256

x^2 = 128

x = √(128)

x = 8√2
