Answer:

Let us assume that the pay rate per hour = x

no. of hours worked = n

Gross earnings = x*n

Federal taxes = 18% of gross earnings

= 0.18(x*n)

State taxes = 4% of gross earnings

= 0.04(x*n)

Social security deduction = 7.05% of gross earnings

= 0.0705(x*n)

Total deductions = Federal taxes + State taxes +SSD

= 0.18(x*n) + 0.04(x*n) + 0.0705(x*n)

= 0.2905(x*n)

Net pay = Gross earnings - Total Deduction

Net pay = x*n - 0.2905(x*n)

Net pay = 0.7095(x*n)

how many 1/3 inch cubes does it take to fill a box with width 2 2/3 inches length 3 1/3 inches and height 2 1/3 inches
Alona [7]

Answer:

560/9 or around 63 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/3 -> 8/3

3 1/3 -> 10/3

2 1/3-> 7/3

7/3 x 8/3= 56/9

56/9 x 10/3 = 560/27

560/27 divided by 1/3

= 560/9

He determines that 6 is an extraneous solution because the difference of the numerators is 6, so the 6s cancel to 0. which best
seropon [69]

The question is incomplete. Completed question is given below the answer.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

Given  

Then the solution follows thus:

Step 1: 8(x – 4) = 2(x + 2)

Step 2: 4(x – 4) = (x + 2)

Step 3: 4x – 16 = x + 2

Step 4: 3x = 18

Step 5: x = 6

It can be seen that his solution is correct. But 6 is not an extraneous solution.

An extraneous solution is a solution to an equation that emerges from the process of solving the problem but is not a valid solution to the original problem.

When 6 is substituted into the original equation, the original equation holds.

Therefore, his solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

#SPJ4

Completed question:-

A student solves the following equation for all possible values of x:His solution is as follows:

Step 1: 8(x – 4) = 2(x + 2)

Step 2: 4(x – 4) = (x + 2)

Step 3: 4x – 16 = x + 2

Step 4: 3x = 18

Step 5: x = 6

He determines that 6 is an extraneous solution because the difference of the numerators is 6, so the 6s cancel to 0.

Which best describes the reasonableness of the student’s solution?

His solution for x is correct and his explanation of the extraneous solution is reasonable.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, both denominators have to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

His solution for x is incorrect. When solved correctly, there are no extraneous solutions.
