Gross pay = 765
federal withholding tax = 68

Social security tax = 765 * 6.2% = 47.43
Medicare tax = 765 * 1.45% = 11.09
State tax (22% of federal tax) = 68 * 22% = 14.96

765 - 68 - 47.43 - 11.09 - 14.96 = 623.52

<span>Lauren's net pay is 623.52 so the answer is D.</span>

Solve the equation and graph the solution(s), if possible. 9|4p + 2| + 8 = 35

Cerrena [4.2K]

Solving an equation means finding a value of a variable that make the equation true. This value is called the solution of the equation.<span> A mathematical equation is just like a balanced equation. Both sides of the equation should be equal at all times. </span><span>Whatever we do to one side, has to be done on the opposite side.</span>

$9|4p + 2| + 8 = 35$

$
9|4p+2|=35-8
 
$ $Subtract \ 8 \ from \ both \ sides$

$9|4p+2|=27

 
$

$|4p+2|= \dfrac{27}{9}$ $Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 9$

$|4p+2|=3$

$Break \ down \ the \ problem \ into \ these \ 2 \ equations$

$
4p+2=3
 
$

$-(4p+2)=3$

$Solve \ the \ 1st \ equation: \ 4p+2=3$

$4p=3-2$   <span> $Subtract \ 2 \ from \ both \ sides$
</span>
$4p=1$

$p= \dfrac{1}{4}$   <span> $Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 4$
</span>
$Solve \ the \ 2nd \ equation: \ -(4p+2)=3$

$-4p−2=3$    $Simplify \ brackets$

$-4p=3+2$ <span> $Add \ 2 \ to \ both \ sides$
</span>
$-4p=5$

$p= -\dfrac{5}{4}$

$Collect \ all \ solutions$

$p= -\dfrac{5}{4}$ , $p= \dfrac{1}{4}$

Simora [160]

Answer:

$1+r+r^{2}+r^{3}+.....+r^{n-1} = \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the succession:

$1+r+r^{2}+r^{3}+.....+r^{n-1}$

You can multiply and divide by 1-r without chaging the result:

$\frac{1-r}{1-r} (1+r+r^{2}+r^{3}+.....+r^{n-1})$

Distributing the upper part of the fraction you have:

$\frac{1}{1-r} (1-r+r-r^{2}+r^{2}-r^{3}+r^{3}-r^{4}+.....+r^{n-1}-r^{n})$

As can be seen all the intermediate members will be canceled by a same member with opposite sign, only $(1-r^{n})$ will be left so:

$1+r+r^{2}+r^{3}+.....+r^{n-1} = \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}$
