Chuck has a gross pay of $815.70. His gross pay will be reduced by:

  • Federal tax of $56;
  • Social Security tax that is 6.2% of his gross pay;
  • Medicare tax that is 1.45% of his gross pay;
  • State tax that is 19% of his federal tax.

Let's count:

1. gross pay of $815.70 - 100%,

Social Security tax of $x - 6.2%.

Then

\dfrac{815.70}{x}=\dfrac{100}{6.2} ,\\ \\815.70\cdot 6.2=x\cdot 100,\\ \\x=\dfrac{815.70\cdot 6.2}{100} =50.5734.

2. gross pay of $815.70 - 100%,

Medicare tax of $y - 1.45%.

Then

\dfrac{815.70}{y}=\dfrac{100}{1.45} ,\\ \\815.70\cdot 1.45=y\cdot 100,\\ \\y=\dfrac{815.70\cdot 1.45}{100} =11.82765.

3. Federal tax of $56 - 100%,

State tax $z - 19%.

Then

\dfrac{56}{z}=\dfrac{100}{19} ,\\ \\56\cdot 19=z\cdot 100,\\ \\z=\dfrac{56\cdot 19}{100} =10.64.

4. Chuck’s gross pay will be reduced by

\$56+\$50.5734+\$11.82765+\$10.64=\$129.04105\approx \$129.04.

Plot the axis of symmetry and the vertex for this function: h(x) = (x − 5)2 − 7.
jeka94

Answer:

The vertex and the axis of symmetry in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola written in vertex form is equal to

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k

where

a is the leading coefficient

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

and the equation of the axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex

x=h

In this problem

we have

h(x)=(x-5)^2-7

This is a vertical parabola written in vertex form open upward

The vertex is a minimum

where

the vertex is the point (5,-7)

the x-coordinate of the vertex is 5

so

the equation of the axis of symmetry is equal to

x=5

PLEASE HELP ! Find the zeros of the given function.
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

-1, 4+i, 4-i

Step-by-step explanation:

x^4- 6x^3 + 2x^2 + 26x + 17

Using the rational root theorem

we see if 1, -1, -17 or 17 are roots

Check and see if 1 is a root

1^4- 6(1^3) + 2(1^2) + 26(1) + 17=0

1-6+2+26+17 does not equal 0  1 is not a root

-1

1^4- 6(-1^3) + 2(1^2) + 26(-1) + 17=0

1 +6 +2 -26+17 = 0

-1 is a root

Factor out (x+1)

(x+1) ( x^3-7x^2+9x+17)

Using the rational root theorem again on x^3-7x^2+9x+17

Checking -1

-1 -7 -9 +17=0

-1 is a root

(x+1) (x+1) (x^2-8x+17)

Using the quadratic on the last

8 ±sqrt(8^2 - 4(1)17)

--------------------------------

    2

gives imaginary roots

Identify a possible first step using the elimination method to solve the system and then find the solution to the system.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:x = 1

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of simultaneous equations is expressed as

3x - 5y = - 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

2x + y = 3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

The first step is to decide on which variable to eliminate. Let us eliminate x. Then we would multiply both rows by numbers which would make the coefficients of x to be equal in both rows.

Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

6x - 10y = - 4

6x + 3y = 9

Subtracting, it becomes

- 13y = - 13

y = - 13/- 13 = 1

The next step is to substitute y = 1 into any of the equations to determine x.

Substituting y = 1 into equation 2, it becomes

2x + 1 = 3

2x = 3 - 1 = 2

x = 2/2 = 1
