The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
b. 22%
Explanation:
To find the percentage withheld, we divide the amount withheld by the gross pay. This means we divide
83.2 ÷ 378.18 = 0.2200010577 ≈ 0.22 = 22%
Answer:
Let x be the amount of money
and n be the number of tickets:
Answer:
The answer is supposed to be (2,-3), but for some reason I don't see it as one of the choices.
(Please don't get mad or report this answer, the work is below, so you may see for yourself.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since y equals both -6x + 9 and -3x + 3, we will simply write them into one equation:
-6x + 9 = -3x + 3
Next we will solve for x by isolating it:
So, first subtract 3 on both sides to get -6x + 6 = -3x. Next add 6x on both sides to get 6 = 3x. Then finally divide by 3 on both sides to get 2 = x or you can flip it to be x = 2.
Now that we know what x is, we can plug it back into one of the original equations. In this case we'll plug it into y = -3x + 3:
y = -3(2) + 3
-3 × 2 = -6 and -6 + 3 = -3
So: y = -3
Now we can plug each into an ordered pair (x,y), and your answer is (2,-3).
As always, don't forget to check your work (It's correct btw, I already checked) and I hope this helps you :)
