Answer:
w = (p - 21)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation so that it is equal to w.
p = 21 + 2w
p - 21 = (21 + 2w) - 21
p - 21 = 2w
(p - 21)/2 = (2w)/2
(p - 21)/2 = w
w = (p - 21)/2
so to find 15% of 54,237, we use this equation: (x/54237) = (15/100) where x is the amount of income tax.
cross multiply: 100x = 813555
divide each side by 100 to isolate x: 8135.55
the truck driver will pay $8135.55
