Hey there! :)
Answer:
y = 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set both of the equations equal:
5x - 9 = x² - 3x + 7
Rearrange the equation:
0 = x² - 3x - 5x + 9 + 7
Combine like terms:
0 = x² - 8x + 16
Factor:
0 = (x -4)²
Solve for x:
0 = x - 4
x = 4.
Plug this into an equation to solve for 'y':
y = 5(4) - 9
y = 20 - 9
y = 11.

If I remember correctly, the Medicare tax is taken on Gross Income. The question has already limited the base amount for Social Security.
<em><u>Social Security:</u></em> 118,500 * 6.2/100 = 7347

Answer:
x=5 and x=-11
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-2)(x+8)=39

Subtract 39 from both sides

Factor:
(x-5)(x+11)=0
Set factors to 0.
x-5 =0
x+11 =0
x=5, x=-11
